Nandi Proxmox Mcp
Let your coding agent manage Proxmox VE VMs, LXC containers, and nodes from stdio MCP instead of clicking through the web UI.
Overview
nandi-proxmox-mcp is an MCP server for the Operate phase that manages Proxmox VE VMs, LXC containers, and nodes from your agent over stdio.
What is this MCP server?
- stdio npm package nandi-proxmox-mcp at version 0.2.4
- Manages Proxmox VE: virtual machines, LXC containers, and cluster nodes
- Requires NANDI_PROXMOX_CONFIG pointing to a local JSON config from setup
- GitHub source: NANDI-Services/proxmox-mcp
- Fits homelab and indie operators who self-host instead of pure PaaS
- Package version 0.2.4
- Transport: stdio
- Required env: NANDI_PROXMOX_CONFIG (filepath)
What problem does it solve?
Self-hosted Proxmox work breaks your flow when every VM or container change means leaving the IDE for the web console.
Who is it for?
Solo builders running production or staging on Proxmox VE who want agent-assisted infra checks and controlled changes.
Skip if: Builders on serverless-only hosts with no Proxmox cluster, or anyone uncomfortable giving an agent API access to hypervisor controls.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent can list and manage Proxmox resources using a local config file while you stay in the same coding session.
- Agent-callable Proxmox operations for VMs, LXC, and nodes per server tools
- Repeatable infra inspection and change workflows from the IDE

How it compares
Proxmox hypervisor MCP bridge, not a generic cloud provisioning skill for AWS or Fly.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is nandi-proxmox-mcp for?
Developers and indie operators who self-host on Proxmox VE and use MCP-capable agents to inspect or manage VMs, LXC, and nodes.
When should I use nandi-proxmox-mcp?
Use it during operate and infra work when you troubleshoot hosts, audit running guests, or apply small changes you are willing to run through agent tools.
How do I add nandi-proxmox-mcp to my agent?
Install the npm package nandi-proxmox-mcp, run the project setup to produce a Proxmox config JSON, set NANDI_PROXMOX_CONFIG to that file path, and register the server as a stdio MCP entry in Claude Code or Cursor.
