QNAP Container Station MCP

MCP server for managing containers on a QNAP NAS via the Container Station API.

Disclaimers

This is a personal project, built for use on my own NAS. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in any way connected to QNAP Systems, Inc. QNAP and Container Station are trademarks of their respective owners.

This project is shared as-is. I make no claims about its suitability for any purpose other than my own use. Use it at your own risk.

Setup

npm install
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your QNAP credentials
npm run build

Configuration

Create a .env file (never commit this):

QNAP_URL=https://your-qnap.local
QNAP_USERNAME=container-mcp
QNAP_PASSWORD=your-password
QNAP_VERIFY_SSL=false

QNAP_VERIFY_SSL=false is needed for self-signed certificates (default on most QNAP devices).
