Beget

You can manage Beget hosting directly from Claude Code using the MCP Beget server. It lets you handle sites, domains, MySQL, FTP accounts, Cron jobs, DNS, backups, and mail from a single, coherent interface.

How to use

With the MCP Beget server you connect via an MCP client to perform actions such as listing, creating, updating, and deleting Beget resources. Use the following workflow: start the MCP server in your environment, then issue requests to manage sites, domains, databases, FTP accounts, Cron tasks, DNS records, backups, and mail. You can combine commands to automate common tasks, for example creating a site and binding a domain in one flow, or listing all databases and then restoring from a backup.

Key concepts you will work with include: a Beget site (hosting instance), domains associated with sites, MySQL databases under a site, FTP accounts for file access, Cron tasks for scheduled work, DNS records for domain name resolution, backups for site/files and databases, and mail boxes for mailbox management.

How to install

Prerequisites: Python and pip must be available on your system.

1. Clone the MCP Beget repository.

git clone https://github.com/yasg1988/mcp-beget.git
cd mcp-beget

2. Install the package in editable mode to satisfy dependencies.

pip install -e .

3. Configure Claude Code to use the Beget MCP server. Create or edit the Claude Code settings file at ~/.claude/settings.json and add the following configuration. Replace placeholders with your actual credentials and path to the server script.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "beget": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["PATH_TO/mcp-beget/server.py"],
      "env": {
        "BEGET_LOGIN": "ваш_логин",
        "BEGET_PASSWORD": "ваш_пароль"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration and security notes

Environment variables BEGET_LOGIN and BEGET_PASSWORD are required for authentication with Beget. Do not store credentials in code. Use secure secret management where possible and avoid committing credentials to version control.

For the MCP server, you will run a local Python process that exposes the commands described in the Tools section. Ensure you have network access to Beget and that your credentials have the necessary permissions for the actions you intend to perform.

Troubleshooting and tips

If you encounter authentication errors, double-check that BEGET_LOGIN and BEGET_PASSWORD are correct and that the environment is loading these values correctly for the MCP server process.

If commands fail due to missing dependencies, re-install the package in editable mode and verify Python version compatibility with the MCP server.

Tools and endpoints you can use with Beget MCP

The MCP server exposes a set of tools to manage Beget resources. Each tool maps to a specific action or query you can perform via Claude Code.

• List and manage sites: beget_site_list, beget_site_add, beget_site_delete

• List/add/manage domains and PHP version: beget_domain_list, beget_domain_add, beget_domain_php_version

• Manage MySQL databases: beget_mysql_list, beget_mysql_add, beget_mysql_delete

• Manage FTP accounts and Cron jobs: beget_ftp_list, beget_ftp_add, beget_cron_list, beget_cron_add

• DNS operations: beget_dns_get, beget_dns_set

• Backups and restores: beget_backup_files_list, beget_backup_mysql_list

• Mail management: beget_mail_list, beget_mail_create

• Statistics and account info: beget_stat_load, beget_account_info

Notes on installation flow

The installation flow ends with running the MCP server using the Python command and the path to the server script. The final start command is python PATH_TO/mcp-beget/server.py executed in your environment.
