Description

Add a Community / Third-party README entry for an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) MCP server (Python). Docs-only change; no code in this repo is modified.

Inserted line (alphabetized under “O”):

• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) (by karthiksuku) – Python MCP server for OCI (Compute, Autonomous Database, Object Storage); read-heavy with safe start/stop; works with Claude/Continue/Inspector.

Server Details

• Repo: https://github.com/karthiksuku/oci-mcp
• Language: Python
• Scope: OCI (Compute instance list/details & safe actions, Autonomous Database discovery, Object Storage buckets), quick security posture checks, optional Usage API cost summary
• Clients: Claude Desktop, Continue (VS Code), MCP Inspector

Rationale

This fills OCI coverage in the MCP ecosystem with a safe-by-default infra server and clear setup docs.

Security Considerations

• Read-heavy by default
• Only safe instance actions (soft stop/start); no destructive operations enabled by default
• Guidance for scoping via .env (compartments/tenancy)

How Has This Been Tested?

• MCP Inspector (stdio): list_compartments, list_compute_instances, get_instance_details, list_autonomous_databases, list_storage_buckets, perform_security_assessment, and instance_action (SOFTSTOP/START)
• Continue (VS Code): loaded via .continue/mcpServers/oci.yaml and executed tools successfully

Breaking Changes

None (README only).

Types of changes

• Documentation update

Checklist

Additional context

Repo includes MIT license, CI workflow, .gitignore excluding secrets (.env, .venv), and setup for Claude/Continue/Inspector.
