Ploi MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes Ploi.io API functionality as tools for AI assistants like Claude.

Deploy your sites with a simple "deploy" command - no clicking around in dashboards!

Features

  • One-command deployments - Just say "deploy" and watch it happen
  • Auto-wait - Deployments wait for completion and report success/failure
  • Project linking - Link projects to Ploi sites with .ploi.json
  • Full server management - List, restart, view logs
  • Site management - Deploy, suspend, resume, view logs
  • Database management - List databases, create backups

Installation

Option 1: Global Install (Recommended)

npm install -g ploi-mcp

Option 2: No Install (using npx)

Skip installation - npx will download and run it automatically when configured.

Quick Start

Step 1: Get your API token

Get your token from ploi.io/profile/api-keys

Step 2: Configure Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude.json:

If you installed globally:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ploi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "ploi-mcp",
      "args": ["--token", "YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

If using npx (no install):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ploi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ploi-mcp", "--token", "YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Restart Claude Code

Close and reopen Claude Code for the MCP server to load.

Step 4: Link your project

In Claude Code, say:

"Link this project to mydomain.com"

Step 5: Deploy anytime

Just say:

"deploy"

That's it! The deployment will run and notify you when complete.

Configuration

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ploi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "ploi-mcp",
      "args": ["--token", "YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

Or using environment variable:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ploi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "ploi-mcp",
      "env": {
        "PLOI_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add to config file:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ploi": {
      "command": "ploi-mcp",
      "args": ["--token", "YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

Usage

Command Line Options

ploi-mcp --token YOUR_TOKEN
ploi-mcp -t YOUR_TOKEN
PLOI_API_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN ploi-mcp

Project Setup

Link a project to its Ploi site for one-command deployments:

"Link this project to mydomain.com"

This creates .ploi.json in your project:

{
  "server_id": 12345,
  "site_id": 67890
}

Now just say "deploy" and it will:

  1. Trigger deployment
  2. Wait for completion (polling every 5 seconds)
  3. Report success or failure
