Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Nebius MCP Serverlist all compute instances in my project"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
[Beta] Nebius MCP Server
This service allows AI agents and assistants to fetch documentation for the Nebius services and execute Nebius CLI commands through the Model Context Protocol.
Disclaimer
Important: This is a beta version. Use it carefully and at your own risk. There are no guarantees provided regarding stability, safety, or correctness.
In the current implementation, the MCP server allows execution of any Nebius CLI commands, which may lead to destructive and insecure consequences. Always double-check the command suggested by the assistant before executing it. Never use the Allow always option for the nebius_cli_execute tool.
Scenarios
There are 2 main scenarios for this MCP server:
Get and analyze the documentation for every service
Examples (queries to the AI agent):
How to create a compute instance at Nebius?
How to create a storage bucket at Nebius?
Execute commands and get results
Examples:
Provide me a list of all storage buckets within the project: project-e00some-cool-project
Get me a list of the available compute platforms
Show the details about the compute instance by name: some-cool-instance
Requirements
Python (version >=3.13) with uv package manager installed
Nebius CLI (version >=0.12.65) installed locally with at least one profile configured
On macOS, it’s recommended to install uv via Homebrew: brew install uv.
Installation
Update to the latest version of Nebius CLI:
Use the next command to configure your MCP-compatible client (see examples below):
Restricted actions and safe mode
For safety reasons Nebius MCP server always forbids execution of any commands that either accept tokens or access keys as an argument or return them as a result.
Safe mode: by default MCP server also does not allow to execute commands that can make "update", "delete" and other commands that can make potentially dangerous changes. We don't recommend changing the default behavior. However it can be controlled using the SAFE_MODE=true|false environment variable for the MCP server.
