## โ๏ธ Configuration
### Environment Variables
Create a `.env` file or set the following environment variables:
```env
# 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:
```bash
echo $SERVICE_ROLE_KEY
```
## ๐ฏ Usage
### โ ๏ธ 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:
```json
{
"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!**
---
### ๐ Configuration Options
The server supports three methods for providing environment variables (in priority order):
1. **MCP Config `env` section** โญ RECOMMENDED - Works for everyone, self-contained
2. **System environment variables** - For advanced users who want credentials outside config
3. **`.env` file with wrapper script** - For local development only (not scalable)
**For detailed setup instructions for each method, see:** [MCP_CONFIGURATION.md](MCP_CONFIGURATION.md)
**Common Mistake:** โ Leaving placeholder values like `https://your-supabase-instance.example.com`
**Solution:** โ
Replace ALL placeholders with your actual URLs and credentials!

```bash
# Using npm
npm run diagnose
# Or on Windows
.\diagnose.ps1
# Or on Linux/Mac
./diagnose.sh
```
The diagnostic tool will automatically check:
- โ
`.env` file existence and configuration
- โ
Required environment variables
- โ
Coolify API connection and authentication
- โ
Supabase connection and authentication
- โ
All Supabase services health
- โ
Network connectivity
### Expected Output (When Working)
```
๐ข ALL CHECKS PASSED - MCP Server should work correctly
โ

```bash
โ .env file NOT found!
```
**Fix**: `cp env.example .env` then edit with your credentials
#### Placeholder Values
```bash
โ ENV: COOLIFY_API_TOKEN: Contains placeholder value
```
**Fix**: Replace `your-coolify-api-token-here` with actual token from Coolify Dashboard โ Keys & Tokens
#### Wrong Supabase Key
```bash
โ Supabase Authentication: Invalid service role key
```
**Fix**: Make sure you're using the **service_role** key, NOT the anon key!
Get it from: Supabase Dashboard โ Settings โ API โ `service_role` key
#### Connection Failed
```bash
โ Coolify Connection: ECONNREFUSED
```
**Fix**: Verify Coolify is running and accessible at the configured URL
### Getting Credentials
**Coolify API Token**:
1. Coolify Dashboard โ Profile โ Keys & Tokens โ API Tokens

TDQS
Scored across 56 tools
Tools are generally distinct by domain (Supabase vs Coolify), but overlaps exist: multiple rollback tools (rollback_last_migrations, rollback_migration, rollback_migration_with_down_sql, rollback_to_version) and edge function deployment (deploy_edge_function vs supabase_functions_deploy). Notes like execute_sql suggesting supabase_cli_execute add ambiguity.
Naming is inconsistent: some tools use verb_noun (create_migration_with_rollback), others use supabase_ prefix (supabase_db_diff), and Coolify tools mix verb_coolify_noun (deploy_coolify_application) and get/list variations (get_coolify_database vs list_coolify_databases). No consistent pattern.
56 tools is excessive for a server covering two platforms. Many tools are thin wrappers over CLI commands (supabase_*), leading to redundancy. A more focused set (20-30 tools) would be more manageable.
The tool set covers major workflows: migrations, edge functions, storage, auth, realtime for Supabase, and CRUD for Coolify applications/services. Minor gaps like database backup/restore are present, but overall lifecycle coverage is strong.
