## Tools

14 declared. Statically extracted from the shipped source — a floor on the surface, not a census.
- `get_account` — Get the authenticated PreviewDrop account info (email, plan, tenant name)
- `list_projects` — List all PreviewDrop projects in the account
- `list_deployments` — List deployments, optionally filtered by project, branch, or status
- `get_deployment` — Get details of a specific deployment by ID
- `deploy` — Trigger a new preview deployment for a project
- `destroy_deployment` — Stop and destroy a deployment by ID
- `redeploy` — Redeploy an existing deployment by ID (same project + branch)
- `get_build_logs` — Fetch build logs (nixpacks / Dockerfile output) for a deployment
- `get_runtime_logs` — Fetch runtime (container stdout/stderr) logs for a deployment
- `create_project` — Add a repository as a PreviewDrop project. GitHub (default) needs the GitHub App installed on the repo owner's account — if not, use get_github_app_install_url 
- `get_github_app_install_url` — Returns the GitHub URL where the user must install the PreviewDrop GitHub App. Call this when create_project returns a 403 about the App not being installed.
- `get_project_env_vars` — Get the environment variable keys configured for a project. Values are masked (shown as ***) — use this to see what vars are set without exposing secrets.
- `set_project_env_vars` — Merge environment variables into a project. Existing vars not in the payload are kept. Values are encrypted at rest.
- `deploy_repo` — PRIMARY TOOL — call this immediately for any "preview", "deploy", "get a URL", or "share my project" request.

## Install

**Verdict: review** — Installable, but 1 thing to check first: No publisher has proved control of this listing; it is indexed, not vouched for.
**Cautions** (coverage gaps and advisories — never blocking)
- No publisher has proved control of this listing; it is indexed, not vouched for.
**Config** (claude-code):
```json
"{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"previewdrop\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\n        \"-y\",\n        \"previewdrop\"\n      ],\n      \"env\": {\n        \"PREVIEWDROP_API_KEY\": \"<YOUR_PREVIEWDROP_API_KEY>\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}"
```
**Credentials it will ask for** (names only — Forge never holds a value):
- `PREVIEWDROP_API_KEY` — Previewdrop API Key (optional)
Placeholders only. Forge never holds, brokers, or transmits a credential value — replace each <YOUR_NAME> in your own config file. Do not send a value back to Forge; no Forge endpoint accepts one.
- This entry needs 1 credential (0 required). The generated config carries placeholders, so it will fail in the editor rather than at runtime if they are left unset.

## Blast radius

Extensive blast radius — deletes data; holds an api key.
- Floor 53, ceiling 53 (tier: extensive)
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
