# BasicDeploy MCP Server
The persistent runtime your agent deploys to — DB, storage, URL, one MCP call.
**The persistent runtime your agent deploys to — a database, object storage, and a public URL, one MCP call.**
An [MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that lets AI coding agents — Claude Code, Cursor, and any other MCP client — deploy and manage [BasicDeploy](https://basicdeploy.com) containers directly: create containers, deploy apps from a tarball, run commands, read logs, and share or delete containers.
An [MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that lets AI coding agents — Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client — create and manage [BasicDeploy](https://basicdeploy.com) containers directly. Every container comes with a PostgreSQL database, S3‑compatible object storage, environment variables, and a public HTTPS URL, all provisioned automatically. Your agent can create containers, deploy apps (Node, Python, Go, or Docker — auto‑detected), run commands, read logs, set always‑on, and share or delete containers.
## Install
- 🌐 Site: https://basicdeploy.com
- 📦 npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/basicdeploy-mcp
- 📚 Docs: https://basicdeploy.com/docs
Requires Node.js >= 18.
## Quick start
```bash
cd mcp
npm install
```
Requires Node.js ≥ 18. No install needed — `npx` fetches it on demand.
You can also run it via `npx`/the `basicdeploy-mcp` bin once published, or point your MCP client at `node /path/to/mcp/src/index.js`.
Get an API key at **https://basicdeploy.com/api-keys** (it looks like `bd_…`, shown once), then add this to your MCP client:
## Get an API key
1. Log in to the BasicDeploy dashboard.
2. Go to **API Keys** and click **Create**.
3. Copy the key (it looks like `bd_<40 characters>`) — it is shown only once.
The server reads two environment variables:
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY` | Yes | Your API key (`bd_...`). The server refuses to start without it. |
| `BASICDEPLOY_URL` | No | API base URL. Defaults to `https://basicdeploy.com`. |
## Configure Claude Code
```bash
claude mcp add basicdeploy \
--env BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY=bd_your_key_here \
--env BASICDEPLOY_URL=https://basicdeploy.com \
-- node /absolute/path/to/mcp/src/index.js
```
## Configure via `mcpServers` JSON (Cursor, Claude Desktop, etc.)
```json

| `set_always_on` | `containerId`, `enabled` | Turn a container's 24/7 always‑on flag on/off. |
| `get_account` | — | Your plan, container limit (plan + add‑ons), selectable memory sizes, storage limit, and add‑ons. |
| `share_container` | `containerId`, `email`, `expiresInHours?` | Share a container with another user by email (they get a sign‑in link). Omit `expiresInHours` for an unlimited share. |
| `delete_container` | `containerId` | **Permanent** — destroys the container, its database, and all files. |
## Runtime
Deployed apps must listen on `0.0.0.0:8080` — that's the port the public URL serves. `DATABASE_URL` and `S3_ENDPOINT` / `S3_ACCESS_KEY` / `S3_SECRET_KEY` / `S3_BUCKET` are preset in the container environment. Startup output goes to `/workspace/deploy.log`.
## Example prompts
Once configured, you can ask your agent things like:
- "Create a 1GB always‑on container and deploy `./dist/app.tar.gz` to it — give me the URL."
- "Show the last 100 log lines of my `blue-fox` container."
- "What plan am I on and how many containers can I run?"
- "Share my container with teammate@example.com for 24 hours."
- "Deploy `./dist/app.tar.gz` to BasicDeploy and give me the URL."
- "Show me the last 100 log lines of my `blue-fox` container."
- "Run `ls -la /app` inside container `<id>`."
- "Share my container with teammate@example.com."
