{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stumason-coolify-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@masonator/coolify-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package @masonator/coolify-mcp - the @masonator scope differs from the repo owner (stumason); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.StuMason is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

v3.5.1 · 2026-09-16

v3.4.0 · 2026-09-11

Added · Destructive confirmation works on protocol revision 2026-07-28 (#341). That revision removed server-initiated requests mid-call, so the elicitation prompt this server has always used simply stopped working…
