āš™ļø Configuration

Environment Variables

Create a .env file or set the following environment variables:

# Required: Coolify Configuration COOLIFY_API_URL=http://localhost:8000 COOLIFY_API_TOKEN=your-coolify-api-token-here # Required: Supabase Configuration SUPABASE_URL=https://your-supabase-instance.example.com SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=your-supabase-service-role-key # Optional: Coolify Team COOLIFY_TEAM_ID=optional-team-id # Optional: Supabase Additional Config SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your-supabase-anon-key SUPABASE_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id SUPABASE_PROJECT_REF=your-project-ref SUPABASE_FUNCTIONS_URL=https://your-supabase-instance.example.com/functions/v1 # Optional: Direct Database Access SUPABASE_DB_HOST=localhost SUPABASE_DB_PORT=5432 SUPABASE_DB_NAME=postgres SUPABASE_DB_USER=postgres SUPABASE_DB_PASSWORD=your-db-password

Getting API Tokens

Coolify API Token

  1. Log into your Coolify instance

  2. Navigate to "Keys & Tokens" > "API tokens"

  3. Click "Create New Token"

  4. Select permissions (recommended: * for full access)

  5. Copy the generated token

Supabase Service Role Key

For self-hosted Supabase:

  1. Log into your Supabase dashboard

  2. Go to Settings > API

  3. Copy the service_role key (keep this secure!)

Or from your Supabase deployment environment variables:

echo $SERVICE_ROLE_KEY

šŸŽÆ Usage

āš ļø IMPORTANT: Environment Variables Required

The MCP server requires environment variables to connect to Coolify and Supabase.

Recommended Setup (Works for Everyone):

Add environment variables directly to your MCP configuration:

{ "mcpServers": { "supabase-coolify": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "supabase-coolify-mcp-server"], "env": { "COOLIFY_API_URL": "http://your-coolify-url:8000", "COOLIFY_API_TOKEN": "your-actual-token", "SUPABASE_URL": "https://your-supabase-url.com", "SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY": "your-actual-service-role-key" } } } }

Replace the placeholder values with your actual credentials!

šŸ“– Configuration Options

The server supports three methods for providing environment variables (in priority order):

  1. MCP Config ā­ RECOMMENDED - Works for everyone, self-contained

  2. System environment variables - For advanced users who want credentials outside config

  3. .env - For local development only (not scalable)

For detailed setup instructions for each method, see: MCP_CONFIGURATION.md

Common Mistake: āŒ Leaving placeholder values like https://your-supabase-instance.example.com
Solution: āœ… Replace ALL placeholders with your actual URLs and credentials!

With Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
