Which integrations are available for this server?

Provides tools to manage Hetzner Cloud resources: servers, SSH keys, Cloud Volumes, Storage Boxes, and live metrics. Allows creating, listing, deleting, and modifying servers, volumes, storage boxes, etc.

How do I use Hetzner MCP Server?

1. Click on "Install 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., "@Hetzner MCP Server Show me all running 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.

Hetzner MCP Server

npm version

An MCP server that gives Claude Code 40 tools to manage Hetzner Cloud — servers, SSH keys, Cloud Volumes, Storage Boxes, and live metrics.

Quick Start

npm install -g @jurislm/hetzner-mcp

Add to your Claude Code MCP config (usually ~/.claude.json — run /mcp to confirm the location):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hetzner": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@jurislm/hetzner-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HETZNER_API_TOKEN": "your-api-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Code. Done.

Environment Variables

Variable	Required	Description
`HETZNER_API_TOKEN`	✅	Cloud API token — Read & Write. Generate at console.hetzner.cloud → project → Security → API Tokens.
`HETZNER_API_TOKEN_UNIFIED`	Storage Boxes only	Unified API token for Storage Box tools. Generate at console.hetzner.com/account/security/api-tokens. Falls back to `HETZNER_API_TOKEN` if unset, but a Cloud project token will return `401`.

Why two tokens?

Storage Box tools call api.hetzner.com/v1 (unified API), while all other tools call api.hetzner.cloud/v1 (Cloud API). The two endpoints use different token namespaces. If you want the simplest setup, generate a single unified token from console.hetzner.com and use it for both variables.

Capabilities and Limitations

This MCP can:

Create, manage, and monitor servers
Manage SSH keys, Cloud Volumes, and Storage Boxes
Report CPU, disk I/O, network, and RAM usage

This MCP cannot:

Create Hetzner projects (do that in the web console)
Manage billing, firewalls, load balancers, floating IPs, or networks
See resources outside the project whose token you provide

⚠️ Creating servers costs real money. Hetzner bills by the hour — a cx22 runs ~~€0.006/hr (~~€4/mo), a cx52 runs ~~€0.119/hr (~~€86/mo). Always delete servers you are not using.

Troubleshooting

HETZNER_API_TOKEN environment variable is required — token is missing from the MCP config env block. Restart Claude Code after adding it.

401 Unauthorized on Storage Box tools — you need a unified token from console.hetzner.com/account/security/api-tokens, not a Cloud project token. Set it as HETZNER_API_TOKEN_UNIFIED.

hetzner_get_server_ram connection error — check that the server is running, port 22 is reachable, and ssh_user (default root) has SSH access via a key loaded in the agent.

Development

bun install
bun run build       # compile TypeScript to dist/
bun run dev         # watch mode
bun run test        # vitest
bun run typecheck   # tsc --noEmit
bun run lint        # eslint --max-warnings=0

To test locally without publishing:

HETZNER_API_TOKEN="your-token" bun dist/index.js
