Hetzner MCP Server

Manage Hetzner Cloud servers, networks, storage, DNS and load balancers from an MCP client. Requires Node.js 22.12 or newer.

Setup

Create an API token in the Hetzner Cloud Console. Use a read-only token for inspection; write operations can create billable resources.

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add --env HETZNER_API_TOKEN=your-token --transport stdio \
  hetzner -- npx -y @lazyants/hetzner-mcp-server

For Claude Desktop and clients that accept mcpServers JSON:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hetzner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@lazyants/hetzner-mcp-server"],
      "env": { "HETZNER_API_TOKEN": "your-token" }
    }
  }
}

For a separate Storage Box token, also set HETZNER_STORAGE_API_TOKEN. Otherwise, Storage Box tools use HETZNER_API_TOKEN.

Smaller servers

The default command exposes all tools. To load only one resource group, run a split command:

npx -y -p @lazyants/hetzner-mcp-server hetzner-mcp-networking

In a client configuration, replace args with:

["-y", "-p", "@lazyants/hetzner-mcp-server", "hetzner-mcp-networking"]

Other groups: servers, load-balancers, ips, storage, storage-boxes, config and dns. Use the same hetzner-mcp- command prefix and token configuration.

Every server exposes the API reference at reference://hetzner/api. See CHANGELOG.md for release changes.
