Claude Code · Codex

Tell your game server what you have in mind.

Connect Claude Code or Codex to your server. Ask your assistant to install plugins, adjust settings or investigate startup issues. You choose which servers it can access.

Connect AI assistant See examples

Integration included at no extra charge. You need a compatible AI assistant; its provider may charge separately.

Start with these tasks

Check my server status. Do not change anything yet.
Add these three players to the whitelist.
Check whether this plugin supports my server version. Ask me before installing it.

Example tasks: available features depend on the game, plan and permissions granted.

Connected in four steps

Connect Claude Code or Codex

Choose your assistant, copy both commands and run them in your terminal. Then choose servers, permissions and duration in your browser.

You do not need to copy a token.

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http ezplayhost https://ezplayhost.com/api/automation/v1/mcp
claude mcp login ezplayhost
Connect manually with a token

For REST and MCP applications without browser sign-in, you can still create a restricted token.

Important: this is not a command for your server's game console. Enter it in the terminal on your own computer (Windows: PowerShell, macOS and Linux: Terminal).

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http ezplayhost https://ezplayhost.com/api/automation/v1/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>"

Codex reads the token from an environment variable. The first line sets it for the current terminal. To keep it permanently, add it to your shell profile.

Important: this is not a command for your server's game console. Enter it in the terminal on your own computer (Windows: PowerShell, macOS and Linux: Terminal).

export EZPLAYHOST_ASSISTANT_TOKEN="<TOKEN>"
codex mcp add ezplayhost --url https://ezplayhost.com/api/automation/v1/mcp --bearer-token-env-var EZPLAYHOST_ASSISTANT_TOKEN

For manual setup, your MCP client must support Streamable HTTP and a configurable bearer token. Clients with OAuth support connect through the browser sign-in instead, without a token.

URL: https://ezplayhost.com/api/automation/v1/mcp
Header: Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>

No MCP support? The same actions are available as a plain REST interface with an OpenAPI description.

Important: this is not a command for your server's game console. Enter it in the terminal on your own computer (Windows: PowerShell, macOS and Linux: Terminal).

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>" https://ezplayhost.com/api/automation/v1/servers

The <TOKEN> placeholder stands for your access. Inside your account the page fills it in automatically.

Good to know

  • For installs, backups and version changes, "accepted" does not mean "finished" yet. The assistant should verify completion through status, inventory and console.
  • File permissions and console commands allow far-reaching changes. If you do not want that, choose the permissions individually in your profile.
  • Account permissions such as email, password and cancellation are never part of the quick path and always have to be confirmed in the browser.
  • You can revoke the access at any time in the tile or in your profile. It becomes invalid immediately.
  • The complete technical guide and the API contract are readable without signing in.

What stays under your control

  • Permissions per token: reading, power control, files, console and account are selected separately.
  • Server binding: a token only covers the servers you assign to it, never new ones automatically.
  • Revoke at any time: one click in your profile and the token is invalid everywhere, immediately.
  • Expiry date: you can limit a token to a fixed lifetime from the start.
  • Traceability: every action appears in the server activity log with its timestamp and the token used.
  • Request limits: calls are capped per token, so a misbehaving assistant cannot overrun your server.
  • The token does not belong in a chat: only ever paste it into your assistant's protected credentials field.

automation:unattended Extra permission for unattended execution. Without it, the assistant asks you to confirm these steps in your signed-in account: server software changes, Modpack installation, Modpack updates, server reinstall, world import, subdomain changes and opening a support ticket. Account actions — email address, password, cancellation, deletion — always stay confirmation-bound. Everything else runs directly, within the permissions you granted.

Frequently asked questions

Does the interface cost extra?

No. The Automation API is part of every server and costs nothing on top. You still pay for your server only.

Which assistants work?

MCP clients with Streamable HTTP and a configurable bearer token are supported, for example Codex CLI. Compatibility depends on the application version and configuration. Alternatively, call the same actions through the REST API.

Can the assistant spend money on my behalf?

No. Orders, renewals and payments run exclusively through the checkout in your signed-in account. An assistant token cannot trigger a payment.

What does "without asking" mean?

Account actions — email address, password, cancellation, deletion — always require confirmation. The extra permission allows certain server actions without browser confirmation. Protection points depend on the action; there is no general backup or rollback guarantee. A file backup does not protect external SQL databases.

How do I revoke a token?

Withdraw it in your profile under "Automation API". It loses validity immediately; any request the assistant has in flight fails afterwards.
