MCP Servers

Develocity provides two Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that connect AI clients to your build data. The Develocity MCP Server analyzes individual builds; the Develocity Analytics MCP Server queries aggregate data across your organization.

Develocity MCP Server

The Develocity MCP Server gives an AI client direct access to build context: exception details, stack traces, test outcomes, cache performance, and more. Developers and build engineers use it to investigate build failures, identify test patterns, and compare builds without leaving their AI client. The server bundles skills: guided workflows that activate automatically to help the AI client make effective use of available data.

Requires Develocity 2025.3 or higher. Follow the installation instructions to enable it.

Investigate Build Issues

Access exception details, stack traces, and environment context to understand recent build failures.

Advanced Failure Analytics

Use Develocity’s failure grouping (automatic clustering of related build failures) to identify root causes and common failure patterns.

Analyze Test Patterns

Identify flaky tests, discover failure trends, and analyze test performance across your test suites.

Monitor Build Performance

Query execution times, resource usage, network activity, and build caching effectiveness.

Compare Build Scans

Compare two builds to pinpoint input differences and diagnose cache misses.

Explore Build Data

Filter across projects, users, build outcomes, time, and custom tags for Gradle, Maven, sbt, npm, and Python builds.

Develocity Analytics MCP Server

The Develocity Analytics MCP Server gives an AI client access to aggregate build data across your organization. It’s designed for organization-wide queries: dependency risk assessment, build performance trends, and CI stability analysis. Like the Develocity MCP Server, it bundles skills that activate automatically to guide the AI client’s queries.

Requires Develocity 2025.4 or higher with Athena Data Export enabled, or Develocity Reporting Kit 2.1 or higher. Follow the installation instructions to enable it.

Analyze Aggregate Build Data

Query and analyze large batches of build data across your organization.

Identify Dependency Risks

Detect projects using outdated or vulnerable dependency versions.

Monitor Build Performance Trends

Analyze configuration times, task durations, and build performance patterns over time.

Assess CI Stability

Identify failure patterns, prioritize fixes, and understand the impact of failing builds across users and projects.

Choosing an MCP Server

Both servers work independently. You don’t need both to get started. Some data, such as test results and failure groups, is only available from the Develocity MCP Server.
