Environment variables
| Name | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
HETZNER_API_TOKENSecret | Required | Hetzner Cloud API token from the Cloud Console (project > Security > API tokens). The server can do exactly what this token allows; use a Read token if the client only needs to read. |
HETZNER_READ_ONLY | Optional | true: every tool that is not read-only, and hcloud_raw_request with a method other than GET, returns an error without sending a request. Any value other than true, 1, yes, false, 0, no or empty stops the server at startup. |
HETZNER_CONFIRM_WRITES | Optional | true: every tool that is not read-only returns a preview unless the call carries confirm "YES". Friction against mistakes, not a security boundary. |
HETZNER_DENY_TOOLS | Optional | Comma-separated tool name globs (for example hcloud_delete_*,hcloud_raw_request) that always return an error. Deny hcloud_raw_request as well, otherwise denied endpoints stay reachable through it. A pattern that matches no tool stops the server at startup. |
LOG_LEVEL | Optional | Log level of the JSON logs on stderr. |
Tools
All capabilitiesTools show up when the registry metadata or the repository README lists them. Public READMEs are read directly. A GitHub token is used only when one is already configured.
