How to Use the Coolify MCP in Cline

Q: Can Cline reboot a stuck Coolify application?

Yes. Cline uses restartapplication to recycle container states and clear memory. It monitors the application status until the container is fully operational again.

Q: Does Cline need manual approval to deploy to Coolify?

No. Once you grant permissions, Cline runs triggerdeployment autonomously. It fetches your latest Git commits, builds the container, and verifies the active Traefik FQDN.

Q: Can I query my server nodes through Cline?

Yes. Cline uses listservers to identify active Docker swarms. It can check connection statuses and running ports to help you debug hosting issues.

Let Cline manage your self-hosted Coolify builds and server nodes directly from your VS Code sidebar.

Perplexity

Automate build pipelines with this MCP Server

Triggering a build with the `trigger_deployment` tool pulls your latest Git commits and rebuilds your Nixpacks image. Cline triggers this build directly when you ask it to push a local bug fix to production. Cline doesn't just run the build. It checks `get_application` to monitor the assigned Traefik reverse proxy paths and verifies the deployment succeeded.

Link databases to your codebases

Reading configuration schemas with `get_database` extracts details for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Redis. Cline reads these details to write matching database client code in your workspace. By calling `list_databases`, Cline finds the correct connection strings. It then writes the database connection logic, tests the integration, and commits the code to your repository.

Manage container lifecycles from VS Code

Halting container execution with `stop_application` suspends web perimeter ingress immediately. Cline invokes this tool if it detects critical test failures or security alerts during a local run. Using this MCP tool, Cline uses `start_application` or `restart_application` to bring your services back online. This updates your running container states with your latest environment configurations.
