AskYourStack MCP server

AskYourStack MCP server

Let Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Claude Code manage your own Linux servers, with approvals for anything risky.

AskYourStack is a hosted, remote MCP server. Install a small agent on your server with one line, add your private AskYourStack MCP address to your AI client, and ask in plain words: set up a raw VPS, install Magento or WordPress, fix a 500 error, take backups, clean up malware, harden the server or move a site to a new one. For SEO it reads Google Search Console, Google Analytics 4, Core Web Vitals, on-page audits and your structured data next to what Googlebot really fetches in your server logs, and fixes the causes on the server.

This repository holds the listing and documentation for the AskYourStack MCP server. The service itself is hosted at askyourstack.com; there is nothing to build or run locally.

How it works

1. Connect your server. Sign up free at askyourstack.com, name your server and paste the one-line install as the Linux user who owns your sites (the agent then manages only that user's sites and files), or as root when it should run the whole server. The agent dials out to askyourstack.com over HTTPS: it opens no port, and no SSH key or password is stored anywhere.
2. Add AskYourStack to your AI client with your private MCP address from the dashboard (see below).
3. Ask. Your AI looks at the server first, explains its plan, and runs the work through AskYourStack's tools. Anything destructive waits for your approval.

Connect your AI client

Two ways in:

• Sign in (OAuth): clients that support sign-in for remote MCP servers connect to https://askyourstack.com/mcp. You sign in to AskYourStack, see which app is asking and allow it. Each app gets its own access, which you can end under Security in the dashboard.
• Private address: https://askyourstack.com/mcp/YOUR-ADDRESS, from the dashboard, for clients without sign-in. Keep it private, and make a new one in the dashboard if it leaks. The examples below use it.

The tool and playbook catalogue is public at https://askyourstack.com/mcp/catalog.

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop): Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector. Name it AskYourStack, paste the address and leave the OAuth fields empty. Guide

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http sudowhizzy https://askyourstack.com/mcp/YOUR-ADDRESS

Guide

Cursor (mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sudowhizzy": { "url": "https://askyourstack.com/mcp/YOUR-ADDRESS" }
  }
}

Guide

ChatGPT: Settings, Connectors, turn on developer mode, then add a custom connector with your address and no authentication. Guide

Any other client that supports remote MCP servers over streamable HTTP works the same way.
