Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

The runtime your agent deploys to — DB, storage, and a public URL in one MCP call.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY, BASICDEPLOY_URL

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "basicdeploy": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "basicdeploy-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "BASICDEPLOY_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add basicdeploy --env BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY=your-value --env BASICDEPLOY_URL=your-value -- npx -y basicdeploy-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "basicdeploy": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "basicdeploy-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "BASICDEPLOY_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "basicdeploy": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "basicdeploy-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "BASICDEPLOY_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY secret required env
    Your BasicDeploy API key (bd_...). Create one at https://basicdeploy.com/api-keys — required to call any tool (the server still starts without it so clients can introspect the tool list).
  • BASICDEPLOY_URL env
    BasicDeploy API base URL.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Basicdeploy MCP safe?

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.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: BASICDEPLOY_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

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).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.7) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

BasicDeploy MCP Server

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.

  • 🌐 Site: https://basicdeploy.com
  • 📦 npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/basicdeploy-mcp
  • 📚 Docs: https://basicdeploy.com/docs

Quick start

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" }

Environment variables
VariableRequiredDescription
BASICDEPLOY_API_KEYYesYour API key (bd_…). Required to call any tool (the server still starts and lists its tools without it, so clients can introspect it).
BASICDEPLOY_URLNoAPI base URL. Defaults to https://basicdeploy.com.

Tools

ToolArgumentsDescription
list_containers(none)List your containers: subdomain, status, URL, id, createdAt.
create_containermemoryMb? (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_containercontainerIdFull details: URL, status, ports, DB name/user, S3 bucket, volume path.
deploy_apptarballPath, 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_commandcontainerId, commandRun a shell command inside the container; returns output + exit code.
get_logscontainerId, tail? (default 200)Fetch recent container logs.
set_always_oncontainerId, enabledTurn a container's 24/7 always‑on flag on/off.
wake_containercontainerIdWake a slept container so it serves traffic again.
sleep_containercontainerIdSleep 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_containercontainerId, email, expiresInHours?Share a container with another user by email (they get a sign‑in link). Omit expiresInHours for an unlimited share.
delete_containercontainerIdPermanent: 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_topiclabel?Create a Kafka topic (auto‑namespaced under your prefix; optional readable label). Fails if the topic/storage budget is exceeded.
purge_topicnameEmpty a topic you own (deletes its messages, keeps the topic). Restart processing after a mistake.
delete_topicnamePermanent: delete a topic you own and all its messages.

Runtime

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.

Example prompts

  • "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."
