DropTheHassle MCP server

How do I get my site live with my AI? Add this server and say "publish this site": your AI puts your site live on a free HTTPS link with no account. Email is optional: after go-live, it asks once if you want a .com (€19/$19, no DNS) and an optional mailbox. No tool spends money.

# Claude Code
claude mcp add dropthehassle -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp@latest

# Grok Build (Grok CLI)
grok mcp add dropthehassle -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp@latest

# Cursor: add to .cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Agent skills (publish, buy a domain, connect your own domain, domain email) for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI and more: npx skills add bosmdavid-gif/dropthehassle-skill.

Or skip the install and use the hosted connector: https://dropthehassle.com/mcp (no token and no email for a first deploy). Your AI publishes the site first and gives you the live link and a claim link; after go-live, it asks once if you want a .com (payment link, no DNS) and an optional mailbox that sends and receives. From a terminal, the same thing is npx -y dropthehassle@latest deploy . (email optional; add --email you@example.com after go-live to get the claim link mailed).

What your AI can do:

1. Publish the site on a free HTTPS link (deploy_site), with no account, and give you a claim link.

2. Check whether a domain name is free and what it costs (search_domain), straight from the domain registry.

3. Hand you a payment link for your own .com: €19 / $19 a year, including VAT in the EU, the same every year. You pay on Stripe's page, and the site then goes live on the domain with HTTPS and no DNS setup.

4. Hand you a payment link for a real mailbox on that domain: it sends and receives, read in the dashboard webmail or any mail app over IMAP/SMTP. €5 / $5 a month, including VAT in the EU.

It cannot spend money. You open the link and pay. A DropTheHassle payment link is always on checkout.stripe.com. In the ChatGPT and Claude directory apps, buying happens on dropthehassle.com.

Got a server part too? Keep it on AWS, Google Cloud, DigitalOcean or your own server, and your AI links it to your site in one step.

Package dropthehassle-mcp 0.5.2 (MIT, Node.js 18+). Registry name: io.github.bosmdavid-gif/dropthehassle.

Prices are written as €19 / $19. Contact: hello@dropthehassle.com.

Try it without an account

deploy_site works without a token. The site goes live on a free link with HTTPS and the reply contains a claim link for the human. On the hosted endpoint, search_domain and whoami also work without a token.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http dropthehassle https://dropthehassle.com/mcp

Cursor, Windsurf or any client that takes a remote mcp.json entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "url": "https://dropthehassle.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add a token (below) when you want the AI to list your sites, update them or attach a domain that is already on your account.

One-minute quickstart

1. On dropthehassle.com, open the menu (top right) and choose Connect your AI. Copy the token. It starts with dth_.

2. Paste it into the config for your editor below. Do not commit the token.

Optional: set DTH_API only if you need an API base other than https://dropthehassle.com/api/v1.

Claude Code

User scope, so it is available in every project:

claude mcp add --scope user dropthehassle --env DTH_TOKEN="dth_your-token-here" -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp

Or a project .mcp.json (Claude Code expands ${DTH_TOKEN}):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DTH_TOKEN": "${DTH_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code asks you to approve a project .mcp.json the first time you run claude in that folder.

Cursor

The button installs a stdio server named dropthehassle that runs npx -y dropthehassle-mcp and reads DTH_TOKEN from your environment.

To add it by hand, put this in ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DTH_TOKEN": "${env:DTH_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  }
}

The repo root .mcp.json is the same block, for clients that detect an MCP server from the repository.

Grok Build (Grok CLI)

Grok Build (the grok command) adds MCP servers with grok mcp add. Hosted connector, no token for a first publish:

grok mcp add --transport http dropthehassle https://dropthehassle.com/mcp

Or run the npm package locally (stdio):

grok mcp add dropthehassle -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp@latest

For account tools, pass your token. Keep it in your environment; Grok expands ${DTH_TOKEN}:

grok mcp add --transport http dropthehassle https://dropthehassle.com/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${DTH_TOKEN}'

Check it with grok mcp list and grok mcp doctor dropthehassle. Add --scope project to write .grok/config.toml in the current project instead of your user config. Grok also reads a server you already added for Claude Code (~/.claude.json) or Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json). See xAI's MCP docs.

