HaloPSA MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with HaloPSA, featuring a decision tree architecture for efficient tool loading.
One-Click Deployment
[!IMPORTANT] Before you click: this server depends on
@wyre-technology/node-halopsa, which is hosted on the GitHub Packages npm registry. GitHub Packages has no anonymous access — even though the package is public, everynpm installneeds a token. The cloud builder runsnpm installfor you, so you must give it one, or the build fails withnpm error 401 Unauthorized ... npm.pkg.github.com.
- Create a GitHub Personal Access Token with the
read:packagesscope (classic token). Any GitHub account works — you do not need to be a member of thewyre-technologyorg to read its public packages.- Add it as a build variable when prompted by the deploy flow:
- Cloudflare Workers → set a build variable named
NODE_AUTH_TOKENto your PAT (Workers → Settings → Build → Variables and Secrets).- DigitalOcean App Platform → set an encrypted env var named
GITHUB_TOKENwith scope Build Time to your PAT (the.do/app.yamlalready declares it).
[!NOTE] The DigitalOcean target builds the full Docker image and runs the complete MCP server over HTTP — this is the recommended path for operators. The Cloudflare Workers target is currently a thin entrypoint (the
/mcproute returns 501 until the Workers transport adapter lands) and is best suited to gateway-style deployments; for a full self-hosted server prefer DigitalOcean or the prebuilt container image (ghcr.io/wyre-technology/halopsa-mcp).
Architecture
This MCP server uses a hierarchical tool loading approach instead of exposing all tools upfront:
- Navigation Phase: Initially exposes only a navigation tool (
halopsa_navigate) - Domain Selection: User selects a domain (tickets, clients, assets, agents, invoices)
- Domain Tools: Server exposes domain-specific tools after selection
- Lazy Loading: Domain handlers and the HaloPSA client are loaded on-demand
This architecture provides:
- Reduced cognitive load (fewer tools to choose from)
- Faster initial load times
- Better organization of related operations
- Clear navigation state
Interactive Ticket Card (MCP Apps)
halopsa_tickets_get renders as an interactive card in MCP Apps hosts
(Claude Desktop/web) with an in-card "Add note" round-trip via
halopsa_tickets_add_action; plain-JSON behavior is unchanged in other hosts.
The card is neutral by default and brandable via window.__BRAND__ injection
or MCP_BRAND_* env vars (MCP_BRAND_NAME, MCP_BRAND_LOGO_URL,
MCP_BRAND_PRIMARY_COLOR, MCP_BRAND_ACCENT_COLOR, MCP_BRAND_BG,
MCP_BRAND_TEXT) — no rebuild needed.
Installation
This package is published to the GitHub Packages npm registry, which requires a token even for public packages. Authenticate once, then install:
# Authenticate npm to GitHub Packages (token needs the read:packages scope)
export NODE_AUTH_TOKEN=$(gh auth token) # or a PAT with read:packages
npm install @wyre-technology/halopsa-mcp
The repo's .npmrc already points the @wyre-technology scope at GitHub Packages and
reads the token from NODE_AUTH_TOKEN, so no further config is needed.
Configuration
Set the following environment variables:
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
HALOPSA_CLIENT_ID |
Yes | OAuth 2.0 Client ID |
HALOPSA_CLIENT_SECRET |
Yes | OAuth 2.0 Client Secret |
HALOPSA_TENANT |
One of | Tenant name (e.g., yourcompany) |
HALOPSA_BASE_URL |
these | Explicit base URL (e.g., https://yourcompany.halopsa.com) |

Example Workflow
User: Check my tickets
Claude: [calls halopsa_navigate with domain="tickets"]
-> Navigated to tickets domain. Available tools: ...
User: List open tickets
Claude: [calls halopsa_tickets_list with open_only=true]
-> [ticket list results]
User: Now show me clients
Claude: [calls halopsa_back]
-> Navigated back to main menu.
[calls halopsa_navigate with domain="clients"]
-> Navigated to clients domain.
Rate Limiting
HaloPSA has a rate limit of 500 requests per 3-minute window. The underlying @asachs01/node-halopsa client handles this automatically with request throttling.
