name: sonarqube-mcp description: Query and manage code quality using SonarQube/SonarCloud MCP tools. Use when checking quality gates, finding issues, analyzing code snippets, understanding SonarQube rules, or working with code quality metrics.

SonarQube MCP

Use SonarQube/SonarCloud MCP tools to check code quality, find issues, and analyze code before pushing.

Quick Actions

Check Quality Gate

Copyget_project_quality_gate_status
  projectKey: "org_project"
  pullRequest: "123"  # or branch: "feature-branch"

• status: "OK" = passes
• status: "ERROR" = fails
• Check conditions array for specific metrics

Find Issues

Copysearch_sonar_issues_in_projects
  projects: ["org_project"]
  pullRequestId: "123"
  severities: ["BLOCKER", "CRITICAL"]  # optional filter

Analyze Code Before Push

Copyanalyze_code_snippet
  code: "your code here"
  language: "typescript"  # or go, python, java, etc.

This runs analysis WITHOUT triggering CI - great for catching issues early.

Understand a Rule

Copyshow_rule
  key: "typescript:S1082"  # or go:S3776, etc.

Mark False Positive

Copychange_sonar_issue_status
  key: "issue-key-from-search"
  status: ["falsepositive"]  # or ["accept"], ["reopen"]

Tips

1. Pre-commit check: Use analyze_code_snippet before pushing
2. PR status: Always check get_project_quality_gate_status with pullRequest param
3. Understand failures: Use show_rule to learn why code was flagged
4. Triage efficiently: Filter by severities: ["BLOCKER", "CRITICAL"] first
