MCP SERVER & REST API

Programmatic obot, for your agents and pipelines.

obot exposes a Model Context Protocol server and a REST API so AI copilots, scripts and CI systems can submit jobs, watch status and pull results — using the same OAuth identity as everything else in obot.

What is the MCP server?

A standards-based endpoint that presents obot's actions as callable tools. Any MCP-compatible client — Claude, an internal agent, a copilot — can discover and invoke them with no bespoke integration code.

When to use the REST API

For deterministic automation — a CI job that fires simulations on commit, a nightly batch, a dashboard in your own portal. Same OAuth tokens, plain HTTPS + JSON.

Authentication

Create an API client under Admin → API access. obot mints an OAuth client; exchange its credentials for a bearer JWT and send it with every request.

bash
# exchange client credentials for a bearer token
curl -X POST https://api.obot.cloud/oauth/token \
  -d grant_type=client_credentials \
  -d client_id=$OBOT_CLIENT_ID \
  -d client_secret=$OBOT_CLIENT_SECRET
# → { "access_token": "eyJ…", "token_type": "Bearer" }

MCP tools

obot.submit_jobQueue a case for dispatch by project, case and priority.
obot.get_jobFetch status, duration and the machine a job ran on.
obot.list_jobsFilter and page through jobs by project, user or time window.
obot.cancel_jobCancel a queued or running job.
obot.list_machinesSee connected agents, their capabilities and availability.
obot.get_resultsRetrieve output artifacts and the run summary for a completed job.

Example: submit & poll a job

REST · HTTP
POST /v1/jobs
Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN
{
  "project": "LLOG_Taggart",
  "case":    "gas-lift-optimizer",
  "priority":"normal"
}
→ 201 { "id": 32741, "status": "queued" }
GET /v1/jobs/32741
→ 200 { "status": "completed", "duration": "15:30", "machine": "hou-sim09" }
