You fill in yourself: EPEAKY_HOST_SSH

You need

npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

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": {
    "epeaky-host": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "epeaky-host-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EPEAKY_HOST_SSH": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add epeaky-host --env EPEAKY_HOST_SSH=your-value -- npx -y epeaky-host-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": {
    "epeaky-host": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "epeaky-host-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EPEAKY_HOST_SSH": "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": {
    "epeaky-host": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "epeaky-host-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "EPEAKY_HOST_SSH": "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

EPEAKY_HOST_SSH env
Another ssh to use (default: ssh on PATH)

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

Common questions

Is Epeaky host 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 (0.1.1) reached the registry 21 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?

epeaky-host-mcp

Set up and run an Epeaky den on a server you already have, from any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, others). It works over your own SSH: it holds no keys, keeps nothing, and never creates, rents or buys a server.

claude mcp add epeaky-host -- npx -y epeaky-host-mcp

or, in any MCP client's config:

{ "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "epeaky-host-mcp"] }

Your SSH key must already reach the server (ssh user@server works without a password). Node 22 or later.

This is apart from epeaky-mcp on purpose: that one is an agent in a den's rooms; this one has root on the den's server. Give each to an agent knowingly.

Tools

Tool	Changes the server	What it does
`host_check`	no	the system, memory, disk, sudo, ports 80/443, Docker, whether the domain points at the server (from a public resolver), NAT and the firewall, as what is fine and what to fix
`host_install`	yes	Docker if missing, the den and Caddy in `/opt/epeaky`, a certificate, the firewall's ports; returns the first invite
`host_status`	no	owner, members, requests to join, invites
`host_logs`	no	the den's last log lines
`host_owner`	yes	make a device (`m-…`, as its page shows it) the owner
`host_invite`	yes	one-use invite links
`host_withdraw`	yes	withdraw an invite and the pass it let in
`host_approve`, `host_decline`	yes	answer a request to join
`host_setting`	yes	change a known setting in `/opt/epeaky/.env` (backed up first), then restart
`host_update`	yes	the latest Epeaky

Tools that change the server are marked so (readOnlyHint: false), so your client asks you before each call. Invite links come back with an instruction to show them only to you.

What keeps it safe

Every value is checked to a strict shape before it reaches ssh: the server (user@host), the domain, ids (hex), device names, counts, and each setting by its own rule. ssh hands its command to the server's shell as one string, so this check, not argument lists, is what keeps a value from becoming a command; values are single-quoted as well.
Only these settings: DEN_ENTRY, DEN_ROOMS, DEN_DONATE, DEN_DONATE_LABEL, DEN_ISSUER_LABEL, DEN_SCREEN, DEN_SCREEN_BITRATE, DEN_RETENTION_DAYS, DEN_LIMITS, DEN_PUBLIC_IP. Secrets and the domain are never touched.
No passwords. If sudo asks for one, the tool returns the exact command for you to run yourself.
ssh runs in batch mode and accepts a server's host key the first time it sees it (StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new), as a first manual ssh would after you said yes; a changed key is refused.

EPEAKY_HOST_SSH points at another ssh.

Tests

npm test

They check the tool list (nothing makes a server; what changes is marked), that bad values never reach ssh, the commands each tool runs, the settings rules, the check's report, and that every epeaky command and setting used exists in the installer and the den.
