Platform MCP Server Overview
Connect AI agents and agentic tools to Moody's Intelligent Risk Platform™.
Overview
The Platform MCP Server is a service that securely connects a tenant's AI applications with the Intelligent Risk Platform and developer resources.
The Platform MCP Server transforms Platform API specifications, documentation, and code samples into a single, queryable knowledge graph that enables Intelligent Risk Platform tenants to discover and implement catastrophe modeling and reinsurance workflows.
The Platform MCP Server is built on the Model Context Protocol, which defines a standard method for AI applications to connect to external tools and data. Supported MCP host applications include Claude Code, Cursor, IntelliJ (Jet Brains AI Assistant), and Visual Studio Code.
The MCP Server is secure. Every request must be authenticated at Moody's API gateway by an API key. AI tools have read or write access to tenant resources based on assigned entitlement and role-based access controls.
MCP Client Authentication
The Platform MCP Server restricts access to the Intelligent Risk Platform and developer resources by means of security credentials.
All tenant data remains on the Intelligent Risk Platform. Data is not duplicated, copied, or moved to an AI environment outside the Intelligent Risk Platform.
The MCP client must be assigned an API key and pass valid security credentials in every request it makes using Platform APIs. These credentials enable the Intelligent Risk Platform to authenticate the identity of the client application and confirm that the client application is authorized to access and leverage the requested resources.
To learn more about Intelligent Risk Platform™ security, see Authentication and Authorization.
Access Controls
The MCP Server leverages the Intelligent Risk Portal data access and security model based on principals, roles, groups.
Every MCP client belong to a user group that has been assigned the IRP Agentic Tools User role. This role confers permission to perform two actions:
| Action | Level | Permission |
|---|---|---|
| Access Platform MCP Server | Read | Connect to Platform MCP server and use Knowledge Graph, API Discovery, Skills, and Session Management tools. |
| Execute APIs with Platform MCP Server | Write | Use the Execution tool to make Platform API requests. |
The IRP Agentic Tools User is required to perform all read and write actions using Platform API operations.
