Which integrations are available for this server?

Provides capabilities to list existing SSL certificates and request new Let's Encrypt certificates for configured domain names. Allows for full management of Nginx Proxy Manager instances, including listing, creating, updating, and deleting proxy hosts and access lists.

How do I use Nginx Proxy Manager MCP?

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., "@Nginx Proxy Manager MCP Create a proxy host for dev.local pointing to 192.168.1.50:3000" 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.

TDQS

B3/5.0

Scored 2026-05-03 04:30 across 50 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct resource and action (e.g., create_proxy_host vs. create_redirection_host), with no overlap in purpose. All actions (create, read, update, delete, enable, disable) are clearly separated per resource.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., list_proxy_hosts, update_stream). There are no deviations or mixed conventions, making the naming highly predictable.

Tool Count3/5

50 tools is on the higher side for a single MCP server, even for a complex domain like Nginx Proxy Manager. While each tool earns its place given the multiple resource types and operations, the count feels slightly excessive and could be trimmed.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers all major CRUD and lifecycle operations for proxy hosts, streams, redirections, dead hosts, access lists, certificates, users, and settings. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no test/verify for proxies), but the core domain is thoroughly addressed.
