Model Context Protocol server for Administrate dashboards (Rails engine)
View on GitHub ↗A Rails engine that exposes Administrate dashboards over the Model Context Protocol, so an MCP client such as Claude can list, show and search your admin data, and run the write actions you opt in, with the same permissions the admin UI enforces.

Administrate dashboards are built for a person clicking through a browser. This gem reads the same dashboard declarations, the same Pundit policies and the same scoped queries, and publishes them as MCP tools, so an LLM client can answer questions about your admin data and, where you allow it, act on it, without a second implementation of your authorization rules. Nothing in the engine knows about your application; everything host-specific goes through Administrate::MCP.configure.
- Three generic tools built from every Administrate dashboard: adminresourcelistresources, adminresourcelist, adminresourceshow. - Write actions declared per dashboard with mcpaction, each published as its own tool, gated by the write scope (an API key with write access, or an OAuth token granted it) and the resource's own authorization predicate on the loaded record. - Three ways to authenticate a caller: API keys stored as a digest, an external identity provider through identityfallback (a Cloudflare Access verifier ships with the gem), and an optional built-in OAuth 2.1 ser
