Kibana Mcp

Please install the `kibana-mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Install Python 3.10+** — Python 3.10 or newer is required to run kibana-mcp. (https://www.python.org/)
- **Prepare Kibana access credentials** — Set up access to your Kibana instance. KIBANA_URL is required. Authentication can use an API key, basic auth, or anonymous access. API key auth is recommended for agents.

Optional prerequisites:
- Install kibana-mcp or use uvx — Preferred portable run path is via uvx. Alternatively, install the package with pip. Run: `pip install kibana-mcp` (https://pypi.org/project/kibana-mcp/)

Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `uvx`
- args: ["kibana-mcp"]
- required environment variables:
  - `KIBANA_URL`: Kibana base URL. (example: `<your-kibana-url>`)
- optional environment variables:
  - `ELASTICSEARCH_URL`: Direct Elasticsearch endpoint. If unset, Elasticsearch requests go through the Kibana Console proxy. (example: `<your-elasticsearch-url>`)
  - `KIBANA_API_KEY`: Elasticsearch API key in `ApiKey base64(id:api_key)` format. Recommended for agents; takes priority over basic auth. (example: `<your-api-key>`)
  - `KIBANA_USERNAME`: HTTP Basic auth username, used if API key is not set. (example: `<your-username>`)
  - `KIBANA_PASSWORD`: HTTP Basic auth password, used with KIBANA_USERNAME if API key is not set. (example: `<your-password>`)
  - `KIBANA_SSL_VERIFY`: Whether to verify SSL certificates; `true` by default, or set to `false` for self-signed certificates. (example: `<true-or-false>`)

Note: Auth priority is ApiKey > Basic > anonymous. The README also shows a Docker run option, but the simplest portable MCP config uses stdio via `uvx kibana-mcp`. If direct Elasticsearch access is available, setting ELASTICSEARCH_URL improves performance.

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
