Category: Developer tools
You need to fill in: SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY

Install

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

Before you install

Basic checks: 0 of 1 passed
Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
You fill in yourself: SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY, SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY

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

You need

Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

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": {
    "snapdeploy": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@snapdeploy/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add snapdeploy --env SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY=your-value --env SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY=your-value -- npx -y @snapdeploy/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": {
    "snapdeploy": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@snapdeploy/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY": "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": {
    "snapdeploy": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@snapdeploy/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY": "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

SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY secret required env
Scoped personal access token (sd_pat_…) from https://snapdeploy.dev/api-keys
SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY env
Set to 1 to expose only the read tools

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 SnapDeploy safe?

It passed 0 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: SNAPDEPLOY_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 (0.1.2) reached the registry 16 days 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?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP

@snapdeploy/mcp

Deploy and manage SnapDeploy containers from your AI assistant — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, or any client that speaks the Model Context Protocol over stdio.

Say *"deploy this repo to SnapDeploy"* and get a live URL back. Builds, logs, environment variables, managed databases and custom domains — without leaving the chat.

Setup

Sign in at snapdeploy.dev, open API Keys and create a token with the deploy scope (the page generates the snippets below with your token already filled in).
Add the server to your client:

Claude Code

claude mcp add --scope user snapdeploy -e SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY=sd_pat_your_token -- npx -y @snapdeploy/mcp

Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json), Windsurf (~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json), Gemini CLI (~/.gemini/settings.json), Claude Desktop and other JSON-configured clients:

"mcpServers": { "snapdeploy": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@snapdeploy/mcp"], "env": { "SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY": "sd_pat_your_token" } } } }

Codex CLI (~/.codex/config.toml):

[mcp_servers.snapdeploy]

command = "npx" args = ["-y", "@snapdeploy/mcp"] env = { SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY = "sd_pat_your_token" }

Claude Code plugin (token stored in secure storage instead of a config file):

/plugin marketplace add AAR-Labs/snapdeploy-mcp

/plugin install snapdeploy@snapdeploy

Restart the session; the snapdeploy tools appear. Your repository must be on GitHub and GitHub must be connected to SnapDeploy once (the connector returns the link if it isn't).

Tools

Scope	Tools
`read`	`list_apps` `get_status` `get_logs` `get_deployments` `check_quota` `list_repos` `detect_env_vars`
`deploy`	`deploy` `deploy_image` `set_env` `start_container` `stop_container` `wake_container`
`manage`	`create_database` `add_domain` `assign_always_on`

Scopes nest (read ⊂ deploy ⊂ manage); the server enforces them before any tool runs. There is no delete tool, and the server refuses deletes, subscription cancellations and password changes for every token — those need a person signed in to the dashboard or the mobile app.

Prebuilt images. deploy builds from a connected GitHub repository; there is no image tool. To run a public Docker image, use the dashboard (Deploy Your Application → Docker Image) or POST /api/mobile/containers with name, image, imageTag, port, then POST /api/mobile/containers/{containerId}/start. Images must come from Docker Hub, ghcr.io, quay.io or public.ecr.aws, publish linux/amd64 or linux/arm64, and pass SnapDeploy's create-time policy check; a 400 Security policy violation is final and must not be retried. Full rules: https://snapdeploy.dev/llms-full.md

Safety model

Nothing destructive, ever. Even an agent that escalates to a raw API call with the same token gets 403 INTERACTIVE_SESSION_REQUIRED.
Secrets never reach the model. Environment-variable values come back as (set) and credentials are masked — on the server, not just in this connector.
Scoped, expiring, revocable tokens with their own rate limit. Revoke on the API Keys page and every request returns 401 from that moment.
Retry-safe deploys. Identical requests inside ten minutes return the original deployment instead of starting another build.
Plan limits are relayed, not retried. 402/429 replies carry SnapDeploy's own message and upgrade link, and the assistant is told not to retry.

Environment variables

Variable	Required	Meaning
`SNAPDEPLOY_API_KEY`	yes	Scoped token (`sd_pat_…`) or legacy API key
`SNAPDEPLOY_READ_ONLY`	no	`1` exposes only the read tools
`SNAPDEPLOY_BASE_URL`	no	Defaults to `https://snapdeploy.dev`
