Articles & Videos
Here you can find getting articles on how to use and integrate the SAS MCP Server in different tools and what to build with it:
Getting Started
Prerequisites
Installation
- Clone the repository:
git clone <repository-url>
cd sas-mcp-server
- Install dependencies
uv sync
NOTE: This will by default create a virtual environment called .venv in the project's root directory.
If for some reason the virtual environment is not created, please run uv venv and then re-run uv sync.
Run uv sync again after each git pull, with every MCP client that uses this checkout closed. The stdio client configurations below start the server with uv run --no-sync, so they never sync .venv themselves: on Windows, a sync while another copy of the server is running fails on its locked .exe and the server does not start (see TROUBLESHOOTING.md).
Usage
- Configure environment variables:
cp .env.sample .env
Edit .env and set
VIYA_ENDPOINT=https://your-viya-server.com
- Start the MCP server (see Choosing a deployment mode below):
Option A: HTTP mode (pre-run the server, connect from MCP client)
uv run app
The server will be available at http://localhost:8134/mcp by default. Authentication is handled via OAuth2 PKCE flow in the browser.
Option B: Stdio mode (MCP client starts the server on demand)
Authenticate once. Two equivalent options:
# Option B1 — if you have the SAS Viya CLI installed:
sas-viya auth loginCode
# Option B2 — built-in helper, no external CLI needed (Viya 2022.11+):
uv run sas-mcp-login
Both flows write an access token to a local cache (~/.sas/credentials.json and ~/.sas-mcp-server/credentials.json respectively); the stdio server reads whichever it finds. When the token expires, re-run the same command.
Then configure your MCP client to launch the server directly (see below).
Option C: Docker / Podman (containerized deployment)
Pull the pre-built image from GitHub Container Registry:
docker pull ghcr.io/sassoftware/sas-mcp-server:latest
docker run -e VIYA_ENDPOINT=https://your-viya-server.com -p 8134:8134 ghcr.io/sassoftware/sas-mcp-server:latest
Or build locally from source:
docker build -t sas-mcp-server .
docker run -e VIYA_ENDPOINT=https://your-viya-server.com -p 8134:8134 sas-mcp-server
Available image tags:
latest — most recent tagged release<major>.<minor>.<patch> (e.g. 1.0.0) — specific release<major>.<minor> (e.g. 1.0) — latest patch of a minor releaseedge — tip of main (unreleased, for testing)sha-<short> — pinned to a specific commit
Programmatic clients with a pre-existing Viya token
If your caller already holds a Viya access token (e.g. an automation script that obtained one via the SAS Viya CLI), start the HTTP-mode server with ALLOW_RAW_BEARER=true and pass the token directly:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $VIYA_TOKEN" http://localhost:8134/mcp ...
The server validates the token against Viya's JWKS and uses it upstream as-is, bypassing the MCP JWT swap. The default OAuth2 PKCE flow keeps working alongside — both client types share the same /mcp endpoint.
If your Viya APIs are intentionally exposed without auth (for example, a local/dev Compute API endpoint), set VIYA_AUTH=false to bypass all SASLogon/OAuth flows in both HTTP and stdio modes. In this mode the server sends upstream requests without an Authorization header.
If your compute deployment does not expose /compute/contexts and only supports a fixed session, set COMPUTE_SESSION_ID=<session_id>. The compute tools will use that session directly instead of creating context-backed sessions.
Choosing a deployment mode
| HTTP | Stdio | Docker | Kubernetes |
|---|
| How it runs | Long-running server you start separately | MCP client spawns it on demand | Containerized HTTP server | Containerized, behind an ingress |
| Authentication | OAuth2 PKCE flow (browser popup) | Cached token via sas-viya CLI or sas-mcp-login | OAuth2 PKCE flow (browser popup) | PKCE and/or raw Viya bearer token |
| Best for | Multi-user or shared setups; production-like environments | Single-user local development; quick experimentation | Team deployments; CI/CD; environments without Python installed | Shared/organisational deployments alongside Viya |
| Requires | Python + uv | Python + uv (+ optional sas-viya CLI) | Docker or Podman only | A cluster, an ingress controller, a TLS secret |
| Credentials stored? | No — user authenticates interactively | No — only an access token (not a password) is cached | No — user authenticates interactively | No — a signing key in a Secret; users authenticate themselves |
| MCP client config | Point client to http://localhost:8134/mcp | Client runs uv run app-stdio | Point client to http://host:8134/mcp | Point client to https://<viya-host>/mcp |
Quick guidance:
- Starting out or exploring? Use stdio — one
sas-viya auth loginCode or uv run sas-mcp-login, then your MCP client manages the server lifecycle.
- Need secure, interactive auth? Use HTTP — no stored passwords, each user authenticates via browser.
- Deploying for a team or on a server? Use Docker — portable, no Python dependency on the host, easy to integrate with orchestrators.
- Running it for a whole organisation? Use Kubernetes — sample manifests and a Helm chart are in deploy/, including the routing the OAuth flow needs for either Contour (the chart's default, and the only one that can mount the server under a path prefix on an existing hostname) or ingress-nginx.
- Using Gemini CLI? Use stdio — Gemini CLI does not support HTTP mode or browser-based OAuth. See Gemini CLI configuration.
- Integrating with Microsoft 365 Copilot? Use Kubernetes (or any remote HTTPS deployment) — Copilot declarative agents only reach remotely hosted MCP servers. A ready-to-sideload agent package and walkthrough are in examples/m365-copilot/.
- Adding it to a Microsoft Copilot Studio agent? Same remote HTTPS deployment, plus
MCP_TOOL_RENAME=catalog_=infocat_ — Copilot Studio's agent runtime fails on tool names that start with catalog_. The steps are in examples/copilot-studio/.
- Not sure which Microsoft route fits? examples/microsoft-copilot.md compares the declarative agent and the Copilot Studio agent, and shows the settings for one deployment that serves both.
- Installing from a client's server catalogue? That path runs the published container in mode (), not as an HTTP server, so it authenticates from your token cache — which has to be mounted into the container at .
