What it does
The Python server gives read-only access to Yandex Cloud resources: full read coverage for Compute, VPC and Disks or Snapshots. It works at folder, cloud and organization level, with automatic scope detection and navigation hints. Authentication uses an IAM token and folder ID from environment variables, or interactively right in a Claude conversation. It can run via uv for development or as a Podman container for production.
Who it is for. For engineers who want to safely browse Yandex Cloud resources through an agent without the risk of changing anything.
Good fit when
- You want a quick look at VMs, networks or disks in Yandex Cloud
- You want an overview of resources at the whole-organization level, not just one folder
Not a fit when
- You need to create or change resources: the server is read-only
- You need the official Yandex Cloud server
Example request
Show all VMs and networks in my Yandex CloudMCP
- Transport
- stdio
- Authentication
- API key
Environment variables
YC_TOKENrequired, secret- Yandex Cloud IAM token
YC_FOLDER_IDrequired- The default Yandex Cloud folder ID
Limitations
The project explicitly calls itself unofficial, maintained by one author, with no pushes for over a year. It needs a Yandex Cloud IAM token, which should be issued with minimal read-only rights.
How to disable. Stop the container or the uv run mcp_server.py process and remove the server from your MCP client config.
FAQ
Can the server change anything in the cloud?

It gives two run options: uv for development and Podman for production, a Claude AI Desktop config snippet, and example setup and usage phrases.
