Before you connect
Questions about DigitalOcean.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use the DigitalOcean MCP to manage my instances?
Yes, you can use it to monitor and list your Droplets, check their IP addresses, and see their hardware specs through natural language.
Does this DigitalOcean MCP support Kubernetes?
It does. You can use it to list all your DOKS clusters and see their current health and version status.
Can I use the DigitalOcean MCP to check my DNS records?
Yes, it allows you to query all your managed domains and view your DNS configurations without opening the dashboard.
Is the DigitalOcean MCP good for monitoring database health?
It's great for that. You can quickly check the status and connection endpoints for your managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Redis clusters.
How do I connect my DigitalOcean account to my AI agent?
You'll need to create a Personal Access Token in your DigitalOcean dashboard and provide it to your AI client through the Vinkius MCP connection.
Can I see my snapshots with the DigitalOcean MCP?
Yes, you can list all your disk images and snapshots to help with resource recovery or deployment planning.
Can I use the DigitalOcean MCP to see my account actions?
It can. You can use it to audit historical account actions to see what changes have been made to your infrastructure.
How do I find my DigitalOcean Access Token?
