Environment variables
  • HETZNER_API_TOKENrequiredsecretHetzner Cloud API token from the Cloud Console (project > Security > API tokens). The server can do exactly what this token allows; use a Read token if the client only needs to read.
  • HETZNER_READ_ONLYtrue: every tool that is not read-only, and hcloud_raw_request with a method other than GET, returns an error without sending a request. Any value other than true, 1, yes, false, 0, no or empty stops the server at startup.
  • HETZNER_CONFIRM_WRITEStrue: every tool that is not read-only returns a preview unless the call carries confirm "YES". Friction against mistakes, not a security boundary.
  • LOG_LEVELLog level of the JSON logs on stderr.

A starting point — check the repository for exact arguments and setup. Restart your client after editing the config.

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
