What is the Hetzner MCP Server?

Connect your Hetzner Cloud account to any AI agent to orchestrate your infrastructure through natural language.

What you can do

  • Server Management — List all active servers, fetch specific details, and create or delete instances on demand.
  • Power Control — Remotely power on servers or rebuild them from specific images using simple commands.
  • Networking & Security — Manage private networks, configure firewalls, and handle floating IPs to ensure connectivity.
  • Load Balancing — List and create load balancers to distribute traffic across your infrastructure efficiently.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your Hetzner Cloud API Token
  3. Start managing your cloud resources from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

No more manual navigation through the cloud console for routine checks. Your AI acts as a cloud engineer, providing instant visibility into your VPS fleet.

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — quickly audit server states and firewall rules without leaving the terminal or IDE
  • System Administrators — automate power cycles and resource monitoring through conversation
  • Developers — spin up or rebuild development environments directly from a coding assistant
