Catalog onlyCatalog onlySTDIO

Overview

Azure DevOps MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a reference server implementation that allows AI assistants to interact with Azure DevOps resources programmatically.

To use Azure DevOps MCP, clone the repository, install the dependencies, configure the environment variables, and start the server. You can then interact with Azure DevOps using the provided endpoints.

  • Integration with Azure DevOps using the official Node.js SDK - Support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) - Project management operations - Work item management - Repository operations - Code search capabilities
  1. Automating project management tasks in Azure DevOps.
  2. Managing work items programmatically.
  3. Performing repository operations and code searches through an AI assistant.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect Azure DevOps MCP (Model Context Protocol) in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-azure-devops-mcp-kevinmeyvaert"
      ]
    }
  }
}
