MCP server for apps?

[ekevu123]

How about integrating MCP for apps? This way, I could use AI help, like Claude Code, for debugging or any other terminal access to any of my apps. It would need to be secured via SSH, but then it should be reasonably secure? And since this is only about app access, and not about full server access, there is little chance to break stuff on a bigger scale?

I suppose every app would need to have a separate MCP server, but I could just add the ones I really need.

Is this the same as

?

@james No, the cited discussion focuses on Openwebui.

Hello @ekevu123
I understand that the discussion is about OpenWebUI, but the technology discussed MCP and MCPO / MCP Proxy Server are the same, or not?

If I understand it correctly MCP should be added as a https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/addons/ like redis for certain apps.

Correct?
