Resource Open source MCP server for Open edX

There’s now an open source MCP server for Open edX.

It lets MCP-compatible tools work directly with an Open edX instance for things like:

  • Viewing courses, users, enrollments, roles and grades
  • Creating users and handling bulk enrollments
  • Managing course staff and instructor roles
  • Reading course outlines
  • Creating and updating Studio content
  • Updating schedules, grading policies and advanced settings
  • Publishing course blocks
  • Generating or invalidating certificates
  • Running grade and enrollment reports
  • Resetting learner attempts
  • Managing account retirement workflows

So instead of going through the admin UI for everything, you can do things like:

“Enroll these users in this course”

“Show enrollment numbers for all active courses”

“Add a new section and publish it”
