### Description (declared)

# dhis2w-mcp

FastMCP server that exposes every `dhis2w-core` plugin as MCP tools. Same service functions as the CLI; different I/O shape.

A connected agent (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …) sees roughly 304 typed tools grouped by plugin: `metadata_*`, `data_aggregate_*`, `data_tracker_*`, `analytics_*`, `route_*`, `user_*`, `apps_*`, `system_*`, `messaging_*`, `files_*`, `maintenance_*`, `customize_*`, `profile_*`, `doctor_*`. Counts age with each release; the generated `docs/tool-reference.md` is the source of truth.

## Install

### From PyPI (recommended)

```bash
# As a global tool — drops `dhis2w-mcp` on $PATH (one-time fetch, instant launches)
uv tool install dhis2w-mcp

# Update to the latest release
uv tool upgrade dhis2w-mcp

# Force re-install (after PyPI publish issues / cache weirdness)
uv tool install --reinstall dhis2w-mcp

# Remove
uv tool uninstall dhis2w-mcp

# Or run on demand without installing — fetches into the uv cache on first run
uvx dhis2w-mcp

# Force a refresh (pulls latest published version, bypasses cache)
uvx --refresh dhis2w-mcp
```

The PyPI distribution name and the binary name match (`dhis2w-mcp` for both), so unlike `dhis2w-cli` (whose binary is `d2w`), no `--from` dance is needed.

### From a workspace checkout (for active development)

```bash
git clone git@github.com:winterop-com/dhis2w-mcp.git
cd dhis2w-mcp
uv sync --all-packages
```

This puts `dhis2w-mcp` on the workspace venv's path. `uv run dhis2w-mcp` from anywhere inside the repo speaks MCP over stdio.

## Configure your MCP client

The server speaks MCP over stdio and reads its DHIS2 connection from either a profile (the workspace's `.dhis2/profiles.toml` / `~/.config/dhis2/profiles.toml`) or environment variables (`DHIS2_URL` + auth — `DHIS2_PASSWORD`, `DHIS2_PAT`, or OAuth2). Pick whichever fits your client.

### Claude Desktop
