How to install TrueNAS SCALE
Copy-paste configuration for popular MCP clients.
TRUENAS_MCP_TARGETrequiredTrueNAS host to manage, optionally `host:port`. Requires TrueNAS SCALE 25.04 or later.
TRUENAS_MCP_ALLOW_PLAINTEXTServe MCP without TLS. Set here because the listener is published on loopback only; drop it and supply TRUENAS_MCP_TLS_CERT/KEY if the port is reachable from elsewhere.
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.
