kapaweb deploy MCP server

kapaweb deploy

Deploy websites, PHP apps and WordPress to kapaweb DirectAdmin hosting from a conversation with Claude, without your hosting password ever entering the chat. The plugin bundles the kapaweb connector, a local MCP server that runs on your computer, and a skill that tells Claude how to use it safely.

Requirements

• A hosting account at kapaweb () on a DirectAdmin server.
• Node.js 18.17 or newer on the computer that runs Claude. The connector has no dependencies and nothing to build.
• A Claude surface that starts local MCP servers: Claude Code, or Cowork sessions that run on your computer. Claude chat on the web does not start local servers, so use the Claude Desktop extension from there.

Use it

Ask Claude to deploy a project to kapaweb. The skill makes Claude read the public playbook (), check that the connector is current, and call connect. connect opens a sign-in page on your own computer (http://127.0.0.1, random port and token): you type your DirectAdmin address, username and password there, never in the chat. The connector exchanges the password for a restricted DirectAdmin login key, forgets the password, and keeps only the key in your computer's protected storage (Windows DPAPI, macOS Keychain, Linux secret-tool).

Tools: deploy (always makes a backup first), rollback, listfiles, readfile, writefile, dbcreate, dbimport, dbexport (streamed, any size, saved on your computer), phpversions, setphpversion, phpsettings, sslstatus, cron, subdomain, checkurl, logs, usage, account_info, playbook, connect, disconnect. Read-only tools are annotated readOnlyHint, destructive ones destructiveHint.

What it runs, stores and sends

• Runs node server/index.js from this plugin, on your computer, over stdio. On macOS it calls security (Keychain), on Linux secret-tool, on Windows PowerShell DPAPI, to store and read its own login key; it opens your browser on the local sign-in page.
• Sends requests only to: your own kapaweb DirectAdmin panel (the address you typed; it is checked against kapaweb's own server list before every connection); https://firewall.kapaweb.gr/servers.txt (that list of kapaweb server addresses); https://kapaweb.gr/deploy-with-ai/playbook.md (the playbook); https://kapaweb.gr/downloads/kapaweb-connector.version.json (a version check at most once a day, nothing is sent but the User-Agent kapaweb-connector/; KAPAWEBCONNECTORNOUPDATECHECK=1 turns it off); and, only when you ask for it with check_url, the domains of your own hosting account (plus a short fixed list of sites that kapaweb itself maintains).
• Stores on your computer: the saved connection (panel address, user name, key id; no password), the login key and generated database passwords in the protected storage, and database exports you ask for in the connector's settings folder. Nothing is sent to kapaweb for analytics, and nothing about you is collected by this plugin.
• Never shows Claude your password, the login key or generated database passwords.
