ExaltByte Server

Deploy apps, manage databases, and operate your entire cloud infrastructure from AI assistants like Claude Code — no dashboard required.

What is this?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and other MCP-compatible AI assistants directly to the ExaltByte platform API. You describe what you want in natural language, and the AI handles the rest.

You: "Deploy my Next.js app from github bimapanduw/my-app with a Postgres database"

Claude: → deploys the app via deploy_app
        → creates a PostgreSQL database via create_database
        → sets DATABASE_URL on the app via update_env_vars
        → returns the live URL

Quick Start

1. Get your API key

Go to Settings > API Keys in the ExaltByte Dashboard and create a new key. Copy the key and your Organization ID.

2. Add to Claude Code

Add to your ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exaltbyte": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@exaltbyte/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "EXALTBYTE_API_KEY": "dbaas_your_api_key_here",
        "EXALTBYTE_ORG_ID": "your-org-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Start using it

claude "deploy my app from github owner/repo"
claude "create a postgres 16 database called mydb"
claude "what's my current billing usage?"

Setup for other clients

{
  "mcpServers": {

      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@exaltbyte/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "EXALTBYTE_API_KEY": "dbaas_your_api_key_here",
        "EXALTBYTE_ORG_ID": "your-org-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

      "env": {
        "EXALTBYTE_API_KEY": "dbaas_your_api_key_here",
        "EXALTBYTE_ORG_ID": "your-org-id"
      }

Example Prompts

Deploy a full-stack app:

"Deploy my Next.js app from github myuser/my-app on the main branch, create a postgres 16 database called myapp-db, and set the DATABASE_URL env var on the app"

Check costs:

"What's my current usage and how many days of balance do I have left?"

Scale up:

"Resize my production database to large and add another node to my web app"

Manage backups:

"Enable daily backups on my postgres database and trigger one now"

Debug issues:

"Show me the logs for my api-server app and check the database health"

Deploy a Redis cache:

"Deploy a Redis 7 service called my-cache on a micro instance"

How it works

The MCP server runs as a local stdio process. When an MCP-compatible AI assistant (like Claude) needs to interact with ExaltByte, it calls the appropriate tool with structured parameters. The server translates these into ExaltByte API calls and returns formatted results.

User prompt → Claude → MCP tool call → ExaltByte API → Response → Claude → User

All communication happens over stdin/stdout using the Model Context Protocol. No HTTP server is needed.
