SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill transforms a standard Databricks APX application into a managed MCP server, enabling seamless integration with Databricks AI Playground and Supervisor Agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MCP Server Creation: Exposes your APX app's functionality as tools accessible via JSON-RPC 2.0.
  • AI Playground Integration: Allows AI agents to discover and utilize your app's capabilities.
  • Supervisor Agent Enablement: Facilitates interaction with Databricks Supervisor Agents for automated workflows.
  • Unity Catalog Governance: Registers the MCP connection within Unity Catalog for centralized management.
  • Use Case: You have a custom Databricks APX app that manages inventory. By using this Skill, you can expose functions like "list_items" or "get_item_details" to an AI agent, allowing it to query and interact with your inventory system through natural language.

Quick Start

Deploy your APX app with the MCP router and create a Unity Catalog HTTP connection for it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I expose a Databricks APX application as an MCP server?

To expose a Databricks APX application as an MCP server, you deploy the MCP router to your existing APX app. This implements a JSON-RPC 2.0 endpoint, allowing AI agents to discover and invoke your app's functionalities as tools.

What is needed to integrate an APX app with Databricks AI Playground?

Integrating an APX app with Databricks AI Playground requires an existing APX app deployment, Unity Catalog, and service principal information. You must create a Unity Catalog HTTP connection to register the MCP server for centralized governance.

Can I use Unity Catalog to govern MCP server connections for Supervisor Agents?

Yes, you can use Unity Catalog to govern MCP server connections for Supervisor Agents. The integration registers the MCP connection within Unity Catalog, providing centralized management and enabling automated workflows.

How do AI agents discover and invoke tools from a custom Databricks APX app?

AI agents discover and invoke tools from a custom Databricks APX app through the JSON-RPC 2.0 endpoint. This MCP server implementation exposes your app's functions, like list_items, as callable tools for natural language interaction.

Do I need an existing APX app deployment before creating an MCP server?

Yes, an existing APX app deployment is required before creating an MCP server. This Skill transforms your currently deployed application by adding the MCP router, rather than creating a new application from scratch.
