Spec Driven Development
MCP Server that facilitates spec-driven development workflows, not just Vibe Coding.
Description from the maker (original English)
The runtime your agent deploys to — DB, storage, and a public URL in one MCP call.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
You need to fill in: BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

The persistent runtime your agent deploys to: a database, object storage, a Kafka broker, and a public URL, one MCP call.
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client) create and manage BasicDeploy containers directly. Every container comes with a PostgreSQL database, S3‑compatible object storage, a Kafka broker, 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, manage Kafka topics, check who it is authenticated as, set always‑on, and share or delete containers.
Requires Node.js ≥ 18. No install needed. npx fetches it on demand.
Get an API key at https://basicdeploy.com/api-keys (it looks like bd_…, shown once), then add this to your MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": { "basicdeploy": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "basicdeploy-mcp@latest"], "env": { "BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY": "bd_your_api_key", "BASICDEPLOY_URL": "https://basicdeploy.com" } } } }
Claude Code:
claude mcp add basicdeploy \
--env BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY=bd_your_api_key \ --env BASICDEPLOY_URL=https://basicdeploy.com \ -- npx -y basicdeploy-mcp@latest
Claude Code plugin (this repo doubles as a plugin marketplace):
/plugin marketplace add AkaciaNL/basicdeploy-mcp
/plugin install basicdeploy-mcp@basicdeploy
Then set BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY in your environment (the plugin reads it via ${BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY}).
OpenAI Codex CLI:
codex mcp add basicdeploy \
--env BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY=bd_your_api_key \ --env BASICDEPLOY_URL=https://basicdeploy.com \ -- npx -y basicdeploy-mcp@latest
or add it directly to ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.basicdeploy]
command = "npx" args = ["-y", "basicdeploy-mcp@latest"] env = { BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY = "bd_your_api_key", BASICDEPLOY_URL = "https://basicdeploy.com" }
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY | Yes | Your API key (bd_…). Required to call any tool (the server still starts and lists its tools without it, so clients can introspect it). |
BASICDEPLOY_URL | No | API base URL. Defaults to https://basicdeploy.com. |
| Tool | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|
list_containers | (none) | List your containers: subdomain, status, URL, id, createdAt. |
create_container | memoryMb? (256/512/1024/2048), alwaysOn? | Create a container. Database + S3 bucket provisioned automatically. Larger sizes need Pro/Scale; always‑on on Free uses a paid add‑on slot. |
get_container | containerId | Full details: URL, status, ports, DB name/user, S3 bucket, volume path. |
deploy_app | tarballPath, containerId? | Deploy a .tar/.tar.gz/.tgz/.zip from disk. Unpacks to /workspace, auto‑detects the runtime, and starts the app on :8080. Omit containerId to create a new container; pass one to deploy into an existing container. |
exec_command | containerId, command | Run a shell command inside the container; returns output + exit code. |
get_logs | containerId, tail? (default 200) | Fetch recent container logs. |
set_always_on | containerId, enabled | Turn a container's 24/7 always‑on flag on/off. |
wake_container | containerId | Wake a slept container so it serves traffic again. |
sleep_container | containerId | Sleep a running container to free memory (wakes on next request). |
get_account | (none) | 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. |
whoami | (none) | The account this connection is authenticated as (email + id). |
get_kafka | (none) | Kafka connection details (SASL/SCRAM): internal + external bootstrap, username/password, consumer‑group prefix, topics, usage and limits. Provisions on first call. |
create_topic | label? | Create a Kafka topic (auto‑namespaced under your prefix; optional readable label). Fails if the topic/storage budget is exceeded. |
purge_topic | name | Empty a topic you own (deletes its messages, keeps the topic). Restart processing after a mistake. |
delete_topic | name | Permanent: delete a topic you own and all its messages. |
Deployed apps must listen on 0.0.0.0:8080, the port the public URL serves. DATABASE_URL, S3_ENDPOINT / S3_ACCESS_KEY / S3_SECRET_KEY / S3_BUCKET, and KAFKA_BOOTSTRAP / KAFKA_USERNAME / KAFKA_PASSWORD / KAFKA_GROUP_PREFIX are preset in the container environment. Startup output goes to /workspace/deploy.log.
