A server implementing Model Coupling Protocol (MCP) capabilities for HDF5 file operations and Slurm job management.
Features
HDF5 file operations:
- Read datasets
- List file contents
Slurm job management:
- Submit jobs
- Check job status
Node Hardware Operations
- Get CPU information
- Get memory information
- Get disk information
- Get comprehensive system information
Compression Operations
- Compress string data with gzip or zlib
- Compress files with gzip or zlib
- Decompress data
Initialization
Once you clone this reponsitory cd into it
After this hwe will create a virtual enviornment and install all dependincies:
uv venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate # On Windows: .venvScriptsactivate
uv pip install -e .
uv pip install -e ".[test]"
Running
To startup the server run:
python -m src.server
This will autoclocate the server at http://localhost:8000.
Endpoints
POST /mcp
: Main endpoint for MCP requestsGET /health
: Health check endpoint
Examples:
import httpx
async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client:
# Read a dataset
response = await client.post("http://localhost:8000/mcp", json={
"capability": "hdf5",
"action": "read_dataset",
"parameters": {
"file_path": "/path/to/data.h5",
"dataset_path": "/path/to/dataset"
}
})
# List contents
response = await client.post("http://localhost:8000/mcp", json={
"capability": "hdf5",
"action": "list_contents",
"parameters": {
"file_path": "/path/to/data.h5",
"group_path": "/"
}
})
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/mcp
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
-d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"method": "mcp/listTools",
"params": {},
"id": "1"
}'
