# AEP MCP Server
Two MCP servers that give Claude (and any MCP-compatible client) natural-language access to Adobe Experience Platform, Adobe Journey Optimizer, and Real-Time CDP.
| Server | File | Tools | Description |
|--------|------|-------|-------------|
| **AEP** (custom-built) | `server.py` | 115+ | Full AEP/AJO API coverage built with FastMCP |
| **RT-CDP** (Adobe official proxy) | `rtcdp_proxy.py` | 18 | Proxies Adobe's official `rtcdp-mcp.adobe.io` server |
---
## Quick Start
### 1. Install dependencies
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
### 2. Configure credentials
Copy the example and fill in your credentials from **Adobe Developer Console → Project → OAuth Server-to-Server**:
```bash
cp orgs.example.json orgs.json
# edit orgs.json with your client_id, client_secret, org_id, sandbox
```
Or use environment variables (single-org fallback):
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env
```
### 3. Register with Claude Code
Copy `.mcp.json.example` to `.mcp.json` and update the paths:
```bash
cp .mcp.json.example .mcp.json
# edit .mcp.json — update /path/to/aep-mcp-server to your actual path
```
Or add manually to `.claude/mcp_servers.json`:
```json
{
"aep": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["/path/to/aep-mcp-server/server.py"]
},
"rtcdp": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["/path/to/aep-mcp-server/rtcdp_proxy.py"]
}
}
```
### 4. Install the pre-commit hook (recommended)
Blocks accidental credential commits:
```bash
python scripts/install_hooks.py
```
### 5. Run
```bash
python server.py # AEP server, default org profile
AEP_PROFILE=MyClient python server.py # start with a specific profile
```

## Multi-Org Configuration
`orgs.json` supports multiple named profiles — useful when working across different Adobe orgs or sandboxes:
```json
{
"default": "ClientA",
"profiles": {
"ClientA": {
"client_id": "...",
"client_secret": "...",
"api_key": "...",
"org_id": "XXXX@AdobeOrg",
"sandbox": "prod",
"sandboxes": {
"dev": "my-sandbox-dev",
"prod": "my-sandbox-prod"
}
},
"ClientB": {
"client_id": "...",
"client_secret": "...",
"api_key": "...",
"org_id": "YYYY@AdobeOrg",
"sandbox": "prod"
}
}
}
```
Switch orgs at runtime with the `switch_org_profile` tool or by setting `AEP_PROFILE` at startup. Token caches are maintained per profile.

## Server 1 — AEP MCP (`server.py`)
Built with [FastMCP](https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp). All tools accept an optional `sandbox` parameter; if omitted, the active profile's default sandbox is used.

## Server 2 — RT-CDP Proxy (`rtcdp_proxy.py`)
A lightweight stdio→HTTPS proxy that forwards tool calls to **Adobe's official Real-Time CDP MCP server** at `rtcdp-mcp.adobe.io`. Auth headers are sourced from the active `orgs.json` profile, so `switch_org_profile` works across both servers.
Configure the upstream URL via `.env` (optional — defaults to Adobe's endpoint):
```
RTCDP_MCP_URL=https://rtcdp-mcp.adobe.io/mcp
```
> **Note:** Adobe's RT-CDP MCP server is a gated feature. Contact your Adobe representative for access.
### Tools (proxied from Adobe)
`search_audiences` · `preview_audience_membership` · `inspect_audience_evaluation_jobs` · `inspect_audience_export_jobs` · `search_destination_connectors` · `search_destination_accounts` · `search_destination_flows` · `search_destination_input_connections` · `search_destination_output_connections` · `search_source_connectors` · `search_source_accounts` · `search_source_flows` · `search_source_input_connections` · `search_source_output_connections` · `search_identity_namespaces` · `search_merge_policies` · `search_organizations` · `inspect_flow_runs`

## Adding a New Tool Module
1. Create `tools/new_domain.py` with a `register(mcp)` function
2. Add to `server.py`: import it and call `new_domain.register(mcp)`
3. Follow the tool pattern in `CLAUDE.md`
## Auth Flow
`auth.py` checks `orgs.json` profiles first, then falls back to `.env` environment variables.
- **OAuth S2S** (recommended): set `client_id` + `client_secret` — token auto-refreshes before expiry
- **Static token** (dev/testing): set `access_token` — no auto-refresh
## Requirements
```
mcp[cli]>=1.3.0
httpx>=0.27.0
python-dotenv>=1.0.0
```
