SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires job_templates_list, inventories_list, notification_templates_list, credentials_list, instance_groups_list, users_list, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill checks the accessibility of the necessary AAP MCP (Agile Access Proxy) servers before any skill requiring their access is executed. This helps ensure that the automation process will proceed smoothly without server connection issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Server Connectivity Check: Before executing skills that require AAP MCP access, this Skill validates that the specified servers are available and reachable.
  • Server Specific Validation: Different servers are validated depending on the skill requirements. Common use cases include job management, inventory, configuration, security, system monitoring, and user management.
  • Automated Verification: As the first step in governed workflows, the Skill verifies all required servers before proceeding.

Quick Start

Run the skill with the servers parameter set to check access for a governance assessment: aap-mcp-validator servers=governance_assessment.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate AAP MCP server connectivity before running automation skills?

To validate AAP MCP server connectivity, you run a specific check to verify that required Agile Access Proxy Control Plane servers are available and reachable before executing automated skills. This prevents server connection issues during your automation workflows.

Why does automated skill execution fail due to server connection issues?

Automated skill execution fails because required AAP MCP servers may be inaccessible or offline. Running a server connectivity check beforehand validates that specified servers are reachable, ensuring automation processes proceed smoothly without unexpected connection drops.

How do I check access for a governance assessment using AAP MCP servers?

To check access for a governance assessment, execute the server validation skill with the servers parameter set to governance_assessment. This verifies all required AAP MCP servers are accessible before proceeding with governed workflow execution.

Can I validate specific servers for different automation tasks like job management and inventory handling?

Yes, you can validate specific servers depending on your skill requirements. The validation process checks accessibility for different servers needed across various use cases including job management, inventory handling, configuration management, security, system monitoring, and user management.

When do I need to run server validation checks in my automation workflow?

Server validation checks are needed as the first step in governed workflows before executing any skills that require AAP MCP access. Running this automated verification step ensures all necessary servers are available before proceeding with automation tasks.

Does AAP MCP server validation work with job templates, inventories, and notification templates?

Yes, AAP MCP server validation supports connectivity checks across workflows involving job templates, inventories, notification templates, credentials, instance groups, and users. This ensures all required dependent components are accessible before automation execution begins.