Limiting exposed tools (tiers)
Tools are grouped into numbered tiers. By default the server exposes all of them; set MCP_TIERS to expose only a subset — handy for keeping a client's tool list small and focused, or hiding capabilities a deployment shouldn't offer. Accepts ranges and comma lists (e.g. MCP_TIERS=0-4 or MCP_TIERS=0,1,6,7); unset means all tiers.
| Tier | Group |
|---|
| 0 | Compute Contexts & Code Execution |
| 1 | Data Discovery |
| 2 | Data Operations & Files |
| 3 | Reports & Visualization |
| 4 | Batch Jobs & Async Execution |
| 5 | Automated Machine Learning |
| 6 | Model Management & Scoring |
| 7 | Decisioning Foundation (SAS Intelligent Decisioning) |
| 8 | Workbench (Execute Code Only) |
| 9 | Business Glossary (SAS Data Governance) |
| 10 | Decisioning Advanced (SAS Intelligent Decisioning) — needs Tier 7 |
# Example: expose only compute/discovery/data-ops and reporting
MCP_TIERS=0-3 uv run app
Read-only mode
Set MCP_READ_ONLY=true to expose only tools that neither change server-side state nor cause server-side work — 57 of the 115 tools. Withheld tools are never registered, so they are absent from the client's tool list entirely: the model cannot see them, so it cannot attempt them.
This is a filter over the tiers, not a tier of its own — the read/write split cuts across every tier (Tier 3 has both get_report and delete_report). The two settings compose:
# Every read tool, all tiers
MCP_READ_ONLY=true uv run app
# Read tools of the reporting and decisioning tiers only
MCP_TIERS=3,7 MCP_READ_ONLY=true uv run app
The definition is strict: a tool qualifies only if it can neither write nor start work. Beyond the obvious create/update/delete tools, that withholds:
| Withheld | Why |
|---|
execute_sas_code, submit_batch_job | Run arbitrary code — can perform any operation, including deletes |
score_data, catalog_run_agent, catalog_run_adhoc_analysis | Start server-side jobs and leave run records, though they return data |
promote_table_to_memory | Mutates CAS in-memory state |
cancel_job, reset_compute_session | Destroy something the caller owns |
Classification is fail-closed: a tool that is not explicitly classified as read-only is withheld. The list lives in src/sas_mcp_server/tools/_access.py, and a test asserts it covers every registered tool, so a newly added tool cannot silently land in read-only mode.
Tool annotations (what clients are told)
The same classification is advertised to every client as MCP tool annotations on each tools/list entry — whether or not read-only mode is on:
| Hint | Derived from |
|---|
readOnlyHint | exactly the read-only set above — one table, so what a client is told and what MCP_READ_ONLY enforces cannot drift |
destructiveHint | tools that can remove or overwrite existing state: arbitrary code (execute_sas_code, submit_batch_job), delete_*, cancel_job, reset_compute_session, the update_* PUTs, apply_report_operations, create_report/copy_report (their replace conflict policy), publish_ml_champion_model |
idempotentHint | reads, the update_* PUTs, deletes, cancel_job, reset_compute_session, promote_table_to_memory |
openWorldHint | only tools that can reach beyond Viya: arbitrary code and the upload tools' url source |
Clients use these to shape their approval UX — e.g. Claude groups read-only tools for one-click approval and warns before destructive ones — and to decide when to interrupt the user. They are hints, not enforcement: the spec tells clients to treat them as untrusted unless the server is trusted, and MCP_READ_ONLY remains the server-side control. Without annotations a client must assume the spec's pessimistic defaults (writable, destructive, open-world) for every tool, so this only ever reduces friction. The browser landing page marks each tool read-only / write / destructive from the same hints.
Interactive views (MCP Apps)
Some results read badly as text however well the tool shapes them: a hundred rows of a table, a SAS log, a form's worth of typed attributes. Ten tools therefore also carry a small HTML view, using the MCP Apps extension, that a supporting client renders in a sandboxed frame beside the result:
| View | Tools | What it does |
|---|
| Data grid | query_data, get_castable_data, get_compute_table_data | Sort, filter and page through rows. Paging calls the same tool again from the view, so the person can walk a large table while the model holds only the first page. |
| SAS log | execute_sas_code, get_job_log, submit_batch_job | Colour-coded ERROR / WARNING / NOTE lines, jump to the next problem, problems-only and hide-notes filters, the listing on its own tab, and SAS's own HTML output on a Results tab (see HTML results). A submitted batch job is polled from the view until it ends, then its log is fetched. |
| Glossary term editor | get_glossary_term_type, get_glossary_term | A form generated from the term type — a real checkbox for a boolean, a date picker, a multi-select — so attribute values cannot be mistyped. Creates or updates the term and tells the assistant what was saved. A term that is still a draft can be published from here, which is the only way the API allows it. |
| Glossary browser | list_glossary_terms | The whole glossary as a navigable tree beside a detail pane: search across names, definitions, descriptions and attribute values; filter by term type or "has assets"; breadcrumbs, children cards, attributes, assigned assets, and a sunburst of the hierarchy. The tree pane can be resized by dragging the divider or hidden altogether. The listing's own filters become the starting filters; the rest of the glossary is loaded by the view in pages, so the model still holds only the first page. A draft — invisible to everyone but its author, which is why the tree is where you notice one — can be published from its detail pane. |
| Glossary import | import_glossary_terms | With dry_run=true, the rows in the order they would be sent, with resolved parent paths and the CSV's own Definition and Description columns kept apart, and an Import button. After a real import, each row's outcome and the id of the term it became — including whether the term was new or already there, which the import job itself counts as successful either way. |
Every view has a ⤢ button that opens it fullscreen where the host offers that (Claude does), which is where a wide table or a long log is meant to be read; the button does not appear on a host without it.
Everything about this is additive. The tool's return value is unchanged, so a client without the extension — Claude Code, a script, an older client — sees exactly what it saw before. Every request a view makes travels through the host to this server as an ordinary tool call with the session's token; the browser never talks to Viya, and a tool a deployment withholds through MCP_TIERS or MCP_READ_ONLY has no view either — nor does any control inside a view that would have called it, so a read-only deployment shows the glossary browser without its Publish button rather than with one that can only fail. The pages are fully inlined — the vendored @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps bridge included — so they render on hosts that ignore CSP declarations and on an air-gapped Viya. MCP_APPS=false registers no views.
