- Repository: https://github.com/alainsvrd/borealhost-mcp
- Website: https://borealhost.ai

## Install
- Command: `uvx borealhost-mcp`
- Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- Auth: Not captured

## Setup notes
- Package: Pypi borealhost-mcp v0.2.0
- Environment variable: BOREALHOST_API_KEY (secret)
- Remote endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/

## Tools
- register - Register a new agent account and get an API key.

No authentication needed. The returned API key grants read+write access
to all BorealHost API endpoints. Store it securely — it cannot be
retrieved again.

The key is automatically activated for this session — all subsequent
tool calls will use it. No extra configuration needed.

If no email is provided, a synthetic agent identity is created
(agent-{uuid}@api.borealhost.ai). If an email is provided, it links
to an existing or new human account.

Args:
    name: Human-readable name for this API key (default: "Agent Key")
    email: Optional email to link to a human account

Returns:
    {"api_key": "bh_...", "key_id": "uuid", "prefix": "bh_...",
     "scopes": ["read", "write"], "account_id": "uuid",
     "message": "Store this API key securely..."}

Errors:
    RATE_LIMITED: Max 5 registrations per IP per hour
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Invalid email format
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- set_api_key - Set your BorealHost API key for this session.

Call this if you already have an API key (from a previous registration,
checkout completion, or the BorealHost panel). All subsequent tool calls
will use this key for authentication.

No need to call this after register() — the key is set automatically.

Args:
    api_key: Your BorealHost API key (format: bh_<48 hex chars>)

Returns:
    {"success": true, "message": "API key set for this session",
     "key_prefix": "bh_..."}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- whoami - Check the current API key's account info, scopes, and site count.

Requires: BOREALHOST_API_KEY env var (read scope).

Returns:
    {"user": {"id": "uuid", "email": "...", "date_joined": "iso8601"},
     "api_key": {"id": "uuid", "name": "...", "prefix": "bh_...",
                 "scopes": ["read", "write"], "created_at": "iso8601"},
     "account": {"sites": 2, "active_subscriptions": 1}}

Errors:
    UNAUTHORIZED: Missing or invalid API key
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- request_api_key - Request an API key for a site you are running on (challenge-response).

This starts a two-step verification flow:
1. A claim token is written to your container at ~/.borealhost/.claim_token
   (mode 600, owner admin — only readable if you're on the container)
2. Read that file and call claim_api_key(token) within 1 hour

This proves you have access to the container without storing any secrets
on disk permanently. The claim token is single-use and ephemeral.

No authentication needed — the proof is reading the file from the container.

Args:
    site_slug: The site identifier (your BorealHost site slug)

Returns:
    {"status": "pending", "site_slug": "my-site",
     "expires_in_seconds": 3600, "claim_path": "~/.borealhost/.claim_token",
     "instructions": "Read the claim token and call claim_api_key()..."}

Errors:
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Unknown site slug or no active subscription
    RATE_LIMITED: Too many pending claim tokens
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- claim_api_key - Claim an API key using a claim token from the container.

After calling request_api_key(), read the claim token from
~/.borealhost/.claim_token on your container and pass it here.

The token is single-use — once claimed, it cannot be used again.
The API key is automatically activated for this MCP session.

Args:
    claim_token: The claim token string read from the container file

Returns:
    {"api_key": "bh_...", "key_prefix": "bh_...",
     "site_slug": "my-site", "scopes": ["read", "write"],
     "message": "API key created and activated..."}

Errors:
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Invalid, expired, or already-claimed token
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_plans - List available hosting plans with pricing and resources.

No authentication needed.

Args:
    track: Filter by plan track. Valid values: "single_site", "agency".
           Leave empty to list all tracks.
    include_deprecated: Include deprecated plans (default: false)

      "ai_agents": [], "free_domain_annual": false}}, ...]
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- create_checkout - Start a new checkout session to purchase a hosting plan.

No authentication needed. After creating, call update_checkout to set
buyer info, then complete_checkout to pay.

