Sliplane is a Germany-based Container-as-a-Service (CaaS) platform that lets developers build, run, and monitor Dockerized applications in the cloud with simple, transparent, hourly server pricing and unlimited services per server. The platform positions itself as a European alternative to Heroku, Render, Fly.io, and Railway, offering push-to-deploy from GitHub, one-click deployment of 400k+ Docker Hub images, environment variable and secret management, free SSL certificates, custom domains, daily volume backups, private networking via Twingate, SSH access, health checks, log streaming, and service metrics. Servers are available in Germany, Finland, US East, US West, and Singapore, with five tier sizes ranging from a 2 vCPU / 2 GB Base server at roughly EUR 9/month to a 16 vCPU / 32 GB XX-Large server at roughly EUR 224/month. Sliplane exposes a public REST API at ctrl.sliplane.io/v0 covering identity, projects, services, deployments, domains, events, logs, metrics, pause/unpause, registry credentials, servers, volumes, and OAuth clients, with both API key (api_rw_/api_ro_) and OAuth authentication. Sliplane also operates a hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at mcp.sliplane.io that mirrors the public API for AI-assistant-driven deployment management, alongside a Python MCP reference implementation, a Go SDK for the underlying DataPacket infrastructure, a reverse-proxy image, a Postgres-SSL image, an Open WebUI theme, and numerous Dockerized application boilerplates published under the sliplane GitHub organization.
Sliplane is listed with 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Container Hosting, Docker Hosting, Container As A Service, Platform-as-a-Service, and Push To Deploy.
Sliplane’s developer surface includes pricing, documentation, API reference, tooling, engineering blog, changelog, status page, and 19 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Open Source Surface applies to this provider. This product is open source and we
read its repository directly, so Open Source Surface carries
10 points of the composite. It is scored from what the repository actually
publishes — a security policy, a contribution guide, a release history, a code of conduct — read live from the
provider rather than inferred from our own catalog pointers.
This facet adds; nothing was taken away to make room for it. An open-source project is not excused from
the commercial facets, because exemption would strip it of the points it does earn.
If we have the wrong repository, or this product is not open source, say so on your
provider repo and we
will drop the facet rather than have you publish against it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them,
because both conditional facets apply and carry
25 points together. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
Idempotency+9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
Stable Error Semantics+8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes
A2A Agent Card+8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Rate-Limit Signaling+7 pts — OpenAPI responses document X-RateLimit-* / RateLimit headers (verified), else a rate_limits artifact or RateLimits link (documented)
9 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.
Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):
Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.

description: The Sliplane MCP server exposes the Sliplane Control API as Model Context Protocol tools so AI assistants (Claude,
Cursor, VS Code) can manage deployments, projects, services, and infrastructure on a user's behalf. The hosted endpoint
at https://mcp.sliplane.io uses SSE transport with an Authorization Bearer header carrying a Sliplane API key. A reference
Python implementation is published under the sliplane/mcp GitHub repository and can also be self-hosted via uv or Docker.
