| 1 | +# AureusERP MCP Plugin |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This plugin adds MCP servers to AureusERP so AI clients (MCP Inspector, coding agents, ERP assistants) can use ERP tools securely. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## What this plugin provides |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Two MCP servers are exposed: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### Dev Agent Server |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +| Transport | Endpoint / Command | Auth | |
| 12 | +|---|---|---| |
| 13 | +| **stdio** (artisan) | `php artisan mcp:dev` | None — local process | |
| 14 | +| **HTTP** | `POST /mcp/dev` | OAuth Bearer token | |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Use the stdio transport for local AI coding agents (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, etc.) via `.mcp.json`. Use the HTTP transport for remote or OAuth-authenticated clients. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +Tools: documentation search, plugin introspection, route discovery, model inspection, Filament resource listing, API resource discovery. |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +### ERP Agent Server |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +| Transport | Endpoint | Auth | |
| 23 | +|---|---|---| |
| 24 | +| **HTTP** | `POST /mcp/erp` | OAuth Bearer token | |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +READ-ONLY business insights (34 tools across Sales, Purchases, Invoices, Accounting, Inventory, Projects). No stdio transport — this server requires authentication. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +OAuth discovery + registration endpoints are also exposed (via `Mcp::oauthRoutes()`): |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +- `GET /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/{path?}` |
| 31 | +- `GET /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server/{path?}` |
| 32 | +- `POST /oauth/register` |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## Requirements |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +- PHP `^8.2` |
| 37 | +- Laravel `^11` |
| 38 | +- Filament `^4` |
| 39 | +- `laravel/mcp` `^0.5` |
| 40 | +- `laravel/passport` `^12` |
| 41 | +- AureusERP plugin manager |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +## Install |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +First, require the package via Composer: |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +```bash |
| 48 | +composer require aureuserp/mcp |
| 49 | +``` |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +You can then complete the installation in two ways: |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### Option 1: Via Command Line |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +Run: |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +```bash |
| 58 | +php artisan mcp:install |
| 59 | +``` |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +This command does the setup automatically: |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +- publishes CORS config (`config/cors.php`) if not already published |
| 64 | +- publishes MCP OAuth authorization view (`mcp-views`) |
| 65 | +- runs Passport API install scaffold (`install:api --passport`) |
| 66 | +- ensures `config/auth.php` has MCP API guard/provider |
| 67 | +- configures Passport authorization view from the MCP plugin service provider |
| 68 | +- clears caches |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +### Option 2: Via Web Plugin Manager |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +Navigate to the Plugin Manager in your AureusERP admin panel and install the MCP plugin from there. |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +## Plugin install hook |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +If you install via plugin manager or composer, setup is auto-triggered from the plugin install command. |
| 77 | + |
| 78 | +## Tool catalog |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +### Dev Agent server |

| 170 | +## Security |
| 171 | + |
| 172 | +All ERP Agent server tools are **READ-ONLY**. They only retrieve data — no create, update, or delete operations. This ensures AI assistants can query business data safely without making changes to the system. |
| 173 | + |
| 174 | +## Example Usage |
| 175 | + |
| 176 | +### Connecting via an MCP client |
| 177 | + |
| 178 | +Both servers can be registered in any MCP-compatible editor or AI agent that supports `mcp.json` / `.mcp.json` configuration (VS Code, Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, etc.). |
| 179 | + |
| 180 | +```jsonc |
| 181 | +{ |
| 182 | + "servers": { |
| 183 | + "aureus-dev-mcp-server": { |
| 184 | + "command": "php", |
| 185 | + "args": [ |
| 186 | + "artisan", |
| 187 | + "mcp:dev" |
| 188 | + ] |
| 189 | + }, |
| 190 | + "aureus-erp-mcp-server": { |
| 191 | + "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8000/mcp/erp", |
| 192 | + "type": "http" |
| 193 | + } |
| 194 | + } |
| 195 | +} |
| 196 | +``` |
| 197 | + |
| 198 | +> **File location** — place this in `.vscode/mcp.json` (VS Code / GitHub Copilot), `.cursor/mcp.json` (Cursor), `.mcp.json` (Claude Code / project root), or wherever your editor reads its MCP server config. |
| 199 | +
|
| 200 | +| Server | Key | Transport | Auth | |
| 201 | +|---|---|---|---| |
| 202 | +| Dev Agent | `aureus-dev-mcp-server` | stdio — spawned via `php artisan mcp:dev` | None — local process | |
| 203 | +| ERP Agent | `aureus-erp-mcp-server` | HTTP — `POST /mcp/erp` | OAuth Bearer token | |
| 204 | + |
| 205 | +The Dev server starts automatically as a subprocess — no OAuth setup required. The ERP server connects over HTTP using the URL of your running application; ensure it is authenticated via OAuth before use. |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | +This is the same pattern used by [Laravel Boost](https://laravel.com/docs/12.x/boost) (`boost:mcp`). |
| 208 | + |
| 209 | +### Using with AI Assistants via HTTP (ERP Agent) |
| 210 | + |
| 211 | +Ask natural language questions: |
| 212 | + |
| 213 | +``` |
| 214 | +- "How many orders did we get this week?" |
| 215 | +- "What is our total accounts receivable?" |
| 216 | +- "Which products are low on stock?" |
| 217 | +- "Show me our active projects" |
| 218 | +- "What are the overdue invoices?" |
| 219 | +``` |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | +### Using with Coding Agents via stdio (Dev Agent) |
| 222 | + |
| 223 | +``` |
| 224 | +- "How do I create a new plugin?" |
| 225 | +- "What routes does the Sales plugin expose?" |
| 226 | +- "What are the fillable fields on the Order model?" |
| 227 | +- "List all Filament resources for the Inventory plugin" |
| 228 | +- "What API resource classes exist for accounts?" |
| 229 | +``` |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | +### Using MCP Inspector |
| 232 | + |
| 233 | +```bash |
| 234 | +# Test Dev Agent server (stdio) |
| 235 | +php artisan mcp:inspector aureuserp-dev |
| 236 | + |
| 237 | +# Test Dev Agent server (HTTP) |
| 238 | +php artisan mcp:inspector mcp/dev |
| 239 | + |
| 240 | +# Test ERP Agent server (HTTP) |
| 241 | +php artisan mcp:inspector mcp/erp |
| 242 | +``` |
