Environment variables
  • TRUENAS_MCP_TARGETrequiredTrueNAS host to manage, optionally `host:port`. Requires TrueNAS SCALE 25.04 or later.
  • TRUENAS_MCP_TARGET_INSECUREAccept the TrueNAS certificate unverified while keeping the connection encrypted. TrueNAS ships a self-signed certificate for `CN=localhost`, so no address you can reach it by will validate.
  • TRUENAS_MCP_ENABLE_WRITESExpose the mutating tools. Read-only by default; unrecoverable operations stay unreachable either way.

A starting point — check the repository for exact arguments and setup. Restart your client after editing the config.

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