Whether a view is rendered depends on the client and on how it is connected:
| Client | Views |
|---|
| ChatGPT, Microsoft 365 Copilot, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Goose | Rendered — these clients implement the extension. |
| Claude (web, Desktop, Cowork) connected to the HTTP server as a custom connector | Rendered, including the SAS log view's Results tab. The connector speaks the 2026 protocol revision, whose handshake has no session, so the server needs MCP_STATELESS_HTTP=true and a URL that Anthropic's servers can reach. |
Claude Desktop with the server in claude_desktop_config.json (which accepts stdio servers only) | Not rendered since Claude Desktop 2.2553 (22 September 2026). Desktop passes a local server's tools to the chat through a bridge that rebuilds each tool's metadata and drops the view binding, so the chat never asks for the page. The tools work as before; results are text, and execute_sas_code still returns its HTML results link. Reported as anthropics/claude-ai-mcp#1069. |
| Microsoft Copilot Studio agents | Not rendered — the agent runtime does not implement the extension (it announces no UI capability and never reads the view). execute_sas_code still returns its link to the HTML results. |
| Claude Code | Not rendered — text only, by design. |
A view's own controls call other tools (the Results tab reads the page through download_file, Tier 2), so a deployment that withholds those tiers gets the view without that control. View URIs carry a fingerprint of the page (ui://sas-viya/sas-log/execute_sas_code.<hash>.html) that changes with the server version, the page files and the tier selection, because hosts cache a page by its URI — claude.ai even across a connector being removed and added again; the plain URI is served too, for hosts holding an older tool listing.
HTML results
execute_sas_code returns the SAS log and listing as text, which is what the model reads. By default it also produces the page SAS Data and AI Studio would show, with tables styled by ODS and graphs drawn, and returns a link to it:
- How. The compute context opens no HTML destination of its own, so the server runs the code between an
ods html5 statement and its close. Before the close comes ;*';*";*/;run;quit;, which ends whatever the code left open (an unterminated statement, quote or comment, or a step without run;) so that the close still runs. None of this appears in the log the model reads. html_results=false submits the code exactly as given.
- The link. When the code printed something, the page is saved to the Viya Files service and the result gains
html_results_url. Opening it in a browser asks you to sign in to SAS Viya; the file sits in no folder, so Viya's default rules let only the person who ran the code (and administrators) open it. Pages are saved without an expiration, the Files service's default, so they stay until someone deletes them.
- In the SAS log view, the page is the Results tab, shown first when the code ran cleanly. The view fetches it through
download_file, so a deployment without Tier 2 gets the link but not the tab.
- Cost. Opening and closing the destination adds about a tenth of a second to a job, and saving the page is one more request. The page itself, 40–70 KB and mostly ODS's stylesheet, never enters the model's context; only the link does.
Available Tools
The headings below match the numbered tiers above, so MCP_TIERS maps directly to the tools you expose (e.g. MCP_TIERS=0-3 gives Tiers 0–3).
Tier 0 — Compute Contexts & Code Execution
- execute_sas_code: Execute SAS code snippets and retrieve execution results (log and listing output), plus a link to the HTML results unless
html_results=false. Runs in a reusable, per-user compute session that is kept warm across calls, so SAS state (WORK tables, macro variables, assigned librefs) persists between successive calls — use reset_compute_session to start fresh.
- list_compute_contexts: List available compute contexts
- reset_compute_session: Delete the cached compute session for a context, discarding its SAS state and forcing a fresh session on the next call
Tier 1 — Data Discovery
SAS Data Governance (metadata discovery & profiling):
- catalog_search: Search the catalog for assets (tables, columns, reports, …) using the SAS catalog search grammar (free text, facets like
AssetType:Report, ranges). Each hit carries a resource_uri you can hand to the matching tool (e.g. get_report, get_castable_data).
- catalog_search_helper: Discover how to query the catalog — list the available facets, or the valid values for one facet — so you can build precise
catalog_search queries.
- catalog_find_instance: Resolve the catalog instance for a source-asset
resource_uri, bridging a search hit to the profiling and download tools without handling an instance id by hand.
- catalog_run_adhoc_analysis: Submit an ad-hoc profiling job for a table. NLP enrichment (language, sentiment, semantic IDs) is on by default, populating
informationPrivacy, nlpTerms, nlpTags, and mostImportantFields.
- catalog_get_adhoc_analysis: Poll a profiling job and cross-check the target instance, reporting
profile_ready once results have landed on the asset — so a download isn't fired too early.
- catalog_download_table_profile: Download a table's data dictionary and column profile as CSV, identified by either
instance_id or resource_uri.
- catalog_list_agents: List the catalog's discovery agents (the crawlers that populate metadata).
- catalog_run_agent: Start a discovery agent run (asynchronous) to crawl its data source and refresh catalog metadata.
- catalog_get_agent_history: Inspect an agent's run history — status and how much metadata each run enumerated/added/updated/removed.
CAS data (in-memory):
- list_cas_servers: List available CAS servers
- list_caslibs: List CAS libraries on a server
- list_castables: List tables in a CAS library
- list_source_tables: List source tables not yet loaded into memory (candidates for promotion)
- get_castable_info: Get table metadata (row count, columns, size)
- get_castable_columns: Get column names, types, labels, formats
- get_castable_data: Fetch sample rows from a CAS table
- query_data: Run a FedSQL
SELECT against CAS or compute data and get the rows back — one SQL surface over both storage tiers. Pick the tier with target (cas for caslib.table, compute for libref.table); joins, subqueries, aggregation, and UNION all work, and the row cap is applied server-side by the tool (a LIMIT you write is ignored, since a malformed one is silently discarded by CAS). Optionally returns the query as CREATE VIEW text for you to run yourself. Reads only: writes are refused pre-flight, and SAS macro triggers (%/&) are rejected because the macro processor would expand them outside SQL. Note the two tiers cannot be joined in one statement.
