Production Setup

Production deployment considerations for vCon MCP Server.

Environment Variables

Required

SUPABASE_URL=https://your-project.supabase.co
SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=your-service-role-key
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your-anon-key
MCP_HTTP_STATELESS=true  # Required for multi-instance deployments

Recommended

NODE_ENV=production
MCP_TOOLS_PROFILE=full       # or: readonly, user, admin, minimal
LOG_LEVEL=info
OTEL_ENABLED=true            # Enable observability
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key      # For embeddings
REDIS_URL=redis://host:6379  # For caching

Multi-Instance Deployment

# docker-compose.prod.yml
version: '3.8'
services:
  vcon-mcp:
    image: public.ecr.aws/r4g1k2s3/vcon-dev/vcon-mcp:main
    deploy:
      replicas: 3
    environment:
      - MCP_HTTP_STATELESS=true
    env_file:
      - .env.production
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "wget", "--spider", "-q", "http://localhost:3000/api/v1/health"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 3

Important: MCP_HTTP_STATELESS=true is required for multi-instance deployments.

Resource Recommendations

Workload	CPU	Memory	Replicas
Development	0.25	256Mi	1
Small	0.5	512Mi	1-2
Medium	1	1Gi	2-3
Large	2	2Gi	3+

Health Check

curl http://localhost:3000/api/v1/health

Graceful Shutdown

The server handles SIGTERM gracefully - completes in-flight requests before exiting:

docker stop --time=30 vcon-mcp
