What is the Drone CI MCP Server?

Connect your Drone CI server to any AI agent to streamline your DevOps lifecycle through natural language.

What you can do

  • Build Management — List, get details, restart, or stop builds across your repositories using list_builds, get_build, and restart_build.
  • Repository Control — Enable, update, or repair repository settings and sync them with your source control provider via enable_repo and sync_user_repos.
  • Secret & Config Management — Manage environment secrets, cron jobs, and templates without leaving your chat interface using list_secrets and create_cron_job.
  • User Administration — (Admin only) Create, update, or delete users and manage organizational access with list_users and create_user.
  • Log Inspection — Fetch build logs to debug pipeline failures instantly using get_build_logs.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Provide your Drone Server URL and Personal Access Token
  3. Start orchestrating your pipelines from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — Monitor pipeline health and trigger builds via voice or text.
  • Software Developers — Check build logs and status directly from the IDE.
  • SREs — Manage secrets and cron jobs across multiple projects efficiently.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can I view the logs of a specific build to debug an error?

Yes, use the get_build_logs tool by providing the owner, repo name, and build number. Your agent will retrieve the full output from the pipeline steps.

02

How do I trigger a new build for a repository?

You can use the create_build tool to trigger a new build or restart_build to re-run an existing build number for a specific repository.

03

Is it possible to manage environment secrets through this agent?

Absolutely. You can use list_secrets, create_secret, and update_secret to manage your repository's sensitive data securely from the conversation.

04

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

05

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

06

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

07

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

08

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.

09

Server not appearing after restart

Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).

10

Authentication error

Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.

11

Tools not showing in chat

Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
