Shiplight Cloud

Sync local YAML test cases, templates, and TypeScript functions with the Shiplight cloud using MCP tools. Manage test runs, environments, folders, suites, and accounts via the REST API.

Setup

A SHIPLIGHT_API_TOKEN is required. If cloud MCP tools (save_test_case, get_test_case, etc.) are not in the tool list, the token is missing.

Tell the user:

Cloud tools are not available. Get your API token from https://app.shiplight.ai/settings/api-tokens, set SHIPLIGHT_API_TOKEN in your project's .env file, then reconnect MCP (/mcp).

If the user provides a token, append it to the project's .env file (create if needed) and tell them: "Saved to <project>/.env — make sure .env is in your .gitignore. Reconnect MCP (/mcp) to activate cloud tools."

All REST API calls require:

Authorization: Bearer $SHIPLIGHT_API_TOKEN
