About Fortinet MCP
Fortinet MCP is an MCP server published by the GitHub account Servosity. Audit every client FortiGate for firmware, SSL-VPN exposure, admin accounts and license expiry.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the MCP bundle package fortinet-mcp.mcpb at version 0.1.4.
It asks for 5 secrets: FORTINET_API_TOKEN, FORTINET_FMG_API_KEY, FORTINET_CLOUD_API_PASSWORD, FORTINET_MCP_HTTP_TOKEN and PRINTING_PRESS_CLIENT_PROFILE. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
It also needs FORTINET_BASE_URL set before it starts.
Version 0.1.4 was published on 23 October 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 7 automated checks on registry metadata: 4 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
What it asks for
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
FORTINET_BASE_URL | Yes | No | Your FortiGate's REST API root, e.g. https://203.0.113.10:8443/api/v2. |
FORTINET_API_TOKEN | Yes | Yes | The FortiGate REST API admin token (System > Administrators > Create New > REST API Admin). Use a read-only admin profile. |
FORTINET_DEVICES | No | No | Optional. Path to a devices.toml listing every FortiGate the fleet, audit and policies hygiene commands check, each with a token_file. Leave blank to check only the FortiGate above. |
FORTINET_FMG_URL | No | No | Optional. https://<fortimanager> for the read-only fmg commands. Leave blank if you do not use FortiManager. |
FORTINET_FMG_API_KEY | No | Yes | Optional. API key of a FortiManager REST API admin (FortiManager 7.2.2 or later) for the fmg commands. |
FORTINET_CLOUD_API_USER | No | No | Optional. FortiCloud IAM API user (with FortiGate Cloud portal permission) for the read-only cloud commands. |
FORTINET_CLOUD_API_PASSWORD | No | Yes | Optional. Password of the FortiCloud IAM API user. Repeated failed logins lock the FortiCloud account for 15-30 minutes. |
FORTINET_CLOUD_REGION | No | No | Optional. global (default), us, eu or jp: the region your FortiGates were provisioned in. |
FORTINET_CLOUD_ACCOUNT_ID | No | No | Optional. Required only when FortiCloud Organizations are enabled. |
FORTINET_MCP_READ_ONLY | No | No | Optional. Set to 1 to expose only read-only mirrored tools and refuse any non-GET execute call. |
FORTINET_MCP_HTTP_TOKEN | No | Yes | Required only when running the MCP server with --transport http (a remote/hosted deployment); callers must send a matching Authorization: Bearer header. Not needed for the default local stdio transport Claude Desktop uses. |
FORTINET_USER_AGENT | No | No | Optional. Overrides the User-Agent the CLI sends to your FortiGates. Leave blank to use the built-in one. |
PRINTING_PRESS_CLIENT_PROFILE | No | Yes | Only used when the MCP server is bound to a tenant-gated client profile. This connector registers no tenant-gated source, so leave it blank. |
