# cerebro-mcp

MCP server for [Cerebro](https://cerebrohq.com) — VFX/animation project management platform.

Provides AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, etc.) with access to Cerebro tasks, messages, attachments, statuses, and more via the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io).

## Installation

### Claude Code

Add to your MCP settings:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cerebro": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["cerebro-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Manual

```bash
pip install cerebro-mcp
```

## Authentication

The server tries to connect automatically in this order:

1. **Environment variables** — `CEREBRO_HOST`, `CEREBRO_USER`, `CEREBRO_PASSWORD`
2. **Cerebro Desktop** — if the desktop client is running and logged in
3. **Saved credentials** — from a previous `login` call

If none work, the server starts without a connection. Use the `login` tool or CLI:

```bash
# Interactive login from terminal
cerebro-mcp login

# Or via environment variables
CEREBRO_HOST=cerebro.studio.com CEREBRO_USER=john CEREBRO_PASSWORD=secret cerebro-mcp
```

For secure credential storage, install with keyring support:

```bash
pip install cerebro-mcp[keyring]
```
