From code to context: Automating secure DevOps with HashiCorp MCP servers
summary
Terraform MCP server (May release) automates registry-aware Terraform generation, using provider docs, private modules and pinned provider versions to produce files, run terraform init/format/validate and often succeed on plan; demo produces six todos, generates module-backed GCP buckets and attaches Sentinel-like policies. HCP Terraform tooling lets MCP create and update workspaces, variables and tags via authenticated flows. Vault MCP server (DockerHub) reads/writes secrets, issues certs and mounts backends and rewrites app code to fetch secrets. Radar MCP server enumerates ~800 GitHub resources across 10 sources and finds only ~10% monitored.
