DigitalOcean MCP Server

Safe default: deep access, cheap, and scopeable.

Per-service tool docs published in llms.txt and a simple PAT instead of IAM — far easier than AWS for the same class of work.

What an agent can do here

Launched publicly in April 2026 covering nine services with both local and remote endpoints — the most complete MCP integration from a mid-tier cloud.

Action depth
Admin

Agents can change configuration and infrastructure, not just content.

Hosting
Vendor-hosted

Connect with a URL — nothing to install.

Auth
API key
Unattended
Headless-capable

A long-lived token works, so this can run on a schedule.

Blast radius
High

A wrong call is expensive, public, or irreversible.

Permission scoping: Granular scopes

What it costs to let an agent act

FreeUnmetered

No plan gate — pay for the resources the agent provisions. Use a scoped PAT.