Compute libraries (SAS/Compute, within a compute context):
- list_compute_libraries: List the SAS libraries (librefs) assigned in a compute context
- list_compute_tables: List the tables in a SAS library within a compute context
- list_compute_columns: List the columns of a table in a SAS library
- get_compute_table_data: Fetch a page of rows from a table in a SAS library, values formatted as SAS displays them — the compute-tier counterpart of
get_castable_data
Tier 2 — Data Operations & Files
- upload_data: Upload a data file into a CAS table — read server-side so the data never passes through the model's context — from
file_path (the server reads it off disk) or url (the server fetches it and converts it to the multipart upload the endpoint requires). Ingests the formats the casManagement uploadTable API accepts — csv, tsv (csv + tab delimiter), xls, xlsx (single sheet), sas7bdat, sashdat — auto-detected from the extension or set with data_format. parquet is not accepted by that endpoint and is rejected up front with guidance (load via a path-based caslib + promote_table_to_memory, or convert to csv/sas7bdat).
- upload_inline_data: Create a small CAS table from inline csv/tsv text passed as a string (a lookup/mapping table the model builds on the fly, or a quick test table). The payload travels through the model's context, so it's for tiny tables only — use upload_data for files or anything larger.
- promote_table_to_memory: Load a source table into memory at global scope (idempotent)
- list_files: List files in the Viya Files Service
- upload_file: Upload a file to the Viya Files Service, optionally into a Content folder (
parent_folder_uri). Content comes from exactly one of content (inline text), file_path (read server-side, binary-safe — xlsx, zip, images — gated by ALLOW_LOCAL_FILE_UPLOAD), or url (server-side fetch)
- download_file: Download file content
- find_folder: Look up a SAS Content folder by path (
/Public/Content/Decisions, My Folder, My Folder/Risk), ID or URI, and return its ID, URI, name and full path — for confirming a folder the user named, or getting the URI that upload_file and MCP_DEFAULT_FOLDER take
Tier 3 — Reports & Visualization
- list_reports: List Visual Analytics reports
- get_report: Get report metadata and definition
- export_report: export a report (or specific report objects) in any format the VA service supports —
package (zip), pdf, png, svg, csv, tsv, xlsx, or summary. Text formats come back inline, png as image content, and binary formats (package/pdf/xlsx) as an embedded file with the right MIME type.
- describe_report_objects: Discover what a report can contain — the eight report operations and every addable object (bar chart, list table, geo map, key value, …) with a one-line purpose, its data roles, common options, and an example payload. Call with no arguments for the catalog (including an intent→object map, placement guide, layout recipes, and the API's hard limits),
object_type= for one object's contract (colloquial aliases like kpi resolve), category= to filter, or operation= for one operation's full shape — operation="addData" documents dataItems (column renames, SAS formats, aggregations, geography classification). Backs the apply_report_operations loop.
- create_report: Create a Visual Analytics report and return its id. Optionally pass an
operations array to build the whole report in one atomic call; the result carries the created page/object names+labels and a verify hint.
- apply_report_operations: The authoring workhorse — apply an ordered batch of native VA operations (
addData, addPage, addObject, updateObject, setParameterValue, updateData, changeData, applyDataView) to a report. Give a page a title with addPage's title field (a text band at the top of the page body — VA headers are controls-only); title every chart at add time via options.object.title; arrange objects with placement — page, relativeToObject (left/right/top/bottom for columns, rows, and grids), container (group into a standardContainer), or report (new_page creates-and-names a page inline for one-batch multi-page reports). The batch is atomic. Validates every operation, object key, and placement against the catalog first (reporting all errors at once), supports , handles the ETag concurrency handshake, and — with plus / — applies the batch to a new report, leaving the source untouched. The flag alone decides the mode: without it the report is edited in place, and a name or folder given without it is refused rather than acted on. Typical loop: → → → / (png, page-by-page) to verify.
Tier 4 — Batch Jobs & Async Execution
- submit_batch_job: Submit a SAS job for async execution
- get_job_status: Check job state
- list_jobs: List recent/running jobs
- cancel_job: Cancel a running job
- get_job_log: Retrieve job log
Tier 5 — Automated Machine Learning
- list_ml_projects: List AutoML projects
- create_ml_project: Create a new AutoML project from a loaded, global-scope CAS table (caslib + table + optional CAS server)
- run_ml_project: Run pipeline automation
- register_ml_champion_model: Register an AutoML project's champion model to the Model Repository
- publish_ml_champion_model: Publish an AutoML project's champion model to a scoring destination
Tier 6 — Model Management & Scoring
- list_registered_models: List models in repository
- list_publishing_destinations: List available scoring/publishing destinations, for use with publish_ml_champion_model
- list_mas_modules: List published MAS modules
- get_mas_module_step_signature: Inspect a published MAS module step's input/output variable signature before scoring
- score_data: Score data against a published model or decision; for a decision published from the Intelligent Decisioning UI, whose inputs carry a trailing underscore, the plain names are accepted and mapped (
inputs_renamed)
Tier 7 — Decisioning Foundation (SAS Intelligent Decisioning)
Build and run SAS Intelligent Decisioning decisions — rule sets that consult lookup tables, and decision flows that combine them with models, branches, conditions, assignments and sub-decisions — then publish a flow to Micro Analytic Score (MAS) so score_data can execute it. The life-cycle tools read, lock, copy and delete every kind of decisioning content. Segmentation trees, code files, value lists and custom functions are written with Tier 10; enable both (MCP_TIERS=...,7,10) for everything — the server logs a warning when Tier 10 is on without Tier 7.
Rule sets and decision flows are always stored in a SAS Content folder. The create tools take a folder — a path such as /Public/Content/Decisions, My Folder or My Folder/Risk, a folder ID, or a folder URI — and fall back to the deployment's MCP_DEFAULT_FOLDER. With neither, they refuse and the model asks the user where to store the asset. An update leaves an asset in its folder; one created before folders were required is filed by its next update, into the folder given or the default. Every create and update result carries folder, with the path the asset is in.
