SHIPPED · v1.28.0

AI MCP for Coding Agents - Manage your VPS with our favorite AI Agents

New

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Let AI tools manage your servers — turn on AI Access and connect your coding agent to Server Compass through a local, token-secured connection

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Connect popular coding tools faster — copy ready-made setup instructions for Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code

  • Choose the full Server Compass tool name or a shorter alias before copying setup instructions

  • Copy matching uninstall instructions when you want to remove access from a tool

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Create scoped access tokens — give each AI tool only the permissions it needs, from read-only visibility to app operations, deployments, or destructive actions

  • Restrict tokens to specific servers when you want an agent to work on staging without touching production

  • Revoke tokens any time from the AI Access screen

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Ask agents to inspect and manage apps — AI tools can list servers, view live health, read app logs, search templates, check deployments, manage domains, update environment values, and operate Docker apps through Server Compass

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Keep credentials inside Server Compass — SSH keys, passwords, and saved secrets stay in the encrypted local vault; AI tools get actions and results, not raw credentials

  • AI Access for Coding Agents — Confirm destructive requests — dangerous actions like deleting apps, deleting secret collections, or running raw server commands ask for explicit approval before they run

  • App Templates — Deploy more templates directly — Neon Local, Pastefy, Networking Toolbox, GitIngest, Next.js, Django, FastAPI, and Flask are now available from the template picker

  • App Templates — Launch framework starter apps — Next.js, Django, FastAPI, and Flask templates can now deploy a small starter app when no source code has been uploaded yet

  • App Templates — Install fuller PostHog and Mailcow stacks — both templates now prepare their official-style self-hosted setup flows with the values they need before first launch

Improved

  • AI Access Setup — See every available AI tool action — the AI Access screen now includes a searchable tool list grouped by permission level

  • AI Access Setup — Review agent activity — recent AI calls show status, timing, client name, server name, and any error so you can see what your tools have been doing

  • AI Access Setup — Auto-fill saved token commands — Server Compass tries to recover saved token secrets from the local keychain so setup snippets are ready to copy when possible

  • AI Access Setup — Prevent placeholder token mistakes — setup copying is disabled when a real token secret is not available, so you do not paste a non-working placeholder into your AI tool

  • AI Access Setup — Stay connected in the background — when AI Access is enabled, Server Compass keeps running in the menu bar or system tray so connected AI tools do not lose access

  • Template Reliability — Template setup runs at the right time — complex templates now prepare their required files after setup values are written, reducing failed first launches

  • Template Reliability — Template preparation fails clearly — when a required setup step cannot complete, deployment stops with a clear error instead of continuing into a broken app

  • Template Reliability — Rancher uses a steadier default image — new Rancher installs use the stable release line and explain that the first dashboard launch can take a few minutes

  • Template Reliability — Neon Local accepts branch settings — the template now supports branch and parent-branch values for more realistic local Neon workflows

Fixed

  • AI Access — Fixed AI Access shutting down when the window closed — Server Compass now stays available in the background while AI Access is enabled

  • AI Access — Fixed dangerous AI actions running without a final check — destructive requests now require a confirmation prompt before they proceed

  • App Template Reliability — Fixed Pastefy, Networking Toolbox, and GitIngest being hidden because their old images could not be pulled — these templates now use working images and are selectable again

  • App Template Reliability — Fixed framework templates needing uploaded source before they could be verified — direct template deploys now include starter files for Next.js, Django, FastAPI, and Flask

  • App Template Reliability — Fixed PostHog installs starting with an incomplete stack — the template now prepares the current hobby setup flow before launching

  • App Template Reliability — Fixed Mailcow installs missing the generated mail server setup — the template now prepares the generated stack, mail hostname values, web ports, and supporting secrets

  • App Template Reliability — Fixed complex templates continuing after setup failed — failed preparation now stops the deployment so you can fix the real issue instead of debugging a half-created app
