Connect Woodpecker CI MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Woodpecker CI to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Running Pipeline Actions on the MCP Server
You can initiate a pipeline run manually using `trigger_pipeline`, which immediately starts the build process. Check its progress or retrieve details later using `get_pipeline`. If the job needs to stop, you just call `cancel_pipeline`. For quick debugging after failure, use `restart_pipeline` and watch the logs appear directly in your editor.
Managing Repository State with Woodpecker CI
Need repo metadata? Use `get_repo` to pull all current details for a specific project. If you're working with slugs, `lookup_repo` finds the right place fast. Cline also lets you enforce ownership changes via `chown_repo`, or if a repo is obsolete, delete it using `delete_repo`. It’s all about keeping your local development synced with the server state.
Handling Agents and Credentials for Woodpecker CI
You can list every agent on the server via `list_agents` to see who's online. If you need a new worker, use `create_agent`. Managing secrets is key; Cline lets you create global keys using `create_global_secret`, or repository-specific ones with `create_repo_secret`. Updating an agent’s profile is simple with `update_agent`.