Business rules — rule sets:
- create_business_ruleset / update_business_ruleset / get_business_ruleset / list_business_rulesets / delete_business_ruleset: Manage rule sets (the input/output signature the rules operate on)
- lock_business_ruleset_revision: Lock the current rule set state as an immutable revision (what a decision step references)
- list_business_ruleset_revisions: List a rule set's locked revisions
Business rules — rules:
- create_business_rule / update_business_rule / get_business_rule / list_business_rules / delete_business_rule: Manage the conditional rules inside a rule set
Decision flows:
- create_decision_flow / update_decision_flow / get_decision_flow / list_decision_flows / delete_decision_flow: Manage decision flows that chain rule set steps
- get_decision_flow_code: Retrieve the generated DS2 execution code for a flow
- lock_decision_flow_revision / list_decision_flow_revisions / get_decision_flow_revision: Lock, list, and fetch immutable decision revisions
- publish_decision_flow: Publish a locked decision revision to a MAS destination, polling to completion and returning the server-generated MAS
moduleId (directly usable with get_mas_module_step_signature / score_data). The code is generated for MAS, as SAS Intelligent Decisioning publishes it, so lookup tables work; the module's inputs keep the decision's variable names (the UI would add a trailing underscore, credit_score_)
create_decision_flow and update_decision_flow take steps, in which each step names what it is and the server wires it: {"type": "rule_set" | "segmentation_tree" | "code_file" | "decision", "id": ...} (a sub-decision is a decision), {"type": "model", "id": <model repository id>}, {"type": "assignment", "assignments": {"band": "GOLD"}}, {"type": "condition", "expression": "score >= 630", "on_true": [...], "on_false": [...]} and {"type": "branch", "branch_type": "range" | "equals" | "like", ...}. A referenced object's newest locked revision is used (one is locked if there is none); step terms map to same-named decision variables, and a term the decision has none for is added as a variable of its type and direction, because Intelligent Decisioning validates and publishes a step only when every term is mapped. Mappings never cross type families. Assignments set constants (compute in a rule set or code file); a model is referenced by its model repository ID and its outputs become decision variables; range branches compare inclusively (>= min, <= max) and their cases must not share a value; steps nest inside branch cases and conditions. The tool's description carries a worked example of each. rule_set_steps still works for rule-set-only flows. The result's steps_report lists the revisions used, the variables added and anything to check.
Content — one life cycle for every kind: asset_type is rule_set, decision, segmentation_tree, code_file, value_list, lookup_table, custom_function or function_category.
- list_decisioning_assets / get_decisioning_asset / delete_decisioning_asset: List, read (with the folder it is in; a rule set with its rules, a code file with its code, a value list with its entries, a lookup table with its versions and active entries; content over 150,000 characters is summarised) and delete any of them — a lookup table that rule sets use is refused, naming them, because Viya would delete it and leave those rules invalid
- get_decisioning_asset_code: The DS2 Viya generates for a rule set, decision or segmentation tree, or a code file's source
- list_decisioning_asset_revisions / lock_decisioning_asset_revision: Revisions of rule sets, decisions, segmentation trees and code files. Locking freezes the current state and opens the next revision; the result says which revision was locked
- copy_decisioning_asset: Copy a rule set (with its rules), decision, segmentation tree, code file, value list or lookup table into a folder
- validate_decision_expression: Compile a DS2 expression — a rule condition or action, a branch, a condition step — against a signature and return the compiler's error lines, before it goes into a rule set or decision
Lookup tables — keys and the value stored for each, which rules consult: a lookup condition tests whether a variable's value is a key, a lookupValue action assigns the value for a key. create_business_rule / update_business_rule take the lookup table by name and resolve its ID (a reference without one is stored as invalid), and report any condition or action Viya stored as invalid in problems. Rules read a lookup table's active version, which activation publishes to MAS and CAS; a decision already published uses newly activated entries on its next call, without being published again.
- get_lookup_table: Versions (which one is active, which failed to activate and why), one version's entries — paged, filtered by key — and the rule sets that use the table
- create_lookup_table: Create one from
{"key": "value"} or a list of entries, with optional column labels, in a folder; activate publishes it right away
- update_lookup_table: Add or overwrite entries, remove keys, or replace them all; rename; relabel. An active version is never changed — a new version is started from it — and rules keep the active one until the new one is activated (
activate does that in the same call)
- activate_lookup_table: Make a version the active one and wait for the publish to settle (
active, running or failed with the reason); an earlier version (a rollback) or one whose activation failed is activated as a new version with its entries; republish copies the active version to MAS and CAS again
Tier 8 — Workbench (Execute Code Only)
- execute_sas_code: Execute SAS code snippets and retrieve execution results (log and listing output), plus a link to the HTML results unless
html_results=false. Runs in a reusable compute session that is kept warm across calls, so SAS state (WORK tables, macro variables, assigned librefs) persists between successive calls
Tier 9 — Business Glossary (SAS Data Governance)
Read and author the SAS Business Glossary, and link its terms to the columns they describe. Tier 1 tells you a column is called CD_NAC_RSK; this tier tells you what that means and who says so.
Two things about the glossary are worth knowing before you start, because both are invisible in the raw API and both are handled for you here:
- A term has two ids. It exists as a Glossary object and as a Catalog entity, with different identifiers. Every tool returns both —
term_id (glossary) and catalog_entity_id (catalog) — so you never have to work out which one you are holding.
- Custom attributes are stored under UUID keys. These tools read and write them by the label the glossary UI shows (
{"Scope": "Group"}), validating required attributes and single-select values before the call is made.
Dictionary:
- search_glossary_terms: Free-text, ranked search over term names and definitions — the way in when you know a word rather than an id. Reports
assigned_asset_count, so you can see whether a term is actually in use
- list_glossary_terms: Exact structural listing — by term type, by parent (the authoritative hierarchy), or by name fragment.
include_attributes returns each term's attribute values (free — the listing already carries them), and attribute_filter keeps only the terms matching, e.g. {"Used in Risk": true}. The glossary cannot filter on attributes server-side, so that filter is applied here and the result reports how much of the dictionary it scanned
- get_glossary_term: One term in full, with its custom attributes named rather than hashed
- list_glossary_term_types / get_glossary_term_type: The term types available, and the attribute contract a term of that type must satisfy — call the latter before authoring. Each attribute reports the one value format Viya accepts for it, which the API itself documents nowhere
Where terms meet data:
- list_term_assets: The columns a term is attached to, with their tables. The authoritative answer to "where is this term used?"
