ServiceNow Fluent MCP服务器

Fluent MCP Server

An MCP server and AI skill suite that brings ServiceNow Fluent SDK (@servicenow/sdk) capabilities, API specifications, code snippets, and security reviews to AI-assisted development environments.

Built for @servicenow/sdk@v4.14.0.

Key Features

• 18 MCP Tools — 14 ServiceNow SDK CLI command tools (sdk_info, init, build, deploy, transform, dependencies, download, clean, pack, explain, query, cicd_fluent_app, cicd_fluent_test, fluent_exec_script) plus 4 resource/auth tools (get-api-spec, get-snippet, get-instruct, check_auth_status).
• 76 ServiceNow Metadata Types — Packaged API specs (sn-spec://), authoring instructions (sn-instruct://), runnable snippets (sn-snippet://), and workflow prompts (coding_in_fluent, create_custom_ui).
• AI Agent Skills — Built-in skills (fluent-cli, fluent-security-review, fluent-general-review, fluent-perf-review, and fluent-domain-separation-review) installable as a plugin for Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, and other skill-enabled agents.
• Lazy Auto-Authentication — Resolves and caches an SDK auth profile matching SN_INSTANCE_URL on first use.
• Explicit Working Directory Resolution — Resolves project paths in strict order: workingDirectory argument → session (init_fluent_app) → FLUENT_MCP_WORKING_DIR → actionable error. Never guesses from process.cwd().
• Dual-Era MCP Protocol — Serves both current and legacy MCP protocol revisions over stdio from a single handler set, with zero server-initiated requests.

MCP Setup

Requirements: Node.js >=22.23.2 and npm >=10.9.8.

Add @modesty/fluent-mcp to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fluent-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modesty/fluent-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FLUENT_MCP_WORKING_DIR": "/absolute/path/to/your/fluent-project",
        "SN_INSTANCE_URL": "https://your-instance.service-now.com",
        "SN_AUTH_TYPE": "oauth"
      }
    }
  }
}

Client Config Locations:

• Claude Desktop (macOS): ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Claude Code CLI: claude mcp add fluent-mcp -- npx -y @modesty/fluent-mcp
• VS Code Copilot: .vscode/mcp.json (uses "mcp": { "servers": { ... } } instead of "mcpServers")
• Cursor / Windsurf / Gemini CLI: Add under mcpServers in your client's MCP settings file

Environment Variables

Authentication Tip: To register an instance profile manually, run: npx @servicenow/sdk auth --add <instance-url> --type <basic|oauth> --alias <alias> Since @servicenow/sdk 4.14.0, profiles are stored encrypted in credentials.enc with only the key in the OS keychain. The first auth lookup migrates existing keychain profiles silently; afterwards, profiles added with an older now-sdk are not visible to this server. If the store cannot be decrypted, check_auth_status reports it, and you must run now-sdk auth --delete all in a terminal and add the profile again. Do not reset for any other store error: a file written by a newer now-sdk needs that newer SDK, and a keyring write failure needs the OS keyring unlocked. For headless CI/CD pipelines, set SN_SDK_NODE_ENV=SN_SDK_CI_INSTALL along with SN_SDK_INSTANCE_URL and SN_SDK_USER/SN_SDK_USER_PWD or SN_SDK_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID/SN_SDK_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET.

MCPB Bundle (Optional)

Run npm run bundle to build a self-contained fluent-mcp-<version>.mcpb archive with dist/, res/, and production dependencies for MCPB-compatible desktop hosts.

Skills (fluent-skillset)

This repository ships standalone AI agent skills under skills/ packaged as the fluent-skillset plugin.
