Tools

This server runs locally, so its tools are listed by your MCP client once it starts.

Environment variables

NameDescription
MCP_TRANSPORT
Optional		Runs the server over stdio. The image defaults to HTTP.
PROXMOX_URL
Required		Address of any node in the cluster, with the port.
PROXMOX_API_TOKEN
Optional, secret		Recommended. The whole API token as user@realm!tokenid=secret. Leave empty to use a username and password.
PROXMOX_USERNAME
Optional		Used instead of an API token, as user@realm (e.g. mcp@pve).
PROXMOX_PASSWORD
Optional, secret		The user's password, used with the username.
PROXMOX_TLS_FINGERPRINT
Optional		Recommended for Proxmox's self-signed certificate: its SHA-256 fingerprint. An https URL needs this or PROXMOX_VERIFY_SSL.
PROXMOX_VERIFY_SSL
Optional		Leave empty when you set a fingerprint. true: the certificate is publicly trusted. false: skip the check (insecure).
PROXMOX_DEFAULT_NODE
Optional		Node used when a request doesn't name one. Not needed on a single-node install.
PROXMOX_ALLOW_WRITES
Optional		Allow changes: start and stop guests, edit configuration, create VMs, snapshots and backups.
PROXMOX_ALLOW_DELETES
Optional		Also allow deleting guests, volumes, snapshots, backups and configuration. Needs writes.
PROXMOX_ALLOW_EXEC
Optional		Also allow commands and file access inside VMs through the guest agent. Needs writes.
PROXMOX_TOOLSETS
Optional		Optional comma-separated toolsets, to expose fewer tools. Empty means all (except raw).
PROXMOX_AUDIT_LOG
Optional		Optional. stderr, or a file path inside the container, to log every change as a JSON line.
