An MCP server for managing Nginx Proxy Manager, a web interface for routing domain traffic to internal services and managing HTTPS certificates. It exposes tools for hosts, streams, certificates, access lists, users, settings, audit logs, and reports.

In plain words
What is it for?

Why use it?
It lets an agent manage these proxy settings through commands instead of manually performing each operation in the service.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is VeryBigSad/nginx-proxy-manager-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on nginx-proxy-manager-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything nginx-proxy-manager-mcp configures →

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

nginx-proxy-manager-mcp 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 8d 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.

Intentionally Skipped

  • Token endpoints (auth handled internally by client)
  • User 2FA (interactive flow, not MCP-suitable)
  • User password/permissions (security-sensitive)
  • User login-as (edge case admin feature)
  • Certificate validate/upload (multipart file upload)
  • Certificate download (file download)
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
