What the publisher says
From the Dokploy repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
dokploy-mcp-server
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Dokploy - the open-source, self-hosted PaaS. Deploy apps, manage containers, databases, domains, and servers through AI assistants like Claude.
Why This Server?
The official Dokploy MCP generates one tool per API endpoint — at the 0.29.14 measurement below, 546 of them, exactly matching the 546 paths in Dokploy's OpenAPI spec at that version. (Dokploy v0.30.2 ships 597 paths; the figures in this section are left at their measured values rather than re-estimated.) Coverage is complete, and every one of those schemas loads into the model's context before you ask your first question.
This server hand-curates the same API into 27 tools (one per category, each taking an action enum), covering the deploy-and-operate surface most self-hosters use daily.
Context cost
Measured 2026-08-08 against @dokploy/mcp@0.29.14 and dokploy-mcp-server@1.8.2, by starting each server, calling tools/list, and counting the serialized schema bytes (divided by 4 for a rough token estimate).
Since that measurement this server grew to 27 tools tracking Dokploy v0.30.2. Measured the same way — live tools/list over stdio — it now exposes 28 tools (27 + info) for 48,452 bytes (~12.1k tokens). The official server has not been re-measured against 0.30.2, so the table above is left at the paired 0.29.14 figures rather than mixing a new number for one side with an old one for the other.
On a 200k-token context window, the official server spends more than a third of it before you ask anything. The larger median schema here is deliberate: descriptions carry the workflow knowledge that prevents failed calls, such as which service id pairs with which databaseType.
Feature Comparison
Tool counts for the official server are per category, taken from its live tools/list.
