-**MCP server for managing Caddy web servers.** 16 tools for config management, reverse proxy setup, route operations, TLS, and server monitoring — all via Caddy's admin API.
+**Manage Caddy web servers from Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client.** 17 tools + 4 resources covering every endpoint of Caddy's admin API — config, routes, reverse proxies, TLS, PKI, metrics.
 
 Built and maintained by [Yaw Labs](https://yaw.sh).
 
-## Quick start
+[![Add to mcp.hosting](https://mcp.hosting/install-button.svg)](https://mcp.hosting/install?name=Caddy&command=npx&args=-y%2C%40yawlabs%2Fcaddy-mcp&env=CADDY_ADMIN_URL%2CCADDY_API_TOKEN&description=Manage%20Caddy%20web%20servers%20-%20config%2C%20routes%2C%20TLS%2C%20PKI&source=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FYawLabs%2Fcaddy-mcp)
 
-```bash
-npx @yawlabs/caddy-mcp
-```
+One click adds this to your [mcp.hosting](https://mcp.hosting) account so it syncs to every MCP client you use. Or install manually below.
 
-Or install globally:
+## Why this one?
 
-```bash
-npm install -g @yawlabs/caddy-mcp
-caddy-mcp
-```
+Other Caddy MCP servers wrap half the admin API and silently swallow errors. This one doesn't.
 
-## MCP client configuration
+- **Complete admin API coverage** — every documented endpoint: `/load`, `/config/*`, `/id/*`, `/stop`, `/adapt`, `/pki/ca/*`, `/reverse_proxy/upstreams`, `/metrics`. No placeholder tools that 404.
+- **Safe concurrent writes** — uses ETags (`If-Match`) so your changes never silently overwrite someone else's. Surfaces `HTTP 412 Precondition Failed` as a clear message, not a cryptic error.
+- **Safe-by-default mutations** — `caddy_config_set` defaults to idempotent `overwrite` (PATCH), not `append` (POST). Calling twice doesn't duplicate your route.
+- **Defensive parsing** — `caddy_list_routes` never crashes on malformed config, even if routes are null, handlers are strings, or matchers are non-arrays. Regression-tested.
+- **No leaked credentials in errors** — if `CADDY_ADMIN_URL` contains a token in the path/query, the connect-failed message shows only the origin.
+- **Fallback error surfacing** — when a TLS write PATCH fails and the POST fallback also fails, both error bodies are returned so you know what actually went wrong.
+- **Tool annotations** — every tool declares `readOnlyHint`, `destructiveHint`, and `idempotentHint`, so MCP clients can skip confirmations for safe ops.
+- **Instant startup** — ships as a single bundle with two runtime deps (the MCP SDK + Zod). No 5-minute `node_modules` install.
+- **Input hardening** — adapter names, `@id` values, server names, and CA ids are all regex-validated with length caps. Blocks CRLF header injection and ReDoS.
 
-### Claude Code
+## Quick start
 
-```bash
-claude mcp add caddy-mcp npx @yawlabs/caddy-mcp
-```
+**1. Enable the Caddy admin API**
+
+Caddy ships with the admin API enabled on `localhost:2019` by default. If you're running Caddy in Docker or on a remote host, expose it via `CADDY_ADMIN_URL`.
 
-### Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf
+**2. Create `.mcp.json` in your project root**
 
-Add to your MCP config file:
+macOS / Linux / WSL:
 
 ```json
 {
   "mcpServers": {
-    "caddy-mcp": {
+    "caddy": {
       "command": "npx",
-      "args": ["@yawlabs/caddy-mcp"],
-      "env": {
-        "CADDY_ADMIN_URL": "http://localhost:2019"
-      }
+      "args": ["-y", "@yawlabs/caddy-mcp"]
     }
   }
 }
 ```
 
