Maven Dependencies MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides tools for checking Maven dependency versions. This server enables LLMs to verify Maven dependencies and retrieve their latest versions from Maven Central Repository.

maven-mcp-server MCP server

Features

  • Query the latest version of any Maven dependency
  • Verify if a Maven dependency exists
  • Check if a specific version of a dependency exists
  • Real-time access to Maven Central Repository data

Installation

  1. Clone or download this repository
  2. Install dependencies:
npm install
  1. Build the server:
npm run build

Configuration

Add the server to your MCP settings configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "maven-deps-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/maven-deps-server/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

get_maven_latest_version

Retrieves the latest version of a Maven dependency.

Input Schema:

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "dependency": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Maven dependency in format \"groupId:artifactId\" (e.g. \"org.springframework:spring-core\")"
    }
  },
  "required": ["dependency"]
}

Example Usage:

const result = await mcpClient.callTool("maven-deps-server", "get_maven_latest_version", {
  dependency: "org.springframework:spring-core"
});
// Returns: "6.2.1"

check_maven_version_exists

Checks if a specific version of a Maven dependency exists.

Input Schema:

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "dependency": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Maven dependency in format \"groupId:artifactId\" (e.g. \"org.springframework:spring-core\")"
    },
    "version": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Version to check (e.g. \"5.3.20\")"
    }
  },
  "required": ["dependency", "version"]
}

Example Usage:

const result = await mcpClient.callTool("maven-deps-server", "check_maven_version_exists", {
  dependency: "org.springframework:spring-core",
  version: "5.3.20"
});
// Returns: "true" or "false"

Example Responses

Latest Version Check

// Input: org.springframework:spring-core
"6.2.1"

// Input: org.apache.kafka:kafka-clients
"3.7.2"

// Input: nonexistent.group:fake-artifact
"No Maven dependency found for nonexistent.group:fake-artifact"

Version Existence Check

// Input: { dependency: "org.springframework:spring-core", version: "5.3.20" }
"true"

// Input: { dependency: "org.springframework:spring-core", version: "0.0.1" }
"false"

Implementation Details

  • Uses Maven Central's REST API to fetch dependency information
  • Sorts results by timestamp to ensure the latest version is returned
  • Includes error handling for invalid dependencies and API issues
  • Returns clean, parseable version strings for valid dependencies
  • Provides boolean responses for version existence checks

Error Handling

The server handles various error cases:

  • Invalid dependency format
  • Invalid version format
  • Non-existent dependencies
  • API connection issues
  • Malformed responses

Development

To modify or extend the server:

  1. Make changes to src/index.ts
  2. Rebuild using npm run build
  3. Restart the MCP server to apply changes
