SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the manual effort of wiring Netlify into a self-hosted Hermes agent, so deploys and site operations can be managed remotely and repeatably over SSH.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • SSH-first setup: Stores the Netlify personal access token on the VPS and registers the integration where Hermes runs.
  • Two execution paths: Uses the official Netlify MCP stdio server when possible, or falls back to direct REST calls on headless systems.
  • Safety and reliability: Includes idempotency checks, dry-run guidance, gateway reload steps, log verification, smoke tests, and rollback instructions.
  • Use case: A developer wants their AI agent to trigger Netlify deploys, list sites, and manage frontend hosting without exposing credentials in chat.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to connect Netlify to your Hermes server and complete the token check, registration, gateway reload, and verification steps.

Frequently Asked Questions about integration-netlify

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I connect Netlify to a self-hosted Hermes agent over SSH?▼

You can trigger Netlify deploys from an AI agent by registering the Netlify MCP stdio server with your Hermes instance. If the MCP server is unavailable on headless systems, it falls back to direct REST calls to execute site operations and build triggering.

Do I need a Netlify Personal Access Token to manage sites via Hermes?▼

Yes, a Netlify Personal Access Token is required. The integration stores this token securely in environment variables on your VPS, ensuring your AI agent can manage frontend hosting and trigger builds without exposing credentials in chat.

How does the Netlify MCP server integration handle deployment failures?▼

The Netlify MCP server integration handles deployment failures through rollback-safe idempotent registration. It includes built-in safety checks, dry-run guidance, log verification, and smoke tests to ensure reliable site operations and safe recovery.

Can I manage Netlify site operations on a headless VPS without the MCP server?▼

Yes, you can manage Netlify site operations on a headless VPS without the MCP server by using a direct REST fallback. This ensures build triggering and site management remain functional even when the official MCP stdio server cannot be used.

What are the limitations of automating Netlify deployments through an SSH-backed setup?▼

Limitations of automating Netlify deployments through an SSH-backed setup include strict dependency on gateway reload steps and accurate environment-variable storage. Rollback safety requires idempotent registration, meaning misconfigured environments may fail log verification or smoke tests.
