Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the UpCloud MCP Server?
Connect your UpCloud account to any AI agent to manage your high-performance cloud infrastructure through natural language. From deploying servers to monitoring resource costs, take full control of your cloud environment.
What you can do
- Server Control — List, create, start, stop, and restart cloud servers across all global regions.
- Storage Management — List, create, modify, and clone storage resources to scale your data needs.
- Infrastructure Insights — Query available zones and physical hosts to optimize your deployment strategy.
- Account & Billing — Monitor your account limits, credits, and detailed monthly billing summaries.
- Pricing Transparency — Instantly list resource prices in your account's currency to manage cloud spend.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your UpCloud API credentials
- Start managing your cloud infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more jumping between browser tabs to check server statuses or billing cycles. Your AI acts as a dedicated cloud architect and DevOps assistant.
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — automate server lifecycle management and infrastructure audits without leaving the terminal or IDE.
- Cloud Architects — quickly query zone availability and host details to plan high-availability setups.
- Finance & Ops — retrieve billing summaries and resource prices to maintain budget control over cloud environments.

Why Claude Code?
Claude Code registers UpCloud as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 46 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where UpCloud data drives decisions without human intervention.
- —
Single-command setup:
claude mcp addregisters the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart - —
Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks
- —
Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using UpCloud tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts
- —
Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

Why teams choose Vinkius for UpCloud in Claude Code
The UpCloud MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 46 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Claude Code only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure

UpCloud for Claude Code
Every tool call from Claude Code to the UpCloud MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I check my current account balance and resource limits?
Yes! Use the get_account tool to retrieve your current credits and resource limits directly from your UpCloud account.
How do I see which global locations are available for deployment?
Simply ask the agent to run the list_zones action. It will provide a complete list of physical sites where you can deploy your infrastructure.
Is it possible to restart a server using its ID?
Yes. By providing the server's UUID to the restart_server tool, your AI agent can trigger a reboot of that specific instance immediately.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
