Overview

What is Directadmin?

Directadmin is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that bridges AI assistants with the DirectAdmin web hosting control panel. It translates natural-language requests into DirectAdmin API calls, enabling automated server management through a tool-based interface.

How to use Directadmin?

Clone the repository, configure your DirectAdmin credentials in a .env file (DirectAdmin URL, username, and login key), then start the server via python main.py (SSE mode) or python server.py (simple mode). A bundled command-line client (python client.py) can be used for testing and scripting. Docker Compose deployment is also supported.

Key features of Directadmin