+Windows:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "caddy": {
+      "command": "cmd",
+      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@yawlabs/caddy-mcp"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+> **Why the extra step on Windows?** Since Node 20, `child_process.spawn` cannot directly execute `.cmd` files (that's what `npx` is on Windows). Wrapping with `cmd /c` is the standard workaround. This file is safe to commit — it contains no secrets.
+
+**3. Restart and approve**
+
+Restart Claude Code (or your MCP client) and approve the Caddy MCP server when prompted.
+
+That's it. Now ask your AI assistant:
+
+> "Proxy api.local to localhost:3000"
+>
+> "What routes are configured on srv0?"
+>
+> "Show me the Prometheus metrics"
+
 ## Configuration
 
-| Environment Variable | Default | Description |
+| Environment variable | Default | Description |
 |---|---|---|
-| `CADDY_ADMIN_URL` | `http://localhost:2019` | Caddy admin API URL |
-| `CADDY_API_TOKEN` | (none) | Optional Bearer token for authenticated admin endpoints |
+| `CADDY_ADMIN_URL` | `http://localhost:2019` | Caddy admin API URL. Set to `http://caddy:2019` inside Docker, or an https URL for remote admin. |
+| `CADDY_API_TOKEN` | (none) | Optional Bearer token for authenticated admin endpoints. Only needed if you've configured Caddy with auth. |
+
+**Alternate MCP clients:**
+
+| Client | Config file |
+|---|---|
+| Claude Code | `.mcp.json` (project root) or `~/.claude.json` (global) |
+| Claude Desktop | `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) |
+| Cursor | `~/.cursor/mcp.json` |
+| Windsurf | `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json` |
+| VS Code | `.vscode/mcp.json` |
+
+Use the same JSON block shown above in any of these.
 
 ## Tools
 
-### Config management
+### Config management (5)
 
-- **caddy_config_get** — Read config at any JSON path (or full config)
-- **caddy_config_set** — Create or replace config at a path
-- **caddy_config_delete** — Delete config at a path
-- **caddy_config_by_id** — Read, update, or delete config by `@id` tag
-- **caddy_load** — Replace entire config atomically
+- **caddy_config_get** — Read config at any JSON path (or the full config).
+- **caddy_config_set** — Write config at a path. Modes: `overwrite` (PATCH, default, idempotent), `append` (POST), `insert` (PUT, for array positions).
+- **caddy_config_delete** — Delete config at a path.
+- **caddy_config_by_id** — Get/set/delete config by `@id` tag — much easier than navigating deep paths.
+- **caddy_load** — Replace the entire config atomically. 60-second timeout for cert provisioning.
 
-### Route operations
+### Route operations (4)
 
-- **caddy_reverse_proxy** — Add a reverse proxy in one call: `from='api.local' to=['localhost:3000']`
-- **caddy_add_route** — Add a route with full match/handle control (any Caddy handler)
-- **caddy_list_routes** — Human-readable route summary
+- **caddy_reverse_proxy** — Add a reverse proxy in one call: `from='api.local' to=['localhost:3000']`.
+- **caddy_add_route** — Add a route with full match/handle control (any Caddy handler).
+- **caddy_remove_route** — Remove a route by `@id` (preferred) or by index. Requires `confirm=true`.
+- **caddy_list_routes** — Human-readable route summary. Defensive: never crashes on weird config.
 
-### TLS & config conversion
+### TLS & config conversion (2)
 
-- **caddy_tls** — Check/configure TLS settings, ACME email, CA
-- **caddy_adapt** — Convert Caddyfile to JSON (preview before applying)
+- **caddy_tls** — Check or set TLS settings: ACME email, ACME CA URL. Falls back gracefully when paths don't yet exist.
+- **caddy_adapt** — Convert a Caddyfile (or nginx config) to Caddy JSON without applying it. Great for previewing.
 
