CargoShipper MCP Server provides Claude with direct access to Docker, DigitalOcean, and CloudFlare APIs for infrastructure management and automation.
CargoShipper MCP Server
A comprehensive MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides Claude with direct access to Docker, DigitalOcean, and CloudFlare APIs for infrastructure management and automation.
ā ļø IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: This tool gives AI models direct access to infrastructure management APIs that can:
- Create, modify, or delete cloud resources (potentially incurring costs)
- Modify DNS settings (potentially breaking domains)
- Manage Docker containers and images (potentially affecting running services)
- Execute destructive operations on your infrastructure
Before using:
- Ensure you understand the capabilities and risks of each API
- Start with non-production environments only
- Review all operations before execution in production
- Monitor costs and resource usage carefully
- Have backup and recovery procedures in place
AI models may:
- Misinterpret instructions and perform unintended operations
- Make mistakes in resource configuration or deletion
- Execute multiple operations when only one was intended
- Struggle with complex multi-step procedures requiring human judgment
Recommended safety measures:
- Use dedicated development/testing accounts with spending limits
- Implement least-privilege API tokens with restricted permissions
- Monitor all operations through cloud provider dashboards
- Test operations in isolated environments first
- Keep backups of critical configurations and data
š¤ VIBECODE FRIENDLY PROJECT
This project welcomes contributions from AI/LLM agents! Pull requests from Claude, GPT, and other AI models are actively encouraged.
Guidelines for AI contributors:
- Follow existing code patterns and documentation standards
- Include comprehensive commit messages explaining changes
- Test changes thoroughly before submitting PRs
- Update documentation when adding new features
⨠Easy Setup with uvx
CargoShipper is available on PyPI and works seamlessly with uvx
for easy installation and management, just like mcp-server-git
.
Quick Install from PyPI
# Run directly (recommended)
uvx cargoshipper-mcp
# Configure in your .mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cargoshipper": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["cargoshipper-mcp"]
}
}
}
Development Setup
For local development and testing:
-
Clone the repository:
cd cargoshipper-mcp
-
Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt # or create a virtual environment first python3 -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate # Linux/Mac pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Configure your APIs:
cp .env.example .env # Edit .env with your API tokens: # DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN=your_token_here # CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=your_token_here
-
Use the development MCP configuration:
# Use .mcp.dev.json for local development cp .mcp.dev.json .mcp.json

š Configuration Files
Production (.mcp.json)
{
"mcpServers": {
"cargoshipper": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["cargoshipper-mcp"]
}
}
}
Development (.mcp.dev.json)

"args": ["-m", "cargoshipper_mcp.server"],
"cwd": ".",
"env": {
"PYTHONPATH": "."
}
}
}
}
š API Credentials Setup
Create .env
file or ~/.config/cargoshipper-mcp/.env
:
# DigitalOcean API Token
DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN=your_digitalocean_token_here
# CloudFlare API Token (recommended)
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=your_cloudflare_token_here
# Alternative: CloudFlare Email + Global API Key
# CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL=your@email.com
# CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY=your_global_api_key
Getting API Tokens:
- DigitalOcean: API Tokens Page
- CloudFlare: API Tokens Page
š Usage Examples
Once configured, Claude will have access to infrastructure operations:
# Docker examples
"Run an nginx container on port 8080"
"List all running containers"
"Get logs from container abc123"
# DigitalOcean examples
"Create a small droplet in NYC3"
"List all my droplets and their costs"
"Add an A record for api.example.com"
# CloudFlare examples
"Create a new zone for mysite.com"
"Purge all cache for example.com"
"Show me analytics for the last 24 hours"

š Published on PyPI
CargoShipper MCP is now available on PyPI! Access it at: https://pypi.org/project/cargoshipper-mcp/
Setup is as simple as:
# Run directly (most common)
uvx cargoshipper-mcp
# Configure in .mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cargoshipper": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["cargoshipper-mcp"]
}
}
}
š ļø Development
Package Structure
- Uses proper Python packaging with
pyproject.toml
- Console entry point:
cargoshipper-mcp = "cargoshipper_mcp.server:main"
- Multi-path environment loading for uvx compatibility
- Type hints and comprehensive error handling throughout
Testing
python test_server.py # Validates imports and configuration
This approach follows the same pattern as mcp-server-git
and other uvx-compatible MCP servers, making it extremely easy to install and use once published!
