A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates AI assistants with the Terraform Cloud API, allowing you to manage your infrastructure through natural conversation. Built with Pydantic models and structured around domain-specific modules, this server is compatible with any MCP-supporting platform including Claude, Claude Code CLI, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Copilot Studio, and others.
- Account Management: Get account details for authenticated users or service accounts.
- Workspace Management: Create, read, update, delete, lock/unlock workspaces.
- Project Management: Create, list, update, and delete projects; manage project tag bindings and move workspaces between projects.
- Run Management: Create runs, list runs, get run details, apply/discard/cancel runs.
- Plan Management: Retrieve plan details and JSON execution output with advanced HTTP redirect handling.
- Apply Management: Get apply details and recover from failed state uploads.
- Organization Management: List, create, update, delete organizations, and view organization entitlements.
- Cost Estimation: Retrieve detailed cost estimates for infrastructure changes including proposed monthly costs, prior costs, resource counts, and usage projections.
- Future Features: Variables management, state versions, and more.
- Python 3.12+
- MCP (includes FastMCP and development tools)

Replace your_terraform_cloud_token
with your actual Terraform Cloud API token.
For other platforms (like Cursor, Copilot Studio, or Glama), follow their platform-specific instructions for adding an MCP server. Most platforms require:
- The server path or command to start the server.
- Environment variables for the Terraform Cloud API token.
- Configuration to auto-start the server when needed.