-### Server operations
+### Server operations (6)
 
-- **caddy_status** — Connectivity check + config summary
-- **caddy_list_servers** — List all HTTP servers with names, addresses, and TLS status
-- **caddy_upstreams** — Reverse proxy backend health
-- **caddy_metrics** — Prometheus metrics (request counts, durations, connections)
-- **caddy_pki** — CA info and certificate chains
-- **caddy_stop** — Graceful shutdown (requires confirmation)
+- **caddy_status** — Connectivity check + config summary (server count, routes, TLS mode).
+- **caddy_list_servers** — List all HTTP servers with names, addresses, route counts, and TLS status.
+- **caddy_upstreams** — Reverse proxy backend health.
+- **caddy_metrics** — Prometheus metrics (request counts, durations, connections, TLS handshakes).
+- **caddy_pki** — CA info and certificate chains (default CA: `local`).
+- **caddy_stop** — Graceful shutdown. Requires `confirm=true` to prevent accidents.
 
 ## Resources
 
-- `caddy://config` — Current Caddy JSON configuration
-- `caddy://upstreams` — Reverse proxy upstream health status
+Browsable read-only data — MCP clients can fetch these directly without a tool call:
+
+- `caddy://config` — Current full Caddy JSON configuration.
+- `caddy://servers` — Summary of all configured HTTP servers.
+- `caddy://upstreams` — Reverse proxy upstream health status.
+- `caddy://metrics` — Prometheus metrics (text exposition format).
 
 ## Examples
 
+### Add a reverse proxy
+
+```
+> "Proxy api.example.com to my app on port 3000"
+→ caddy_reverse_proxy({ from: "api.example.com", to: ["localhost:3000"] })
+```
+
+### Preview a Caddyfile before applying it
+
+```
+> "Convert this Caddyfile to JSON so I can review it:
+   example.com {
+     reverse_proxy localhost:8080
+   }"
+→ caddy_adapt({ config: "..." })
+```
+
+### Diagnose slow routes
+
+```
+> "Fetch Prometheus metrics and tell me which route is slowest"
+→ caddy_metrics()
 ```
-> "Proxy api.local to my dev server on port 3000"
-→ caddy_reverse_proxy(from: "api.local", to: ["localhost:3000"])
 
-> "What routes are configured?"
-→ caddy_list_routes()
+### Safely update a route by @id
 
-> "Show me the full Caddy config"
-→ caddy_config_get()
+```
+> "Update the route with @id 'api-v2' to point to the new backend"
+→ caddy_config_by_id({ id: "api-v2", action: "set", value: {...} })
+  # Uses ETags — you'll get HTTP 412 if someone else changed it first
+```
 
-> "Convert this Caddyfile to JSON"
-→ caddy_adapt(config: "example.com {\n  reverse_proxy localhost:8080\n}")
+### Atomic deploy
 
-> "Is Caddy running?"
-→ caddy_status()
 ```
+> "Replace the whole config with this Caddyfile"
+→ caddy_adapt({ config: "..." })  # validate first
+→ caddy_load({ config: adaptedJson })  # apply atomically
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**"Cannot connect to Caddy admin API"**
+
+- Make sure Caddy is running. `caddy run` or `systemctl status caddy`.
+- Check the admin endpoint. Default is `http://localhost:2019`. If Caddy is in Docker, use the container hostname.
+- Set `CADDY_ADMIN_URL` in your MCP config `env` to match.
+
+**"HTTP 412 Precondition Failed"**
+
+- Someone (or something) changed the config between your read and your write.
+- The cached ETag has been invalidated. Re-read the config and retry.
+
+**"HTTP 403" on /load or /config writes**
+
+- You have `admin.listen` or `admin.origins` restrictions set in your Caddy config, or you're missing an `Authorization` header.
+- Set `CADDY_API_TOKEN` in your MCP config env if Caddy expects a Bearer token.
+
+**Windows: MCP server doesn't start**
+
+- Use the `cmd /c npx ...` pattern from the Quick start section. Node 20+ can't spawn `.cmd` files directly.
 
 ## Requirements
 
-- Node.js 18+
-- Caddy server with admin API enabled (default: `localhost:2019`)
+- Node.js 20+
+- Caddy 2.x with admin API enabled (default: `localhost:2019`)
