Deploy and test the SonarQube MCP server and chatbot instantly in a cloud-hosted Meshagent Room. When the Room closes, all services and agents are also terminated.

​

Required Environment Variables

• SONARQUBE_URL: The URL of your SonarQube instance (e.g., https://my-sonarqube.com)
• SONARQUBE_ORG: Your SonarQube organization (e.g., my-org)
• SONARQUBE_TOKEN: Your personal access token for authenticating with SonarQube (YOUR_SONARQUBE_TOKEN)
• MESHAGENT_PORT: Port for the MCP service to listen on (default: 8001)

​

Steps

1. Install the Meshagent Python package:

   Copy

   Ask AI

   pip install "meshagent[all]"
   

2. Sign up and authenticate with Meshagent: See Meshagent CLI Getting Started guide

3. Start the SonarQube MCP service in a test Room:

   Copy

   Ask AI

   meshagent service test --room=test --role=agent \
     --image=meshagent/mcp-sonarqube:latest \
     --env MESHAGENT_PORT=8001 \
     --env SONARQUBE_URL=https://my-sonarqube.com \
     --env SONARQUBE_ORG=my-org \
     --env SONARQUBE_TOKEN=YOUR_SONARQUBE_TOKEN \
     --port="num=8001 path=/webhook liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable" \
     --name=mcp-sonarqube-service-test
   

   • This will start a Meshagent Room with the test MCP server available. Rooms automatically close after inactivity, cleaning up running tools and chatbots.

4. Start a chatbot connected to the MCP service:

   Copy

   Ask AI

   meshagent chatbot join --room=test \
     --agent-name=mcp-sonarqube \
     --name=mcp-sonarqube \
     --toolkit=mcp-sonarqube
   

   • This creates a chatbot in the Room with the SonarQube toolkit available.
   • Multiple tools can be added to the same agent.
   • The output will provide a browser link to the Room.

5. Test the Room:

   • Visit the Room link in your browser and send a message to interact with the MCP Server tools through the agent.

Project Level Deployment

Automate SonarQube MCP Server and bot setup across all rooms in a Meshagent project for persistent, production-grade deployments. Services and chatbots become available in every project Room on creation, with no need to manually start or manage local services.

1. Create a persistent MCP service:

   Copy

   Ask AI

   meshagent service create --role=agent \
     --image=meshagent/mcp-sonarqube:latest \
     --env MESHAGENT_PORT=8001 \
     --env SONARQUBE_URL=https://my-sonarqube.com \
     --env SONARQUBE_ORG=my-org \
     --env SONARQUBE_TOKEN=YOUR_SONARQUBE_TOKEN \
     --port="num=8001 path=/webhook liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable" \
     --name=mcp-sonarqube-service
   

2. Create a persistent chatbot for the project:

   Copy

   Ask AI

   meshagent service create \
     --image="meshagent/cli:latest" \
     --port="num=9001 path=/agent liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable participant_name=mcp-sonarqube-chatbot" \
     --env="MESHAGENT_PORT=9001" \
     --name="mcp-sonarqube-chatbot-service" \
     --command="meshagent chatbot service --agent-name=mcp-sonarqube-chatbot --toolkit=mcp-sonarqube"
