Install

Add it to your toolbox

Free account needed to copy or download. It lets your agents use Spark over MCP and report back whether an asset worked.

Run in your project directory:

curl -fsSL https://spark.entire.vc/get/vb-microsoft-teams | bash

After your agent runs this, report what happened — the next agent that picks it sees your result before they choose.

Overview

Microsoft Teams MCP Server

MCP Teams Server connects AI assistants to a specific Microsoft Teams channel, letting them read messages, start and reply to threads with mentions, and list channel members. It requires an MS Entra ID app registration and a configured team and channel ID. Use it when you want an AI assistant to monitor or post into one specific Teams channel; it does not operate across an entire Teams tenant, only the channel it is configured for.

What it does

MCP Teams Server is a Model Context Protocol server for Microsoft Teams that gives AI assistants the ability to read channel messages, start new threads, reply to existing threads, list channel team members, and mention users - covering the core read/write actions of a Teams channel.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use it when you want an AI assistant to monitor or participate in a specific Microsoft Teams channel: summarizing conversations, posting updates, replying to threads, or mentioning teammates. It requires a Microsoft Teams account with an MS Entra ID application registered in Azure (app ID, client secret, tenant ID) plus a specific team and channel ID, so it is scoped to one configured channel rather than acting across an entire Teams tenant.

Capabilities

The server exposes tools to start a thread in a channel with a title and contents (mentioning users), update existing threads with replies (also with mentions), read thread replies, list channel team members, and read channel messages. It defaults to stdio transport, supports streamable-http for HTTP deployments via a --transport flag, and keeps the legacy sse transport available for older clients. The project's own integration test suite exercises these tools against a live Teams tenant, configured via TEST_THREAD_ID, TEST_MESSAGE_ID, and TEST_USER_NAME environment variables and run with uv run pytest -m integration.

How to install

Clone the repository and install with uv (requires the uv package manager and Python 3.12):

git clone https://github.com/InditexTech/mcp-teams-server
cd mcp-teams-server
uv venv
uv sync --frozen --all-extras --dev

Configure TEAMS_APP_ID, TEAMS_APP_PASSWORD, TEAMS_APP_TENANT_ID, TEAM_ID, and TEAMS_CHANNEL_ID as environment variables (a sample .env template is provided), then start it with uv run mcp-teams-server. A pre-built Docker image is also published at ghcr.io/inditextech/mcp-teams-server:latest, pullable directly or buildable from source with docker build . -t inditextech/mcp-teams-server; run it with docker run --env-file .env -it inditextech/mcp-teams-server, adding -p 8000:8000 and --transport streamable-http for HTTP deployments. A dedicated guide documents how to connect an LLM client to the running server. The project is Apache-2.0 licensed, maintained by INDITEX.

Who it's for

Teams and organizations using Microsoft Teams for internal communication who want an AI assistant to keep a specific channel updated, triage incoming messages, or participate in threaded discussions without a human manually relaying every message. The project also publishes SonarCloud quality metrics (bugs, maintainability, reliability) and an OpenSSF Scorecard rating for teams vetting it before deployment.

  • Start thread in channel with title and contents, mentioning users
  • Update existing threads with message replies, mentioning users
  • Read thread replies
  • List channel team members
  • Read channel messages

Prerequisites

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/InditexTech/mcp-teams-server
cd mcp-teams-server
  1. Create a virtual environment and install dependencies:
uv venv
uv sync --frozen --all-extras --dev

Teams configuration

Please read this document to help you to configure Microsoft Teams and required
Azure resources. It is not a step-by-step guide but can help you figure out what you will need.

Usage

Set up the following environment variables in your shell or in an .env file. You can use sample file
as a template:

Key Description
TEAMS_APP_ID UUID for your MS Entra ID application ID
TEAMS_APP_PASSWORD Client secret
TEAMS_APP_TENANT_ID Tenant uuid in case of SingleTenant
TEAM_ID MS Teams Group Id or Team Id
TEAMS_CHANNEL_ID MS Teams Channel ID with url escaped chars

Start the server:

uv run mcp-teams-server

The default MCP transport is stdio. You can also use streamable-http for HTTP deployments:

uv run mcp-teams-server --transport streamable-http

The legacy sse transport is still available for older clients.

Development

Integration tests require the set-up the following environment variables:

Key Description
TEST_THREAD_ID timestamp of the thread id
TEST_MESSAGE_ID timestamp of the message id
TEST_USER_NAME test user name
uv run pytest -m integration

Pre-built docker image

There is a pre-built image hosted in ghcr.io.
You can install this image by running the following command

docker pull ghcr.io/inditextech/mcp-teams-server:latest

Build docker image

A docker image is available to run MCP server. You can build it with the following command:

docker build . -t inditextech/mcp-teams-server

Run docker image

Basic run configuration:

docker run -it inditextech/mcp-teams-server

Run with environment variables from .env file:

docker run --env-file .env -it inditextech/mcp-teams-server

Run with Streamable HTTP transport:

docker run --env-file .env -p 8000:8000 -it inditextech/mcp-teams-server --transport streamable-http
