dokploy-mcp-server: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

dokploy-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from sapientsai/dokploy-mcp-server. It costs 2,000 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Development instructions for an MCP server that lets AI assistants manage Dokploy, a self-hosted platform for deploying applications. The server provides tools for deployments, databases, domains, and servers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or validating the Dokploy MCP server, including running the full validation command, individual checks, tests, builds, development mode, or the MCP Inspector.
Why use it?
They document the project's structure and the checks required before changes are committed. This makes formatting, linting, type checking, tests, and builds repeatable.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

dokploy-mcp-server CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Overview

A comprehensive MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Dokploy - the open-source, self-hosted PaaS. Provides 27 tools (one per category, using action enums) for managing deployments, applications, databases, domains, and servers through AI assistants.

Built with FastMCP, ts-builds, and Zod. Supports stdio (default for npx/CLI) and httpStream (for Docker/remote) transports.

Development Commands

pnpm format:check    # Check formatting only

pnpm lint            # Fix ESLint issues
pnpm lint:check      # Check ESLint issues only

pnpm test            # Run tests once
pnpm test:watch      # Run tests in watch mode
pnpm test:coverage   # Run tests with coverage

pnpm build           # Production build (outputs to dist/)
pnpm dev             # Development build with watch mode

pnpm typecheck       # Check TypeScript types

pnpm inspect         # Build + open MCP Inspector to verify tools

Running a Single Test

pnpm test -- --testNamePattern="pattern"    # Filter by test name
pnpm test -- test/specific.spec.ts          # Run specific file

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
