Architecture

Commands

  • init - Generate server.json templates with auto-detection
  • login - Handle authentication (github, dns, http, none)
  • publish - Validate and upload servers to registry
  • logout - Clear stored credentials

Authentication Providers

  • github - Interactive OAuth flow
  • github-oidc - CI/CD with GitHub Actions
  • dns - Domain verification via DNS TXT records
  • http - Domain verification via HTTPS endpoints
  • none - No auth (testing only)
