An MCP server for interacting with the Open eClass platform, with support for UoA's SSO authentication.

• SSO Authentication: Log in through UoA's CAS SSO system
• Course Retrieval: Get list of enrolled courses
• Session Management: Persistent sessions between tool calls
• Status Checking: Verify authentication status

• Python 3.10+
• uv (recommended) or pip

git clone https://github.com/sdi2200262/eclass-mcp-server.git
cd eclass-mcp-server
uv sync --dev --all-extras

Create a .env file (or copy example.env):

ECLASS_USERNAME=your_username
ECLASS_PASSWORD=your_password

Optional settings:

ECLASS_URL=https://eclass.uoa.gr          # Default
ECLASS_SSO_DOMAIN=sso.uoa.gr              # Default
ECLASS_SSO_PROTOCOL=https                 # Default

# Using the entry point script
python run_server.py

# Or as a module
python -m src.eclass_mcp_server.server

To use this MCP server with Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client, configure your client to run:

python3 /absolute/path/to/eclass-mcp-server/run_server.py

Set the following environment variables in your client's MCP configuration:

{
  "env": {
    "ECLASS_USERNAME": "your_username",
    "ECLASS_PASSWORD": "your_password"
  }
}

Optional environment variables:

• ECLASS_URL - OpenEclass instance URL (default: https://eclass.uoa.gr)
• ECLASS_SSO_DOMAIN - SSO domain (default: sso.uoa.gr)
• ECLASS_SSO_PROTOCOL - SSO protocol (default: https)

Refer to your specific client's documentation for how to add MCP servers to your configuration.

All tools use a dummy random_string parameter (MCP protocol requirement).

For non-MCP usage, a standalone client is included:

python eclass_client.py

This demonstrates the core functionality without MCP integration. See docs/architecture.md for details.
