grafana-mcp

Grafana's official MCP server (mcp-grafana) packaged as a container image for cluster0, served over streamable-HTTP so the Hermes agent (namespace ai-0) can call it as an HTTP MCP server.

What's in this repo

File Purpose
Dockerfile Multi-stage: fetches the pinned upstream release binary from GitHub (sha256-verified against the release's own checksums file) and copies it into scratch (the binary is fully static).
.gitea/workflows/build.yaml Builds + pushes gitea.williammiceli.systems/hermes/grafana-mcp:v<version> (+ latest). Triggers: push to main, weekly Mon 06:00 UTC (lands before the cluster0 image-update cron at Mon 13:00 UTC), and manual dispatch. Skips if the tag already exists.

The upstream version is pinned via the MCP_GRAFANA_VERSION build-arg (default v1.1.0); the workflow resolves the newest GitHub release and skips the build when it's already published.

Deployment (cluster0)

Manifests: William/Kubernetes_Cluster0, app dir cluster0 (Personal)/#active/#applications/ai-0 (Hermes Agent)/ai-0-1 (Grafana MCP)/, namespace ai-0-1.

Runtime env (set by the Deployment, from the server's own Infisical-managed secret — never baked into the image):

Var Value
GRAFANA_URL http://grafana-service.personal-0.svc.cluster.local
GRAFANA_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN Grafana service-account token (Infisical project ai-0-1)
ALLOWED_HOSTS (Deployment env, read by args) grafana-mcp-service.ai-0-1.svc.cluster.local

The service is ClusterIP-only (no Ingress/NodePort): it exposes Will's Grafana instance, so only in-cluster consumers can reach it. Hermes consumes it via http://grafana-mcp-service.ai-0-1.svc.cluster.local:3000/mcp.

Grafana service account

Create in Grafana (Administration → Service Accounts) with the Editor built-in role (upstream-recommended quick setup; covers all read + most write tools) or granular RBAC scopes, then add a token and store it as GRAFANA_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN in Infisical project ai-0-1 (env prod).

Registry auth for pushes

The workflow uses a scoped PAT (write:package) stored as repo Actions secret REGISTRY_TOKEN — Gitea's container registry rejects scoped token requests from the Actions job token (upstream #23642).
