ToolTypeWhat it does
upcloud_get_accountread
Get account
The calling account: username, remaining credits and resource limits (cores, memory, storage per tier, IPs, networks, managed services). A cheap way to confirm the token works. UpCloud: GET /1.3/account.
upcloud_list_zonesread
List zones
Available zones (data centres) with id (e.g. fi-hel1, de-fra1, us-chi1), description and whether they are public or private-cloud. Zone ids are used by every other resource. UpCloud: GET /1.3/zone.
upcloud_list_plansread
List server plans
Fixed-price server plans: name (e.g. 2xCPU-4GB), cores, memory, included storage size/tier and transfer, plus GPU model/amount for GPU plans. UpCloud: GET /1.3/plan.
upcloud_list_pricesread
List prices
The price list per zone in the account's currency: per-hour prices for plans, cores, memory, storage tiers, backups, IPv4 addresses and traffic. UpCloud: GET /1.3/price.
upcloud_get_billing_summaryread
Get monthly billing summary
Billing summary for one month with per-resource details (servers, storages, managed databases, object storage, …: amount, hours, plan, zone, labels) and totals. Needs an account allowed to read billing. UpCloud: GET /1.3/account/billing/summary/{yearmonth}.
upcloud_list_serversread
List servers
Cloud servers on the account (summary: uuid, title, hostname, zone, plan, cores, memory, state, tags, labels). Filter by state, a free-text search (name, title, uuid, zone, IP, hostname, tag or template), tags or labels. Use upcloud_get_server for IPs and disks. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server.
upcloud_get_serverread
Get server details
Full details of one server: state, plan, cores/memory, network interfaces and IP addresses, attached storage devices, firewall on/off, simple-backup schedule, labels, tags and remote-access settings. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server/{uuid}.
upcloud_list_storagesread
List storages
Storage devices: disks, backups, CD-ROM images and OS templates (uuid, title, type, tier, size GB, state, zone, labels). Narrow by `kind`: private (yours), public (UpCloud-provided), normal (disks), backup, cdrom, template or favorite. UpCloud: GET /1.3/storage[/{kind}].
upcloud_get_storageread
Get storage details
Details of one storage: size, tier, state (e.g. online, backuping), encryption, the servers it is attached to, its backups and backup_rule. Poll this to follow a backup started with upcloud_create_storage_backup. UpCloud: GET /1.3/storage/{uuid}.
upcloud_list_ip_addressesread
List IP addresses
Every IP address on the account: address, family (IPv4/IPv6), access (public/utility/private), the server it is assigned to, zone, PTR record, floating flag and release policy. UpCloud: GET /1.3/ip_address.
upcloud_list_firewall_rulesread
List server firewall rules
The firewall rules of one server in evaluation order (position, direction, action, family, protocol, address and port ranges, comment). Whether the firewall is enabled at all is the `firewall` field of upcloud_get_server. UpCloud: GET /1.3/server/{uuid}/firewall_rule.
upcloud_list_networksread
List networks
Networks visible to the account — public, utility and private SDN networks — with their IP subnets, DHCP settings, routes, attached servers and peerings. Optionally only one zone. UpCloud: GET /1.3/network/.
upcloud_list_databasesread
List managed databases
Managed Database services (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Valkey, OpenSearch): uuid, title, type, plan, zone, state, component hosts/ports, backups and labels. Note the response can include connection URIs with credentials. UpCloud: GET /1.3/database.
upcloud_list_load_balancersread
List managed load balancers
Managed Load Balancer services with their frontends, backends and members, networks, plan, zone, configured status and operational state. UpCloud: GET /1.3/load-balancer.
upcloud_list_kubernetes_clustersread
List Kubernetes clusters
Managed Kubernetes clusters: name, uuid, zone, plan, state, network/CIDR, control-plane IP filter, labels and node groups (plan, count, state). UpCloud: GET /1.3/kubernetes.
upcloud_list_object_storagesread
List managed object storages
Managed Object Storage (S3-compatible) services: uuid, name, region, configured status and operational state, public/private endpoints, custom domains and labels. UpCloud: GET /1.3/object-storage-2.
upcloud_list_audit_logsread
List audit logs
Security audit trail of the account (up to 180 days): who did what to which resource, when, from which IP and via API or Hub. Filter by action, origin, resource type, time window or a keyword (UUID, username or IP). Returns total_count for paging. UpCloud: GET /1.3/audit-logs.
upcloud_start_serverwrite
Start a server
Start a stopped server (billing for a started server resumes). Fails with 409 if it is not stopped. `async` returns immediately — poll upcloud_get_server for state=started. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/start.
upcloud_stop_serverwrite
Stop a server
DISRUPTIVE: stop a running server — it goes offline until started again with upcloud_start_server. soft (default) sends an ACPI shutdown; with a timeout, a hard stop follows if it is still running. hard is like pulling the plug and can lose unsaved data. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/stop.
upcloud_restart_serverwrite
Restart a server
DISRUPTIVE: stop and start a running server. soft (default) needs a timeout: after it, timeout_action=destroy hard-stops and restarts, ignore (API default) aborts and leaves the server running. hard power-cycles immediately. UpCloud: POST /1.3/server/{uuid}/restart.
upcloud_create_storage_backupwrite
Back up a storage
Take an on-demand, point-in-time backup of a storage device. Additive (nothing is overwritten) but backups are billed per GB. Asynchronous: the storage goes to a backuping/maintenance state and back to online — poll upcloud_get_storage. UpCloud: POST /1.3/storage/{uuid}/backup.
upcloud_modify_serverwrite
Rename a server / set its backup schedule
Change a server's title, hostname and/or simple-backup schedule. Only these reversible fields are exposed — no resizing or plan change (billing) and no firewall toggle. simple_backup is `HHMM,daily|dailies|weeklies|monthlies` (UTC time) or `no` to disable. UpCloud: PUT /1.3/server/{uuid}.
upcloud_usage_statusmeta
Usage status (free-tier meter)
Report the caller's current free-tier usage this month: calls used, monthly limit, remaining, and whether the cap is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
upcloud_upgrademeta
Upgrade to Pro (unlimited)
Subscribe to the Pro plan for UNLIMITED UpCloud tool calls (the free tier caps monthly usage). Choose monthly ($9/month) or yearly ($90/year — 2 months free) billing. Returns a Stripe Checkout link to open in your browser; after payment your account upgrades automatically. Read-only; does not count against the meter.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
