About Argo Workflows MCP Server
Connect your Argo Workflows cluster to any AI agent and take full control of your infrastructure orchestration through natural conversation.
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and Argo Workflows tool infrastructure. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution. deployable to any Node.js host in one command.
What you can do
- Active Workflows — List and query all running, pending, or recently completed workflow executions across your Kubernetes namespaces
- Deep Inspection — Dive into specific workflow instances to inspect their precise resource trees, node statuses, and pod parameters to catch failures
- Templates & Crons — Browse parameterized, reusable WorkflowTemplates and analyze recurring CronWorkflows orchestrating scheduled jobs
- Historical Archives — Search archived workflows that hit your database to understand historical infrastructure patterns
The Argo Workflows MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Mastra AI in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
