Addozhang Nexus MCP server — FAQ

Common questions about connecting and running Addozhang Nexus.

  • What artifact types does this MCP server support?

    It supports Maven, Python, and Docker artifacts stored in Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager (both OSS and Pro editions). You query them via the MCP protocol using your Nexus instance URL and credentials.

  • How do I authenticate with my Nexus instance?

    Set NEXUS_BASE_URL (required), NEXUS_USERNAME, and NEXUS_PASSWORD environment variables before running the server. The server uses these credentials to authenticate requests to your Nexus Repository Manager.

  • Do I need Nexus Pro or does OSS work?

    Both Sonatype Nexus Repository OSS and Pro editions are supported. The server connects to any Nexus instance via its base URL.

  • Can I use this with a self-hosted or cloud-hosted Nexus?

    Yes. Set NEXUS_BASE_URL to your instance's URL (e.g., https://nexus.example.com or your cloud provider's endpoint) and provide valid credentials.

  • What happens if my Nexus credentials are wrong or expired?

    Authentication will fail and the server will return an error. Verify NEXUS_USERNAME and NEXUS_PASSWORD are correct and that your user has permission to query the repositories you're accessing.