Args:
    sku: Plan SKU in format bh_{plan_slug}_{monthly|annual}.
         Examples: "bh_site_starter_monthly", "bh_site_pro_annual",
         "bh_site_managed_monthly", "bh_site_business_annual".
         Call list_plans() to discover all available plan slugs.

Returns:
    {"id": "uuid", "sku": "bh_site_starter_monthly",
     "plan_slug": "site_starter", "billing_period": "monthly",
     "status": "not_ready", "buyer_email": "", "requested_slug": "",

    RATE_LIMITED: Max 10 checkouts per IP per hour
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/

The checkout must be in "not_ready" status. Setting requested_slug
transitions status to "ready" (required before completing).

Args:
    checkout_id: Checkout session ID from create_checkout
    buyer_email: Optional email — if omitted, a synthetic agent identity
                 (agent-{uuid}@api.borealhost.ai) is created at completion
    requested_slug: Desired site identifier. Must be 3-50 chars, lowercase
                    alphanumeric + hyphens, cannot start/end with hyphen.

 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- complete_checkout - Complete checkout with payment and start site provisioning.

The checkout must be in "ready" status.

Two payment methods:
- "stripe_checkout" (default): Returns a short, chat-safe payment URL.
  **Present `payment_url` to the human — NOT `stripe_checkout_url`.**
  The raw Stripe URL has a required `#fragment` that chat UIs routinely
  strip when rendering markdown links, which causes Stripe to show
  "page not found". `payment_url` is a short BorealHost redirect that
  preserves the fragment via HTTP 302. Then poll get_checkout_status()
  until status becomes "completed". The API key appears in the first
  poll after payment (shown once, then cleared).
- "stripe_payment_method": Charges a Stripe PaymentMethod directly.
  Requires payment_method_id. On success, returns the API key immediately.

Args:
    checkout_id: Checkout session ID
    payment_method: "stripe_checkout" or "stripe_payment_method"
    payment_method_id: Stripe PaymentMethod ID (pm_...). Required only

     "message": "Present payment_url to the human..."}

Returns (stripe_payment_method):
    {"id": "uuid", "status": "completed", "api_key": "bh_...",
     "api_key_message": "Store this API key securely...",
     "subscription_id": "uuid", "provisioning_job_id": "uuid"}

Errors:
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Missing payment_method_id for stripe_payment_method
    FORBIDDEN: Checkout not in "ready" status
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/

        an existing record points at a different server
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- link_domain - Link a domain to a hosted site.

Attaches the domain to the specified site and triggers automatic
DNS configuration and SSL provisioning.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    domain_name: Full domain name (e.g. "example.com")
    site_slug: Site identifier to link the domain to

Returns:
    {"success": true, "domain": "example.com",
     "linked_site": "my-site", "message": "Domain linked"}

Errors:
    NOT_FOUND: Domain or site not found
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Domain already linked to another site
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- set_domain_usage - Set what a registered domain points at — a site, someone else's
nameservers, our DNS with no site, or a redirect to another URL.

Use this to park a domain, hand it to an external host, or forward it.
Switching modes tears down the previous one (a forwarded domain that
becomes a site domain loses its redirect, and vice versa).

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    domain_name: Full domain name (e.g. "example.com")
    usage_mode: "site" — link it to a hosted site (needs site_slug);
                "external_ns" — delegate to the customer's own nameservers
                (needs nameservers), we stop managing its DNS entirely;
                "dns_only" — our nameservers, records edited by hand,
                nothing served;
                "forward" — our nameservers plus an HTTP redirect to
                forward_url (needs forward_url)
    site_slug: Site to link to, when usage_mode="site"
    nameservers: Ordered list of 2–6 nameserver hostnames, when
                 usage_mode="external_ns"
    forward_url: Redirect target, when usage_mode="forward"
    forward_type: "301" permanent (default) or "302" temporary
    forward_include_path: Append the visitor's path to the target (default: True)

Returns:
    {"domain": "example.com", "usage_mode": "forward",
     "forward_url": "https://example.org",
     "configuration": {"dns": true, "nginx": true, "ssl": false, ...}}

    For forward mode, ssl=false usually just means DNS has not propagated
    yet — call this tool again a few minutes later to finish the cert.