OpenCode

Add to opencode.json (project) or ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json. Hosted connector, no token for a first publish:

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "dropthehassle": { "type": "remote", "url": "https://dropthehassle.com/mcp", "enabled": true }
  }
}

Or the local server: "dropthehassle": { "type": "local", "command": ["npx", "-y", "dropthehassle-mcp@latest"], "enabled": true }. Check it with opencode mcp list. See OpenCode's MCP docs.

Cline

Cline CLI:

cline mcp add dropthehassle https://dropthehassle.com/mcp --transport http --yes
# or the local server
cline mcp add dropthehassle --yes -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp@latest

Check it with cline config mcp. In the Cline extension: MCP Servers → Remote Servers, URL https://dropthehassle.com/mcp, transport Streamable HTTP. Or in cline_mcp_settings.json: "dropthehassle": { "type": "streamableHttp", "url": "https://dropthehassle.com/mcp" } (without type, Cline uses legacy SSE). See Cline's MCP docs.

Devin CLI

devin mcp add dropthehassle https://dropthehassle.com/mcp
# or the local server
devin mcp add dropthehassle -- npx -y dropthehassle-mcp@latest

Adding the hosted URL opens an optional DropTheHassle sign-in; you can skip it, a first publish needs no account. Check it with devin mcp list. Add -s project to write .devin/mcp_config.json. See Devin's MCP docs.

Zed

Zed Settings → AI → MCP Servers → Add Server → Add Remote Server → https://dropthehassle.com/mcp (no token for a first publish). Or add it to your Zed settings file (zed: open settings file):

{
  "context_servers": {
    "dropthehassle": { "url": "https://dropthehassle.com/mcp" }
  }
}

Or the local server:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "dropthehassle": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp@latest"] }
  }
}

With no Authorization header Zed offers the standard MCP sign-in; you can skip it, a first publish needs no account. A green dot next to the server in Settings → AI → MCP Servers means it is active. See Zed's MCP docs. A Zed extension, mcp-server-dropthehassle, will follow once it is in the marketplace.

Windsurf

Cascade reads ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json (Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.codeium\windsurf\mcp_config.json). Open it from the Cascade MCP panel. New Devin Local tabs keep secrets in the gitignored project file .devin/mcp_config.local.json. Both use the same shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DTH_TOKEN": "dth_your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Windsurf after saving so the agent reloads the server.

Smithery

smithery.yaml is a stdio config. The install wizard asks for an optional dthToken and passes it as DTH_TOKEN to npx -y dropthehassle-mcp. Leave it empty to try deploy_site anonymously.

Hosted remote

The same server is published at https://dropthehassle.com/mcp (streamable HTTP). A client mcp.json can point at that URL instead of running npx. Send the token as a Bearer header. Without the header, initialize, tools/list, deploy_site, search_domain and whoami still work; the other tools need the token.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "url": "https://dropthehassle.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer dth_your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tools

Examples: "publish the site in ./dist", "is pocketlighthouse.com free?", "give me a payment link for that .com".

Operator

Operator tools are not in the list above. They are registered only when DTH_OPS=1 is set (DTH_OPERATOR=1 is the same switch), or when a whoami check at startup shows the token belongs to the ops account. A normal token does not see them, and a call by name is rejected as an unknown tool. The API still returns 404 for those routes unless the token is the ops owner.

Claude Desktop

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropthehassle": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dropthehassle-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DTH_TOKEN": "dth_your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Paste the token in that file. Claude Desktop does not expand ${env:DTH_TOKEN}. Restart Claude after saving.
