AgentsPodium Hosting — Claude Code MCP server: setup and features
Connect Claude Code to AgentsPodium hosting to create and manage agent instances. Calls require an AgentsPodium API key.
claude mcp add --transport http agentspodium-hosting https://mcp.agentspodium.com/mcpWhat AgentsPodium Hosting does
This server gives an AI agent MCP access to AgentsPodium. It can list platforms and instances, create an instance, check its health, and pause, resume, rebuild, or delete it. Other tools handle payment options, LLM keys, peers, and webhooks; the hosting documentation is also available as an MCP resource.
Each request needs an AgentsPodium API key, which the gateway forwards to the account API. Without that key, the API returns a 401 response. The service supports MCP over HTTP and the A2A protocol. To run it locally, use npm install and npm run build before starting the process.