- list_table_terms: The reverse — every column of a table and the term assigned to it, with the term's definition inline. The fastest read on whether a table is governed
Authoring:
- create_glossary_term: Create a term. Publishes by default — the underlying API creates an invisible draft unless told otherwise;
update_glossary_term(publish=true) promotes one later
- import_glossary_terms: Create many terms, and their hierarchy, in one call. Children name their parent instead of needing its id, so rows can be given in any order and no id is threaded between levels; per-row failures are reported individually. Returns the
term_id of each row's term, so the next step needs no lookup, and separates rows that were genuinely new from rows whose term already existed — the import job counts both as successful. A row is written whole, so update_existing replaces the term at that path rather than merging into it. dry_run=true shows the resolved rows without importing — the interactive view turns that into a table with an Import button
- update_glossary_term: Change a term's text, parent or attributes. Merges onto the current term, so omitted fields are left alone rather than blanked;
parent_id moves it in the hierarchy, and publish promotes a draft. A draft is a separate resource in the API, so this routes the write accordingly — editing one otherwise fails with a bare 404
- delete_glossary_term: Permanently delete a term and every assignment that referenced it. There is no cascade — a term with children is refused, so delete a subtree leaf-first
- assign_glossary_term / unassign_glossary_term: Attach a term to a table column, or detach it. This is the step that makes a term govern data — a term with no assigned assets governs nothing
Designing the vocabulary:
- create_glossary_term_type / update_glossary_term_type / delete_glossary_term_type: Define the template terms are created from — which custom attributes they carry, which are mandatory, and what values each accepts. An edit matches attributes by label and keeps each one's identifier, so terms already carrying a value do not lose it — to rename one, give its
attribute_id alongside the new label, since a new label matches nothing and would otherwise mint a new attribute; delete refuses while terms still use the type
Terms assigned this way also become searchable through Tier 1's catalog_search using the Column.term:"<term name>" facet on the datasets index, which returns the tables carrying a term without resolving individual columns.
Tier 10 — Decisioning Advanced (SAS Intelligent Decisioning)
SAS Intelligent Decisioning content beyond rule sets, for the decision flows of Tier 7: segmentation trees (written, or built from a strategy table), value lists, code files in DS2, Python and SQL, and DS2 custom functions that rule expressions call. Everything is stored in a folder, as in Tier 7. Using what this tier creates — as decision steps, and reading, locking, copying or deleting it — takes Tier 7, so enable the two together; with Tier 10 alone the server logs a warning at startup.
Segmentation trees:
- create_segmentation_tree / update_segmentation_tree: Write a tree: nodes test a variable against values (
"A;B"), comparisons (">=630"), ranges ("600<=v<630") or "Other", in order; outcomes assign variables or run DS2. An update replaces only the parts given
- create_segmentation_tree_from_table: Build one tree from a strategy table — one row per branch, a column per decision key — as FICO-style exports (TRIAD, Blaze) describe a strategy. Keys are tested in column order and only where they split; values are range lower bounds (
split="lower_bound") or exact values. Reads inline rows, a CSV, or a CAS table (load an Excel sheet with upload_data), can create a value list per variable, and reports leaves, outcomes and any rows whose path is identical but whose outcome differs
Value lists, code files and custom functions:
- create_value_list / update_value_list_entries: Value lists of values or numeric ranges (
"v>=630"); a version in production is left alone and a new version takes the entries
- create_code_file / update_code_file: DS2, Python or SQL code files; Viya reads the signature from the code, and
signature supplies the types Python cannot state
- create_custom_function / update_custom_function: DS2 custom functions that rule expressions call, checked to compile first; a category named but missing is created
- validate_custom_function: Compile a custom function without saving it and return the compiler's error lines

MCP Client Configuration
Example configurations are provided in the examples/ folder. Below are quick-start snippets for common clients.
Tip — open the endpoint in a browser. In HTTP mode, pointing a browser at the MCP URL (e.g. http://localhost:8134/mcp, or https://<host>/mcp for a deployed server) shows a landing page instead of a bare 401: what the server is, which SAS Viya it talks to, the tool tiers this deployment exposes with a one-line summary per tool, and ready-to-copy configuration for Claude Code, VS Code, Cursor, Claude connectors and generic mcp.json clients — with the deployment's real URL already filled in. Only a plain browser GET (Accept: text/html) is answered this way; MCP clients and curl see exactly what they saw before. The page is unauthenticated and shows deployment shape only (never user data); administrators can turn it off with MCP_LANDING_PAGE=false.
VS Code / Cursor / Claude Code (.vscode/mcp.json)
HTTP mode (requires uv run app running separately):
{
"servers": {
"sas-execution-mcp": {
"url": "http://localhost:8134/mcp",
"type": "http"
}
}
}
Stdio mode (starts the server on demand):
{
"servers": {
"sas-execution-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--no-sync", "app-stdio"],
"cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
}
}
}
With the Claude Code CLI, pass the checkout with --directory:
claude mcp add --scope user sas-viya -- uv run --no-sync --directory /path/to/sas-mcp-server app-stdio
--no-sync makes the client start the server from .venv as it is; run uv sync yourself after updating (see Installation).
Gemini CLI (.gemini/settings.json)
Gemini CLI only supports stdio mode. Add to your ~/.gemini/settings.json or project-level .gemini/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"sas-viya-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--no-sync", "app-stdio"],
"cwd": "/path/to/sas-mcp-server",
"timeout": 60000
}
}
}
Note: The timeout field (in milliseconds) is important — SAS Viya API calls can take longer than the Gemini CLI default of 10 seconds. A value of 60000 (60s) is recommended. Set cwd to the absolute path of your sas-mcp-server checkout.
