DigitalOcean integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex

One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in DigitalOcean never means pasting credentials into a prompt.

Use DigitalOcean from Claude Code

Bring DigitalOcean context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.

Automate DigitalOcean with Codex

Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.

Connect open agent workflows

Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.

Developer Tools & IT

What the DigitalOcean integration exposes

DigitalOcean is a cloud infrastructure provider offering scalable compute platforms with a user-friendly interface.

One connection, many teammates

Connect DigitalOcean once, then decide which teammates can use it for threads, automations, skills, and coding work.

Representative actions

  • Create Custom Image

    Creates a custom image in DigitalOcean by importing a Linux VM disk image from a publicly accessible URL. Use this action to upload custom OS images (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Fedora, etc.) that can later be used to create Droplets. The image will be processed asynchronously and its status can be monitored via the returned image ID.

  • Create Database Cluster

    Creates a new managed database cluster on DigitalOcean. Provisions a database with specified engine (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Valkey, MongoDB, Kafka, or OpenSearch), version, region, size, and node count. Returns connection credentials and cluster details. The cluster will be in 'creating' status initially and take several minutes to become fully operational.

  • Create New Block Storage Volume

    Tool to create a new block storage volume. Use when you need to provision persistent block storage after confirming the target region supports volumes. Example: "Create a 100 GiB ext4 backup volume named 'db-backup' in nyc1."

  • Create New Domain

    Creates a new domain in DigitalOcean's DNS management system. This adds the domain to your DigitalOcean account and allows you to manage its DNS records. Use this action when you need to: - Add a domain to DigitalOcean DNS for DNS hosting and management - Set up a new domain with an optional initial A record pointing to an IP address - Transfer DNS management of an existing domain to DigitalOcean Note: The domain name must be unique within your DigitalOcean account and use a recognized top-level domain (TLD). After creation, you can add additional DNS records using the create domain record action.

  • Create Domain Record

    Tool to create a new DNS record for a domain. Use after confirming domain exists and record specifics.

Connection

API and auth details

DigitalOcean exposes APIs for Droplets, Kubernetes, App Platform, load balancers, volumes, networking, databases, firewalls, monitoring, projects, registries, Spaces object storage, and Gradient AI services. Authentication commonly uses personal access tokens, with SDK and CLI support for infrastructure automation.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting DigitalOcean

Can Claude Code use DigitalOcean?

Yes. Type lets an AI teammate use connected DigitalOcean actions from a governed workspace context, so Claude Code work can reference the app without copying credentials into a local prompt.

Can Codex work with DigitalOcean through Type?

Yes. Codex can collaborate through Type with app context, skills, and approved actions. The DigitalOcean catalog entry includes public integration details and example capabilities where available.

Is this the same as a DigitalOcean MCP server?

Type exposes connected app capabilities to AI teammates and coding agents through Type's integration layer. Teams use it when they want shared app access, human review, and teammate-level permissions around agent work.
