What is the Cloudstack MCP Server?

CloudStack MCP Server for Claude Desktop integration

What it actually does

A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides complete CloudStack infrastructure management through natural language interactions with Claude Desktop. This implementation offers extensive coverage of CloudStack 4.20 APIs with 477+ MCP tools covering 735+ API methods across 32 categories.

The CloudStack MCP Server enables seamless cloud infrastructure management by bridging CloudStack APIs with Claude's natural language interface. Users can perform complex infrastructure operations using conversational commands, eliminating the need to learn CloudStack's API syntax or command-line tools.

Configuration

You will need 7 environment variables: CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG, CLOUDSTACK_PROD_API_URL, CLOUDSTACK_PROD_API_KEY, CLOUDSTACK_PROD_SECRET_KEY, CLOUDSTACK_DEV_API_URL, CLOUDSTACK_DEV_API_KEY, CLOUDSTACK_DEV_SECRET_KEY. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

  • Node.js: Version 18.0 or higher - Claude Desktop: Latest version with MCP support - CloudStack Access: Valid API credentials with appropriate permissions

Caveats

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.

Setup and compatibility

This listing has no verified copy-paste launch configuration. Use the project documentation to confirm the entry point, runtime and authentication before registering it in your MCP client. A package name or repository alone is not a runnable configuration.