Example
Execute SAS code through the MCP tool:
data work.students;
input Name $ Age Grade $;
datalines;
Alice 20 A
Bob 22 B
;
run;
proc print data=work.students;
run;
For more details, configuration options, and deployment options, please refer to the examples folder and follow the instructions listed there.
Collection Mode (Usage Telemetry)
An opt-in, off-by-default mode that records how the server is actually used — which tools, for what goals, with what inputs, and where they fall short. It serves two audiences:
- Contributors giving structured feedback to the maintainers. Rather than filing prose bug reports, you can turn it on for a while and share the resulting log so maintainers can see which tools are used, which fail, and what goals have no good tool yet — a direct signal for improving existing tools and identifying new ones.
- Organizations running the server for their own users. Teams that deploy the MCP server internally can enable it to understand what their users do with it and why, entirely within their own infrastructure.
It is implemented as a FastMCP middleware wrapper (telemetry.py + usage_logger.py) and requires no changes to any tool.
🔒 Nothing is ever sent anywhere automatically. Collection mode only appends to a local log file on the machine running the server. It is disabled unless you explicitly enable it, and even when enabled the data stays on your disk — sharing it with anyone (including the maintainers) is a deliberate, manual step you take by sending the file yourself. There is no phone-home, no network transmission, and no third party involved.
When enabled it does two things:
-
Injects a required goal parameter into every tool's schema, asking the model to state in one sentence why it chose that tool for the current
request. The goal is stripped from the arguments before the real tool runs, so tools never see it.
-
Appends one JSON line per tool call (JSON Lines / NDJSON, schema v3) to a local log file: timestamp, run id, per-run sequence number, tool
name, goal, arguments (plus a stable args_hash for retry analysis), result, status, error, latency, and the calling client's
client_name / client_version. When a tool declares a failure as data
(e.g. {"status": "apply_failed"}, which the MCP layer sees as success), the record also carries tool_status / is_tool_error /
tool_message / failed_operation_index — so tool-level failure rates are analyzable in every mode. A run_start header record
(transport, pid, server version, result mode, and an optional COLLECTION_RUN_TAG label for tagging A/B runs) opens the log and is
re-emitted every 1000 records, so rotation cannot leave a stretch of the log with no header to resolve; every emission is
byte-identical, so any one of them will do. Secret-shaped keys and inline Bearer/JWT tokens are redacted, the Viya hostname is masked in
error/result text, and every field is size-capped.
Records group by run_id — one per server process — not by MCP session. The protocol is moving to a sessionless model (FastMCP 4 makes
it the default) in which session_id is absent or minted per request, so grouping on it would shatter every trace into single-call fragments.
Under stdio, one process serves one client, so a run is that client's trace. Under HTTP a run spans every client the process served, and
client_name/client_version are the only thing separating them — two users on the same client software share one run_id and one seq
counter, which is an accepted limitation of dropping the session key, not something a per-process COLLECTION_LOG_PATH can fix (that splits
by process, the axis run_id already covers).
Enabling it
Set the toggle in .env (all options are documented in .env.sample):
COLLECTION_MODE=true
# optional overrides (defaults shown):
# COLLECTION_LOG_PATH=~/.sas-mcp-server/tool-usage.log
# COLLECTION_LOG_RESULTS=failures # never | failures | always (see below)
# COLLECTION_RUN_TAG= # free-text label stamped into run_start
Tool results are recorded per COLLECTION_LOG_RESULTS — a tri-state dial: never records only a content-free shape summary (type + key
names, e.g. {"_type":"object","_keys":["status","report_id"]}); failures (the default) records full (capped + redacted) result contents only for calls that
errored or whose tool declared a failure — the middle ground, since failure diagnostics are the highest-value trace data and rarely carry
table rows, and because under never a success and a tool-declared failure are indistinguishable in the log; always records result contents on every call. Arguments, goal, status, error text, and the tool-declared outcome fields are captured in
every mode. (true/false still work as aliases for always/never.)
⚠️ Privacy: when enabled, the log captures your tool inputs (e.g. the SAS code and queries you submit) and — in failures/always modes — real
result data that may include table rows, SAS listings, and PII. Redaction is heuristic (credential-shaped keys + Bearer/JWT + the Viya hostname) and
does not detect PII in data values. Review the log before sharing it. The file is locked to your user (chmod 0600 on POSIX; icacls on
Windows, best-effort).
Performance impact
Collection mode is designed to be cheap enough to leave on. Measured on this repo (45 registered tools, FastMCP 3.4.2):
- Prompt tokens. The injected
goal field grows the tools/list schema the model sees by roughly +2,400 input tokens (~29%) per turn. Because the tool list is stable within a session it is served from the prompt cache after the first turn (steady-state ≈ +240 tokens/turn), plus ~15–30 output tokens per call for the model to write the goal sentence. This is the only client-visible cost and it applies only while collection mode is enabled.
- Per-call latency. Middleware + logging adds ≈1.4 ms per call at the shape-only default (≈5.3 ms with
COLLECTION_LOG_RESULTS=always). The JSONL
write is offloaded to a worker thread so it never blocks the event loop. Against real Viya calls (typically hundreds of milliseconds to seconds) this is
negligible — the live integration suite passed identically with collection mode off and on, the overhead lost in normal network variance.
- Disk. Roughly 0.5–0.7 KB per tool call at the shape-only default. The log rotates at
COLLECTION_MAX_LOG_BYTES (default 10 MiB, ≈16k calls) and keeps COLLECTION_LOG_BACKUPS (default 3) rotated files, so on-disk growth is bounded.
Server Log
The server log starts with one line naming what runs: the server and FastMCP versions, the transport, and the SAS Viya endpoint. After that, every tool call logs the tool and the SAS Viya user it runs as:
Tool call: execute_sas_code (user: sasdemo)
The user is the id from GET /identities/users/@currentUser, asked with the caller's own token, so it is exactly the identity Viya authorizes the call against; for a client-credentials token it is the client's id. The lookup happens once per token, not once per call, and a failed lookup logs user: unknown rather than failing the tool. On a shared HTTP deployment this is what ties a field report to the person who hit it.