Errors:
    NOT_FOUND: Domain or site not found
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Bad nameserver hostname, bad redirect URL,
                      missing site_slug, or a self-referential redirect
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/

    NOT_FOUND: Domain not found
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- delete_domain_dns - Delete a DNS record from a domain.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    domain_name: Full domain name (e.g. "example.com")
    record_id: ID of the DNS record to delete (from list_domain_dns)

 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_modules - List AI modules and their enabled/disabled state for a site.

Also returns the list of modules available for the site's plan.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Args:
    slug: Site identifier

Returns:
    {"modules": {"chatbot": true, "seo": false, "translation": false,

    NOT_FOUND: Unknown slug or module not in plan
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Invalid module name
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_compute_types - List on-demand compute instance types with hourly CAD prices.

On-demand instances are real cloud VMs in Canada (Montreal region),
billed per minute (1-hour minimum) post-paid onto your existing
BorealHost subscription. Use them for short-lived extra compute
(builds, batch jobs, experiments).

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    {"region": "ca-central-1", "currency": "CAD",
     "billing": "hourly, post-paid; billing runs until the instance is terminated",
     "types": [{"type": "lsw.c3.large", "vcpu": 2, "memory_gb": 3,
                "hourly_price_cad": 0.08, "min_disk_gb": 5,
                "storage_types": ["CENTRAL", "LOCAL"]}, ...]}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_compute_images - List OS images available for on-demand compute instances.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    {"images": [{"id": "UBUNTU_24_04_64BIT", "name": "Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (x86_64)",
                 "family": "linux", "flavour": "ubuntu"}, ...]}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- launch_compute_instance - Launch an on-demand hourly compute instance (Canada, CAD).

Billing starts at launch (per minute, 1-hour minimum) and runs until
terminate_compute_instance — stopping does NOT stop the charge. Every
instance has a hard TTL
(max_lifetime_hours, default 72h) after which it is auto-terminated.
Usage is metered onto your existing BorealHost subscription; an active
subscription is required.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    instance_type: From list_compute_types, e.g. "lsw.c3.large"
    image_id: From list_compute_images, e.g. "UBUNTU_24_04_64BIT"
    name: Optional label for the instance
    ssh_public_key: Public key installed as root access. Mutually exclusive
                    with user_data (provider limitation) — provide exactly one.
    user_data: cloud-init config (plain text #cloud-config). Use
               ssh_authorized_keys inside it if you need a key AND user data.
    root_disk_size: GB (default max(min_disk, 25))
    storage_type: "CENTRAL" (redundant) or "LOCAL" (faster I/O)
    max_lifetime_hours: Hard TTL, 1-336 (default 72)

Returns:
    Instance dict: {"id", "state": "launching", "public_ip", "instance_type",
    "hourly_price_cad", "terminate_after", ...}. Poll get_compute_instance
    until state is "running" and public_ip is set (~1-3 min).

Errors:
    PAYMENT_REQUIRED: No active subscription to bill against
    LIMIT_EXCEEDED: Concurrent instance cap reached
    SPEND_CAP_EXCEEDED: Monthly compute spend cap reached
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Bad type/image/disk/TTL, or both/neither of
                      ssh_public_key and user_data
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_compute_instances - List your on-demand compute instances with month-to-date spend.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    {"instances": [...], "month_to_date_spend_cad": 12.34,
     "monthly_spend_cap_cad": 500.0}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- get_compute_instance - Get live details for a compute instance (state, public IP, accrued cost).

State is synced from the cloud provider on each call. SSH as root once
state is "running" and public_ip is set.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Args:
    instance_id: Instance UUID from launch_compute_instance / list

Returns:
    {"id", "state", "public_ip", "hourly_price_cad", "accrued_cad",
     "terminate_after", ...}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- start_compute_instance - Start a stopped compute instance.

Requires: API key with write scope.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- stop_compute_instance - Stop a compute instance. WARNING: hourly billing continues while stopped.

Use terminate_compute_instance to stop the charges permanently.

Requires: API key with write scope.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- reboot_compute_instance - Reboot a running compute instance.

