- Exposes three read‑only resources: duplicacy://status, duplicacy://progress, duplicacy://health
- Provides four tools: get_backup_status, get_backup_history, list_snapshots, get_prune_status
- Single JSON‑RPC endpoint (/mcp) for all interactions
- Supports both HTTP and stdio transport
- Lightweight bridge between Duplicacy Prometheus exporter and MCP clients
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Duplicacy McpCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
You can run it via Docker Compose using the drumsergio/duplicacy-mcp image or install it globally with npm install -g duplicacy-mcp and then run duplicacy-mcp. Configuration is done through environment variables (e.g., DUPLICACY_EXPORTER_URL). The server listens on 127.0.0.1:8080 by default with HTTP transport, or you can set TRANSPORT=stdio for stdio mode.

What you get
| Type | What for | MCP URI / Tool id |
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
| Resources | Browse backup status, progress, and health read-only | duplicacy://status<br>duplicacy://progress<br>duplicacy://health |
| Tools | Query backup history, list snapshots, and check prune status | get_backup_status<br>get_backup_history<br>list_snapshots<br>get_prune_status |
Everything is exposed over a single JSON-RPC endpoint (/mcp).
LLMs / Agents can: initialize -> readResource -> listTools -> callTool ... and so on.
---
Quick-start (Docker Compose)
services:
duplicacy-mcp:
image: drumsergio/duplicacy-mcp:latest
ports:
- "127.0.0.1:8080:8080"
environment:
- DUPLICACY_EXPORTER_URL=http://duplicacy-exporter:9750
> Security note: The HTTP transport listens on 127.0.0.1:8080 by default. If you need to expose it on a network, place it behind a reverse proxy with authentication.
Install via npm (stdio transport)
npx duplicacy-mcp
Or install globally:
npm install -g duplicacy-mcp
duplicacy-mcp
This downloads the pre-built Go binary from GitHub Releases for your platform and runs it with stdio transport. Requires at least one published release.
Local build
git clone https://github.com/GeiserX/duplicacy-mcp
cd duplicacy-mcp
(optional) create .env from the sample
cp .env.example .env && $EDITOR .env
go run ./cmd/server
Configuration
| Variable | Default | Description |
|--------------------------|----------------------------|------------------------------------------------------|
| DUPLICACY_EXPORTER_URL | http://localhost:9750 | Duplicacy Prometheus exporter URL (without trailing /)|
| LISTEN_ADDR | 127.0.0.1:8080 | HTTP listen address (Docker sets 0.0.0.0:8080) |
| TRANSPORT | _(empty = HTTP)_ | Set to stdio for stdio transport |
Put them in a .env file (from .env.example) or set them in the environment.
Testing
Tested with Inspector and it is currently fully working. Before making a PR, make sure this MCP server behaves well via this medium.
