What is MCP Servers for Teams?

This project provides examples and configurations for deploying and using Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in a team environment. It includes deployment configurations (e.g., Kubernetes) and custom server implementations, with a focus on the Git MCP server.

How to use MCP Servers for Teams?

For local development, install the MCP server directly using pip and configure it in your AI assistant (e.g., Claude Desktop). For team-wide access, consider using a custom integration service with REST APIs, container-per-user deployments, or the sidecar pattern. The README provides detailed instructions and examples for each approach.

Key features of MCP Servers for Teams

  • Kubernetes deployment configurations

  • Custom MCP server implementations

  • Multi-repository support for Git MCP server

  • Team-wide access strategies (REST APIs, containers, sidecars)

  • Integration examples with AI assistants (e.g., Claude Desktop, Hypothetical Cursor)

Use cases of MCP Servers for Teams

  • Enabling team access to Git repositories through AI assistants

  • Centralizing access control and permissions for MCP servers

  • Sharing computational resources for expensive AI operations

  • Creating custom team-specific AI tooling that integrates with internal systems

FAQ from MCP Servers for Teams

"Not a valid Git repository" Error

The Git MCP server requires specifying a valid Git repository for each operation. Use the git_init tool to create a repository first, then specify this path in subsequent operations.

How to resolve communication issues?

Check that the MCP server is running, verify your client configuration points to the correct path or URL, and ensure you have appropriate permissions for the repository directory.

What are the recommended next steps?

Explore custom implementation of MCP servers that can work in a team environment, investigate WebSocket or gRPC protocols for network communication, develop authentication and authorization layers, and create client adapters that can interface with network-accessible MCP servers.

How does the Git MCP server handle multiple repositories?

The Git MCP server can work with any number of repositories. Repositories can be discovered from the client workspace, and each operation requires a repo_path parameter to specify which repository to use.

What are some approaches for team-wide access to MCP servers?

Consider using a custom integration service with REST APIs, container-per-user deployments, or the sidecar pattern.
