README

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Latitude.sh API

Overview

The Latitude.sh MCP Server exposes your Latitude.sh REST API as an AI-ready interface, allowing developer tools and assistants to list, create, and manage your infrastructure resources programmatically.

Use natural language to:

🔎 List and inspect servers, projects, and SSH keys
⚙️ Create or delete bare-metal instances
📡 Manage networking and automation directly from chat-based IDEs

Installation

🪶 Prerequisite: You’ll need a Latitude.sh API Key.

DXT (Desktop Extension)

Install the MCP server as a Desktop Extension using the pre-built mcp-server.dxt file:

Simply drag and drop the mcp-server.dxt file onto Claude Desktop to install the extension.

The DXT package includes the MCP server and all necessary configuration. Once installed, the server will be available without additional setup.

[!NOTE] DXT (Desktop Extensions) provide a streamlined way to package and distribute MCP servers. Learn more about Desktop Extensions.

Cursor

Open Cursor Settings
Select Tools and Integrations
Select New MCP Server
Paste the following JSON into the MCP Server Configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "latitudesh",
        "start",
        "--bearer",

    }
  }
}

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

Claude Code CLI

claude mcp add latitudesh npx latitudesh start -- --bearer YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

Codex

Add the MCP server with the Codex CLI:

codex mcp add Latitudesh -- npx latitudesh start --bearer YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN

Or add it directly to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.Latitudesh]
command = "npx"
args = ["latitudesh", "start", "--bearer", "YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN"]

Verify it is configured:

codex mcp list

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop doesn't yet support SSE/remote MCP servers.

You need to do the following

Open claude Desktop
Open left hand side pane, then click on your Username
Go to Settings
Go to Developer tab (on the left hand side)
Click on Edit Config Paste the following config in the configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "latitudesh",
        "start",
        "--bearer",
        "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

VS Code

Refer to Official VS Code documentation for latest information

Open Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P)
Search and open MCP: Open User Configuration to open the mcp.json file
Add the configuration:

{
  "servers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "latitudesh",
        "start",
        "--bearer",
        "YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Save the file and restart VS Code
Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Alt+I / Ctrl+Alt+I) and enable Agent mode
The Latitudesh tools will be available automatically

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

Tips for using with VS Code:

Be explicit in your prompts: "List my servers from Latitude.sh" instead of just "list servers"
Mention "Latitude.sh" or "MCP" to avoid Copilot searching local files

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Desktop
Click on your Username in the left sidebar
Go to Settings → Developer tab
Click Edit Config
Add the configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "latitudesh",
        "start",
        "--bearer",
        "YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Save and restart Claude Desktop

Note: Replace YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN with your actual Latitude.sh bearer token.

Standalone CLI Usage

To start the MCP server directly:

npx latitudesh start --bearer YOUR_LATITUDE_API_TOKEN

Optional flags:

--server-index <0|1> - Select server (0=https://api.latitude.sh, 1=http://api.latitude.sh) [default: 0]
--latitude-api-key <key> - API key for URL templating
--log-level <level> - Log level (debug|warning|info|error) [default: info]

For a full list of server arguments:

npx latitudesh --help

Development

Run locally without a published npm package:

Clone this repository
Run npm install
Run npm run build
Run node ./bin/mcp-server.js start --bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>

To use this local version with MCP Clients, you'll need to add the following config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/absolute/path/to/latitudesh-mcp/bin/mcp-server.js",
        "start",
        "--bearer",
        "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Debug locally

Use the official MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node ./bin/mcp-server.js start --bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>

This opens an interactive UI at http://localhost:6274.

Progressive Discovery

MCP servers with many tools can bloat LLM context windows, leading to increased token usage and tool confusion. Dynamic mode solves this by exposing only a small set of meta-tools that let agents progressively discover and invoke tools on demand.

To enable dynamic mode, pass the --mode dynamic flag when starting your server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Latitudesh": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["latitudesh", "start", "--mode", "dynamic"],
      // ... other server arguments
    }
  }
}

In dynamic mode, the server registers only the following meta-tools instead of every individual tool:

list_tools: Lists all available tools with their names and descriptions.
describe_tool_input: Returns the input schema for one or more tools by name.
execute_tool: Executes a tool by name with its arguments.

This approach significantly reduces the number of tokens sent to the LLM on each request, which is especially useful for servers with a large number of tools.
