Inspect servers, storage, networks, databases and billing, and start, stop or back up servers.
The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi
Hosted UpCloud MCP server that lets an assistant inspect cloud servers, storage, networks, databases and billing, and start, stop, restart or back up servers.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fupcloud/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

}Use UpCloud from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — inspect servers, storage, networks, firewall rules, databases, Kubernetes, billing and the audit log, and start, stop, restart or back up servers. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own UpCloud credentials.
Live endpoint: https://upcloud.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/upcloud
https://upcloud.usefulapi.io/mcp.claude mcp add --transport http upcloud https://upcloud.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your UpCloud credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/upcloud/
On first connect you'll provide your UpCloud API token (Control Panel → Account → API tokens). They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
read tools are read-only; write tools mutate data (clients should confirm them); meta tools report usage, manage your subscription or send a feature request.
Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run upcloud_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with upcloud_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with upcloud_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Get account
The calling account: username, remaining credits and resource limits (cores, memory, storage per tier, IPs, networks, managed services). A cheap way to confirm the token works. UpCloud: GET /1.3/account.
Takes no parameters.
List zones
Available zones (data centres) with id (e.g. fi-hel1, de-fra1, us-chi1), description and whether they are public or private-cloud. Zone ids are used by every other resource. UpCloud: GET /1.3/zone.
Takes no parameters.
List server plans
Fixed-price server plans: name (e.g. 2xCPU-4GB), cores, memory, included storage size/tier and transfer, plus GPU model/amount for GPU plans. UpCloud: GET /1.3/plan.
Takes no parameters.
List prices
The price list per zone in the account's currency: per-hour prices for plans, cores, memory, storage tiers, backups, IPv4 addresses and traffic. UpCloud: GET /1.3/price.
Takes no parameters.
Get monthly billing summary
Billing summary for one month with per-resource details (servers, storages, managed databases, object storage, …: amount, hours, plan, zone, labels) and totals. Needs an account allowed to read billing. UpCloud: GET /1.3/account/billing/summary/{yearmonth}.
yearmonthrequiredresource_idList servers
Cloud servers on the account (summary: uuid, title, hostname, zone, plan, cores, memory, state, tags, labels). Filter by state, a free-text search (name, title, uuid, zone, IP, hostname, tag or template), tags or labels. Use upcloud_get_server for IPs and disks. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server.
taglabellimitstateoffsetsearchGet server details
Full details of one server: state, plan, cores/memory, network interfaces and IP addresses, attached storage devices, firewall on/off, simple-backup schedule, labels, tags and remote-access settings. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server/{uuid}.
server_uuidrequiredList storages
Storage devices: disks, backups, CD-ROM images and OS templates (uuid, title, type, tier, size GB, state, zone, labels). Narrow by `kind`: private (yours), public (UpCloud-provided), normal (disks), backup, cdrom, template or favorite. UpCloud: GET /1.3/storage[/{kind}].
kindlabelGet storage details
Details of one storage: size, tier, state (e.g. online, backuping), encryption, the servers it is attached to, its backups and backup_rule. Poll this to follow a backup started with upcloud_create_storage_backup. UpCloud: GET /1.3/storage/{uuid}.
storage_uuidrequiredList IP addresses
Every IP address on the account: address, family (IPv4/IPv6), access (public/utility/private), the server it is assigned to, zone, PTR record, floating flag and release policy. UpCloud: GET /1.3/ip_address.
Takes no parameters.
List server firewall rules
The firewall rules of one server in evaluation order (position, direction, action, family, protocol, address and port ranges, comment). Whether the firewall is enabled at all is the `firewall` field of upcloud_get_server. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server/{uuid}/firewall_rule.
server_uuidrequiredList networks
Networks visible to the account — public, utility and private SDN networks — with their IP subnets, DHCP settings, routes, attached servers and peerings. Optionally only one zone. UpCloud: GET /1.3/network/.
zonelabelList managed databases
Managed Database services (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Valkey, OpenSearch): uuid, title, type, plan, zone, state, component hosts/ports, backups and labels. Note the response can include connection URIs with credentials. UpCloud: GET /1.3/database.
labellimitoffsetList managed load balancers
Managed Load Balancer services with their frontends, backends and members, networks, plan, zone, configured status and operational state. UpCloud: GET /1.3/load-balancer.
labellimitoffsetList Kubernetes clusters
Managed Kubernetes clusters: name, uuid, zone, plan, state, network/CIDR, control-plane IP filter, labels and node groups (plan, count, state). UpCloud: GET /1.3/kubernetes.
Takes no parameters.
List managed object storages
Managed Object Storage (S3-compatible) services: uuid, name, region, configured status and operational state, public/private endpoints, custom domains and labels. UpCloud: GET /1.3/object-storage-2.
sortlimitoffsetList audit logs
Security audit trail of the account (up to 180 days): who did what to which resource, when, from which IP and via API or Hub. Filter by action, origin, resource type, time window or a keyword (UUID, username or IP). Returns total_count for paging. UpCloud: GET /1.3/audit-logs.
qlimitactionoffsetorigincreated_afterresource_typecreated_beforeStart a server
Start a stopped server (billing for a started server resumes). Fails with 409 if it is not stopped. `async` returns immediately — poll upcloud_get_server for state=started. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/start.
start_typeserver_uuidrequiredStop a server
DISRUPTIVE: stop a running server — it goes offline until started again with upcloud_start_server. soft (default) sends an ACPI shutdown; with a timeout, a hard stop follows if it is still running. hard is like pulling the plug and can lose unsaved data. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/stop.
timeoutstop_typeserver_uuidrequiredRestart a server
DISRUPTIVE: stop and start a running server. soft (default) needs a timeout: after it, timeout_action=destroy hard-stops and restarts, ignore (API default) aborts and leaves the server running. hard power-cycles immediately. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/restart.
timeoutstop_typeserver_uuidrequiredtimeout_actionBack up a storage
Take an on-demand, point-in-time backup of a storage device. Additive (nothing is overwritten) but backups are billed per GB. Asynchronous: the storage goes to a backuping/maintenance state and back to online — poll upcloud_get_storage. UpCloud: POST /1.3/storage/{uuid}/backup.
titlerequiredstorage_uuidrequiredRename a server / set its backup schedule
Change a server's title, hostname and/or simple-backup schedule. Only these reversible fields are exposed — no resizing or plan change (billing) and no firewall toggle. simple_backup is `HHMM,daily|dailies|weeklies|monthlies` (UTC time) or `no` to disable. UpCloud: PUT /1.3/server/{uuid}.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
