Hi All,
I was exploring on UiPath Command MCP server for client POC but there is no such info or documentation available for Command MCP server
Anyone has any idea on Command MCP server how it works or any simple use case which will help!
UiPath Command MCP server is very new and still in early preview, which is why public documentation is limited. Itβs based on Model Context Protocol and is meant to let AI agents safely execute UiPath CLI commands (like pack, deploy, run) in a controlled way. A simple POC use case is an AI assistant triggering CI/CD actions such as packaging and deploying a process without giving full shell access.
Command MCP Server lets UiPath start an external MCP server via a command line. Orchestrator runs the command, discovers the tools the server exposes, and makes them usable in workflows. A simple use case is registering a custom AI or service as a Command MCP Server so your automations can call its tools.
Thanks for your quick response and inputs on Command MCP server.
I have experimented on my own with Model Context Protocol (MCP) to really understand how Command MCP works end-to-end. In particular, I tested the GitHub Command MCP example along with the MCP Inspector tool:
1.Command MCP essentially exposes CLI commands as tools.
Instead of calling REST APIs, we wrap system/CLI commands and present them as structured tools to MCP clients.
2. Using the GitHub Command MCP server we can simply pass the command and authentication we donβt need to publish any package we can simply feed external package or command
3. tools dynamically appear in MCP inspector tool and in UiPath MCP server
4. we can build our own mcp server as well using NPM or python
Happy to discuss further if anyone else is exploring Command MCP or building custom MCP tools!
