SonarQube — List Projects

List SonarQube projects accessible to the authenticated user. Useful for discovering project keys before running other skills.

Usage

sonar-list-projects                      # list accessible projects
sonar-list-projects my-project           # search by name (partial) or key (exact)
sonar-list-projects --page 2             # next page of results
sonar-list-projects --page-size 100      # limit page size

Prerequisites

This skill requires the SonarQube MCP Server to be configured and the tool mcp__sonarqube__search_my_sonarqube_projects to be available in your session.

If a tool fails due to authentication problems, ask the user to ensure they have given their consent for automatic token exchange through SonarQube Cloud > My Account > Access Tokens > Agent Apps. Otherwise surface the tool error verbatim and stop.

Instructions

Step 1: Parse arguments

• The first non-flag argument (if present) is the search term and maps to q.
• --page <n> maps to page (string, defaults to 1).
• --page-size <n> maps to pageSize (integer 1–500, defaults to 500).

Step 2: Validate arguments

Argument	Allowed pattern / values
search term	^[a-zA-Z0-9_\-\. ]+$
--page	positive integer
--page-size	integer 1–500

If a value fails validation, stop and tell the user what was rejected — do not run the call.

Step 3: Call mcp__sonarqube__search_my_sonarqube_projects

{
  "q": "<search-term>",
  "page": "<n>",
  "pageSize": <n>
}

Omit any field the user did not provide.

Step 4: Format the results

If projects are found:

## SonarQube Projects

Found **8 project(s)**:

| Project key       | Name            |
| ----------------- | --------------- |
| my-org_backend    | Backend Service |
| my-org_frontend   | Frontend App    |
| my-org_shared-lib | Shared Library  |

If no projects are found:

## SonarQube Projects

No projects found.

If more results are likely (response is full to pageSize): "Showing page N. Use --page <n+1> to see more, or pass a search term to narrow results."

Step 5: Next steps

• To list issues: "Invoke the sonar-list-issues skill with the project key, or rely on the MCP integration default."
• To check the quality gate: "Invoke the sonar-quality-gate skill — add a project key only if you are not using the MCP integration default."
