---

📋 Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+ installed
• Coolify instance running (4.0.0-beta.380+)
• Coolify API token with appropriate permissions

---

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install globally
npm install -g coolify-mcp-server

# Or use with npx (no installation required)
npx coolify-mcp-server

Configuration

The server requires two environment variables:

export COOLIFY_BASE_URL="https://your-coolify-instance.com"
export COOLIFY_TOKEN="your-api-token-here"

Getting an API Token

1. Log into your Coolify instance
2. Navigate to Keys & Tokens → API Tokens
3. Create a new token with permissions:
   • ✅ read - Fetch information
   • ✅ write - Manage resources
   • ✅ deploy - Deployment operations

MCP Client Setup

Add to your MCP settings configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coolify": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "coolify-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "COOLIFY_BASE_URL": "https://your-coolify-instance.com",
        "COOLIFY_TOKEN": "your-api-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windows (Cline):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coolify": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "coolify-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "COOLIFY_BASE_URL": "https://your-coolify-instance.com",
        "COOLIFY_TOKEN": "your-api-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

💡 Usage Examples

Example 1: Batch Restart Applications

// Restart all staging applications after deployment
const result = await client.callTool('batch_restart_applications', {
  application_uuids: [
    'staging-api-uuid',
    'staging-web-uuid',
    'staging-worker-uuid'
  ],
  parallel: true
});

// Result in ~3 seconds instead of 30 seconds!
// {
//   "total": 3,
//   "successful": 3,
//   "failed": 0,
//   "results": [...]
// }

Example 2: Rotate API Keys Across All Apps

// Update API key across all applications with automatic restart
const result = await client.callTool('batch_update_env_vars', {
  application_uuids: [
    'app-1-uuid',
    'app-2-uuid',
    'app-3-uuid'
  ],
  env_vars: {
    'API_KEY': 'new-secure-key-value',
    'API_VERSION': 'v2'
  },
  restart_after_update: true
});

// All apps updated and restarted in ~5 seconds!

Example 3: Environment Startup

// Start entire development environment
await client.callTool('batch_start_services', {
  service_uuids: [
    'postgres-uuid',
    'redis-uuid',
    'mongodb-uuid',
    'rabbitmq-uuid'
  ]
});

// All services started simultaneously!

Example 4: Server Management

// List all servers
const servers = await client.callTool('list_servers', {});

// Get server resource usage
const resources = await client.callTool('get_server_resources', {
  server_uuid: 'server-uuid'
});

// Create new server
const newServer = await client.callTool('create_server', {
  name: 'Production Server',
  ip: '192.168.1.100',
  port: 22,
  user: 'root',
  private_key_uuid: 'key-uuid'
});

Adding New Tools

1. Create tool file in appropriate category:

// src/tools/category/new-tool.ts
export class NewTool extends BaseTool {
  get name(): string { return 'new_tool'; }
  get description(): string { return 'Description'; }
  get inputSchema(): z.ZodSchema { return NewToolSchema; }

  async execute(args: any): Promise<string> {
    const data = await this.apiGet('/endpoint');
    return this.formatResponse(data);
  }
}

2. Register in ToolRegistry:

// src/tools/registry.ts
import { NewTool } from './category/new-tool.js';
// Add to toolClasses array

3. Build and test:

npm run build