Requires: API key with write scope.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- terminate_compute_instance - Permanently terminate a compute instance — this stops hourly billing.

The instance and its disk are destroyed and cannot be recovered. Copy any
results off the instance before terminating.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Returns:
    Final instance dict with state "terminated" and total accrued_cad.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- list_compute_volumes - List your compute volumes — machines that survive instance termination.

A volume is a whole machine (packages, drivers, services, users, data)
stored in Canada. Detaching destroys the instance but keeps the machine;
attaching restores it onto a fresh instance, optionally of a DIFFERENT
type. That is how you move a workload from a small CPU box to a big GPU
box without rebuilding it.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    {"volumes": [{"id", "name", "state", "instance_type", "stored_gb",
    "has_snapshot", "instance": {...} or null}, ...],
    "price_cad_per_gb_month": 0.03}

    state is one of: creating, attached, detaching, detached, attaching,
    error. Only "attached" has a running instance you can log into.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- get_compute_volume - Get a volume's live state, its instance, and its monthly storage cost.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    Volume dict plus "monthly_storage_cad". After attach, poll this until
    instance.state is "running" — then allow a few more minutes for the
    restore to finish and the machine to reboot into itself.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- create_compute_volume - Create a persistent machine and boot its first instance.

Start here, then set the machine up however you like (install packages,
drivers, models). Everything you do becomes part of the volume the first
time you detach or snapshot it.

While attached you pay hourly compute; while detached you pay only for
stored bytes (CA$0.03/GB/month). Stopping an instance does NOT save money
on this provider — detaching is what stops the compute charge.

Requires: API key with write scope, and an active subscription.

Args:
    name: Label for the volume, e.g. "trainer"
    image_id: From list_compute_images, e.g. "UBUNTU_24_04_64BIT".
              Cannot change later — restores must land on the same OS.
    instance_type: From list_compute_types, e.g. "lsw.g6.xlarge".
                   CAN change on every later attach.
    ssh_public_key: Required. Volume instances always boot via cloud-init,
                    so this is the only way in.
    root_disk_size: GB. Defaults to the type's minimum (or 25).

Returns:
    Volume dict with state "attached". Poll get_compute_volume until
    instance.state is "running" (~1-3 min).

Errors:
    PAYMENT_REQUIRED: No active subscription
    LIMIT_EXCEEDED: Volume cap reached
    NOT_AVAILABLE: Volumes not enabled on this deployment
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- adopt_compute_instance - Turn an instance you are ALREADY running into a persistent volume.

Use this when you launched something, set it up, and then decided you want
to keep it. Nothing reboots and no data moves — the machine you have
becomes the volume, and you can detach it afterwards to stop paying for
compute while keeping the machine. Beats creating a volume and rebuilding.

Only instances launched with an ssh_public_key qualify. One launched with
your own user_data carries only your key, and a key cannot be added to a
machine we cannot already log into — check "managed_ssh" on the instance.

Requires: API key with write scope, and an active subscription.

Args:
    instance_id: A running lsw.* instance you own
    name: Label for the volume (defaults to the instance name)

Returns:
    Volume dict with state "attached", wrapping that same instance. No
    snapshot exists yet — the first one is taken on detach or snapshot.

Errors:
    CONFLICT: Not running, already a volume, BorealHost Metal, or launched
              without BorealHost management access
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- detach_compute_volume - Queue: snapshot the machine, verify it, then destroy the instance.

This is how you stop paying for compute while keeping your work.

ASYNCHRONOUS. Returns immediately with state "detaching" — it does NOT mean
the detach finished. The capture takes minutes (roughly 1 min per 10 GB plus
verification), so it runs in a background worker. Poll get_compute_volume
until state is "detached" (done) or "error" (failed).

Safety: if the snapshot or its verification fails, the instance is left
RUNNING and the volume goes to state "error". Your data is never traded
for a tidy state machine. Retry the detach once you have fixed the cause.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Returns:
    Volume dict with state "detaching". Poll for the outcome.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- attach_compute_volume - Restore a detached volume onto a fresh instance — optionally a new type.

