Docker / VPS

Run on any machine that can serve HTTPS — a DigitalOcean Droplet, Hetzner VPS, etc.

1

Build and run the container

# Build
docker build . -t mcp-paradex-http
# Run
docker run -d \
--name mcp-paradex \
--restart unless-stopped \
-p 8080:8080 \
-e MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http \
-e MCP_PORT=8080 \
-e PARADEX_ENVIRONMENT=prod \
mcp-paradex-http

Add HTTPS with a reverse proxy

AI clients require https://. Use a reverse proxy like Caddy to add HTTPS (it handles certificates automatically):

your-domain.com {
reverse_proxy localhost:8080
}
caddy run --config /etc/caddy/Caddyfile

Connect your AI client

Paste your URL (e.g. https://your-domain.com/mcp) into your AI client’s MCP settings. See the Remote MCP quickstart for client-specific instructions.
