About DigitalOcean MCP Server
Connect your DigitalOcean cloud account to any AI agent and take full control of your infrastructure management and monitoring workflows through natural conversation.
LlamaIndex agents combine DigitalOcean tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 9 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.
What you can do
- Droplet Management — List all virtual machines (Droplets) and retrieve detailed metadata including status, IP addresses, and hardware specs programmatically
- Domain & DNS Control — Query and manage your domain names and DNS configurations to ensure service availability and correct routing in real-time
- Database Monitoring — Track the status and connection endpoints of your managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Redis clusters directly through your agent
- Kubernetes Insights — List all DOKS (DigitalOcean Kubernetes Service) clusters and retrieve health metadata to oversee your containerized deployments
- Resource Inventory — Access account-wide actions, disk images, snapshots, and block storage volumes for a comprehensive high-fidelity overview
The DigitalOcean MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