Pass a different instance_type to move the same machine to different
hardware: this is the closest thing to changing instance type that the
provider allows, since it has no resize API at all.

The restore runs at first boot and the machine reboots into itself, so the
instance answers SSH BEFORE it is ready. Poll get_compute_volume and give
it a few minutes (measured: ~6 min for a 10 GB GPU machine end to end).

The machine keeps its SSH host keys, so your client will not warn about a
changed host identity.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    volume_id: A volume in state "detached"
    ssh_public_key: Required — installed via cloud-init at boot
    instance_type: Defaults to the type it last ran on
    root_disk_size: GB. May grow, never shrink below the volume's size.

Returns:
    Volume dict with state "attached" and a new instance.

Errors:
    CONFLICT: Volume is not detached, or has no snapshot yet
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- snapshot_compute_volume - Queue a checkpoint snapshot without detaching — before a risky change.

ASYNCHRONOUS. Returns immediately with state "snapshotting"; poll
get_compute_volume until it is back to "attached" (done) or "error".

Named systemd units are stopped for the capture so the snapshot is
application-consistent (a live database directory copied mid-write is not
reliably restorable). The worker restarts nothing — reboot or start them
yourself afterwards.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    volume_id: A volume in state "attached"
    quiesce_units: Services to stop during capture,
                   e.g. ["ollama.service", "postgresql.service"]

Returns:
    Volume dict with state "snapshotting". Poll for the outcome.
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- delete_compute_volume - Permanently delete a volume and everything stored in it.

Irreversible: the instance is released AND the stored data is purged from
object storage, so billing genuinely stops. Refuses while an instance is
live unless force=True, so a running machine's only copy cannot be
destroyed by reflex.

Requires: API key with admin scope.

Returns:
    {"id", "state": "deleted"}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- container_action - Start, stop, or restart a site's container.

Only for plans with a dedicated container (VPS / split-VPS / dedicated).
Shared-hosting sites share a container and cannot restart it. The
response reports the observed container state after the action.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Args:
    slug: Site identifier
    action: "start", "stop", or "restart"

Returns:
    {"site", "action", "status": "running|stopped", "observed": true}

Errors:
    VALIDATION_ERROR: Shared-hosting plan or unknown action
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/

Args:
    subject: Short summary (max 200 chars)
    message: Full description (max 20000 chars)
    category: Optional (e.g. "technical", "billing")

- get_backup_retention - Get the backup retention policy for a VPS site.

Requires: API key with read scope.

Returns:
    {"site", "retention": {"keep_daily", "keep_weekly", "keep_monthly"}}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- set_backup_retention - Set the backup retention policy for a VPS site.

Storage is billed on real stored bytes, so deeper history costs the
customer, not the platform. Values are clamped to platform bounds; the
response reports what was actually stored. Pass -1 to leave a knob
unchanged, or reset=true to restore defaults.

Requires: API key with write scope.

Returns:
    {"site", "retention": {...}}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- delete_backup - Permanently delete a single backup (metadata + stored snapshot).

Irreversible. Requires: API key with admin scope.

Returns:

"grant" / "revoke" (user+database, optional privileges e.g. "ALL"
or "SELECT,INSERT").

Requires: API key with write scope.

Returns:
    {"engine", "action", "result": {...}}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- transfer_out_domain - Prepare a domain to transfer to another registrar.

    {"domain", "unlocked": true, "auth_code_emailed": true, "message"}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- enable_wildcard - Route *.domain (every subdomain) to the domain's linked site.

Creates a wildcard DNS record and issues a wildcard certificate via
ACME DNS-01. SLOW — DNS propagation is part of the challenge, expect
2-5 minutes. Requires the domain to be linked to a site and its DNS
hosted by BorealHost.

Returns:
    {"domain", "wildcard", "site", "ssl_active", "not_after"}
 Endpoint: https://borealhost.ai/mcp/
- upload_ssl_cert - Install your own SSL certificate for a site's domain.

The certificate must be a PEM fullchain (leaf + intermediates) and the
key unencrypted PEM. Validated (parse, key match, domain coverage,
expiry) before nginx is touched; nginx config is tested before reload.
