lpad is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI agents to Launchpad, Ubuntu's open-source project hosting and bug tracking platform.
It exposes Launchpad's bug tracking data as tools and prompts that AI assistants can use to list project bugs, fetch bug details, add comments, and update bug task statuses.
The tool supports three authentication modes: anonymous (read-only access to public data), environment variables (LAUNCHPAD_OAUTH_*), and stored OAuth credentials file.
lpad is designed to run as a stdio-based MCP server, typically invoked by an MCP client such as opencode to provide Launchpad-aware capabilities to AI-powered workflows.
Configuration for opencode
To use lpad as an MCP server with [opencode](https://github.com/opencode), add
the following to your ~/.config/opencode/opencode.jsonc:
```jsonc { "mcp": { "lpad": { "type": "local", "enabled": true, "command": ["lpad", "mcp"] } } } ```
