How do I install the krexel mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `KREXEL_API_URL`, `KREXEL_API_KEY`, `KREXEL_MASTER_KEY` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

What you get

krexel-mcp is the official MCP server for Krexel — a "your AI ships and edits your live site" API. Point any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code) at this server and your assistant can deploy, list, edit, rollback, and inspect sites just by talking.
