A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for DirectAdmin integration, allowing AI assistants to interact with DirectAdmin through natural language.

Features

Architecture

This project implements a server that acts as a bridge between AI assistants and DirectAdmin:

┌──────────┐     ┌─────────────────┐     ┌────────────┐
│   AI     │     │  DirectAdmin    │     │ DirectAdmin│
│ Assistant├────►│  MCP Server     ├────►│   API      │
└──────────┘     └─────────────────┘     └────────────┘
      MCP                SSE                 HTTP

The server exposes DirectAdmin functionality through a tool-based interface, making it easy for AI assistants to understand and interact with DirectAdmin operations.
