What is the Casdoor (IAM) MCP Server?
Connect your Casdoor IAM instance to any AI agent to streamline your identity and access management workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- User Management — Create, update, delete, and retrieve detailed profiles for users across your organizations using the
add_user,update_user, anddelete_usertools. - Organization Oversight — List all organizations and fetch specific configuration details for your IAM hierarchy with
list_organizationsandget_organization. - Application Control — Query and manage applications registered within your Casdoor instance using
list_applicationsandget_application. - Identity Inspection — Instantly retrieve the profile of the currently authenticated user to verify permissions via
get_userinfo.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server

Frequently asked questions
How do I list all users belonging to a specific organization?
Use the list_users tool and provide the organization name in the 'owner' parameter. The agent will return a list of all users registered under that organization.
What format should I use to fetch a specific user's details?
When using the get_user tool, the ID must be formatted as <organization>/<username>. For example, to find user 'alice' in the 'built-in' organization, use 'built-in/alice'.
Can I manage applications and organizations as well?
Yes. You can use list_organizations and get_organization to manage your hierarchy, and list_applications or get_application to inspect app-specific configurations.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
