Which integrations are available for this server?

Provides tools for managing Pterodactyl game panel servers via both Client API (power actions, files, databases, backups, schedules, allocations, subusers) and Application API (admin operations: users, servers, nodes, locations, nests/eggs).

How do I use Pterodactyl MCP Server?

1. Click on "Deploy Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Pterodactyl MCP Server list my servers" 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.

Pterodactyl MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server for managing Pterodactyl Game Panel servers via both the Client API and Application API.

Client API — manage your own servers: power actions, files, databases, backups, schedules, allocations, subusers
Application API — admin operations: users, servers, nodes, locations, nests/eggs (auto-detected from ptla_ key prefix)
Markdown (default) and JSON output formats on all read tools
Each tool is fully documented with descriptions, input schemas, and annotations (readOnly, destructive, idempotent hints)