HTTP Debug Trace
When a tool fails, the model's summary of the error rarely shows the request that caused it — a wrong path, a missing media type, a body of the wrong shape — and one tool call can make several requests (paging, polling a compute job, fetching its log). Set HTTP_DEBUG=true in .env to write every request the server sends to the SAS Viya APIs, and each response, to a separate file:
HTTP_DEBUG=true
# The defaults; `docker --env-file` keeps a trailing comment as part of the value, so none here.
HTTP_DEBUG_LOG_PATH=~/.sas-mcp-server/http-debug.log
# Cap per recorded body in bytes; 0 records no bodies.
HTTP_DEBUG_MAX_BODY_BYTES=4096
Each exchange is two JSON lines with the same id: a request record (method, URL, headers, body) and a response record (status, elapsed_ms, headers, body). A request with no matching response failed in transit — a timeout, a refused connection, a TLS error. The trace never goes to the server log, so it is safe in stdio mode, where stdout carries the protocol.
Authorization, cookies and other credential-shaped headers, query parameters and body keys are redacted, as are inline Bearer/JWT strings. Data values are not: table rows and SAS code appear in bodies, so review the file before sharing it. Binary bodies are recorded as their size and type, bodies are capped at HTTP_DEBUG_MAX_BODY_BYTES, and the file rotates like the collection log. The server logs a warning at startup while tracing is on; it is meant for troubleshooting, not for leaving on in a shared deployment. OAuth sign-in and token-refresh calls are not traced.
Testing
The project includes two layers of tests: unit tests (fast, no credentials required) and integration tests (run against a real SAS Viya instance).
run_tests.sh vs. running pytest directly — pick by platform. run_tests.sh is a
Bash convenience wrapper (it adds the ruff + pyright gates, credential wiring, and JUnit
reporting). It runs on Linux/macOS — and on Windows only under Git Bash or WSL. On
Windows PowerShell or cmd, use the uv run python -m pytest … commands shown
under each mode below. They are cross-platform, do the same test selection, and need no
setup beyond uv sync.
Running Unit Tests
Unit tests verify tool schemas, request payloads, and internal logic without making any network calls:
./run_tests.sh # Linux/macOS (also runs ruff + pyright)
uv run python -m pytest -m "not integration" -v # any platform, incl. Windows PowerShell
This runs the unit suite and deselects the integration tests, which then show up in the
summary as e.g. 28 deselected. That is expected — those tests are not meant to run in a
unit-only pass. They only execute in the integration modes below, because they need a live
Viya instance; there is no flag that "activates" them in a not integration run.
Running Integration Tests
Integration tests call every tool against a live Viya environment. They require credentials, provided via .env or CLI arguments.
uv sync installs everything the integration suite needs, including openpyxl (used to
build the Excel upload_data fixture). It lives in the test-formats dependency group,
which [tool.uv] default-groups syncs by default — so no extra install step is required.
Full suite (unit + integration) — reads VIYA_ENDPOINT, VIYA_USERNAME, VIYA_PASSWORD from .env:
./run_tests.sh --integration # Linux/macOS
uv run python -m pytest -v # any platform
Passing credentials on the command line (wrapper only):
./run_tests.sh --integration \
--endpoint https://your-viya-server.com \
--username youruser \
--password yourpassword
With the direct pytest command, set the same three variables in .env (or export them in your shell) instead.
Integration tests only (skip unit tests):
./run_tests.sh --integration-only # Linux/macOS
uv run python -m pytest -m integration --no-cov -v # any platform
The pytest marker is integration, not integration-only. --integration-only is a
flag of the run_tests.sh wrapper; the underlying pytest marker is just integration.
Running pytest -m "integration-only" matches no marker and silently deselects all
tests (0 selected). Use -m integration.
Why --no-cov? pytest.ini enforces a 90% coverage floor that only the full unit
suite reaches. An integration-only run exercises far less code (~65%), so without
--no-cov pytest exits non-zero with a coverage failure even though every selected
test passed. run_tests.sh --integration-only adds --no-cov for you; add it yourself
when calling pytest directly (or use --cov-fail-under=0).
Binary upload formats. The Excel upload_data integration test generates its .xlsx
fixture with openpyxl, from the test-formats group that uv sync installs by default
(see above). If you deliberately sync without it (e.g. uv sync --no-default-groups), the
test importorskips — you'll see it as skipped, not failed. csv,
tsv, and file_path/data_format coverage needs no extra deps. Generating a
sas7bdat/sashdat fixture requires SAS itself, so those two formats are covered by
unit-level payload tests only, not live.
Every one of the 115 tools and 9 prompt templates has an integration test, enforced by the
test_every_tool_has_integration_coverage / test_every_prompt_has_integration_coverage
guards — adding a new tool or prompt without integration coverage fails the suite. The
resource-dependent tests discover real targets on the instance: score_data scores the most
recently modified MAS module (discovering a real step and its inputs), and run_ml_project
re-runs the most recently modified completed ML project. They skip only if the instance
has no such resource at all. Likewise, test_catalog_agents_workflow skips with "No
discovery agent named 'Public'" on instances where SAS Data Governance has no discovery
agent named Public configured — an expected skip, not a failure; ask a Viya admin to
configure one if you need that test to run.
In CI: the .github/workflows/integration.yml workflow runs this suite on demand
(manual dispatch, or by adding the run-integration label to a PR) using repository
secrets, and publishes the results back to the PR as a status check, a sticky comment, and
a downloadable JUnit artifact. Result files are written to reports/ (git-ignored) and are
never committed.
Locally (attach results to a PR yourself): run with --report to write the JUnit XML
and a Markdown summary into reports/ (git-ignored), then post them to a PR with the GitHub
CLI — no commit, no CI required:
./run_tests.sh --integration-only --report
gh pr comment <PR> --body-file reports/integration-summary.md # summary table as a comment
gh gist create reports/integration.xml # full XML as a linkable gist
GitHub has no API/CLI to attach a binary file to a PR (drag-and-drop upload is browser-only),
so the summary is posted as a comment and the raw XML is shared via a gist link or pasted in a
collapsed <details> block. To produce the canonical Actions artifact from your machine
instead, trigger the workflow remotely: gh workflow run integration.yml.
