Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
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, andrestart_build. - Repository Control — Enable, update, or repair repository settings and sync them with your source control provider via
enable_repoandsync_user_repos. - Secret & Config Management — Manage environment secrets, cron jobs, and templates without leaving your chat interface using
list_secretsandcreate_cron_job. - User Administration — (Admin only) Create, update, or delete users and manage organizational access with
list_usersandcreate_user. - Log Inspection — Fetch build logs to debug pipeline failures instantly using
get_build_logs.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Drone Server URL and Personal Access Token
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
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.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
