Warning

Administrative Unraid permissions; validate via read-only server action.
New users should use CRGX/crates.io; npm route described as compatibility-only.
Supported in publisher npm README; confirm local platform/prerequisites and never paste credentials as literals.
Prior reviewed safety note: Do not place orders, spend tokens, modify infrastructure or upload confidential files as a test.
Prior reviewed safety note: Do not invent a one-line reversal command.
Earlier review note retained for provenance; the V3 verified fields take precedence: Second-pass 2026-10-14 could not retrieve full current publisher npm README; preserve baseline, do not promote source-specific claims or run commands until documentation is rechecked.
Publisher GitHub README or package registry bin metadata reviewed 2026-10-14.
Client unregister, package uninstall, data deletion, and OAuth/API token/wallet permissions are distinct.

Install / connect
Publisher instructions
IMPORTANT: official publisher prefers CRGX/crates.io, npm launcher only compatibility. Set UNRAID_API_URL and UNRAID_API_KEY; do not disable TLS verification routinely.

MCP100 setup guide
The npm package @dinglebear/unraid publishes `unraid-rmcp` and `runraid` executable bins (npm registry version 0.3.0), and the publisher README recommends CRGX. Set UNRAID_API_URL and UNRAID_API_KEY following the upstream Unraid GraphQL setup.
Check connection
Suggested check
Inspect client MCP tool list; for HTTP deployment only, publisher health endpoint can verify process liveness. Use read-only NAS status/array tools for authenticated connection, not operations on containers or disks.
Remove / uninstall / revoke
MCP100 setup guide
For a Claude Code registration named `dinglebear-unraid`, run `claude mcp remove dinglebear-unraid`; otherwise remove the exact entry in the chosen MCP client settings and restart/reconnect. This client-host removal command is MCP100-composed from Claude Code lifecycle documentation, not a vendor-authored uninstall. With `npx`, a separate global package uninstall normally is unnecessary. Do not delete provider data or credentials by default. CRGX binary/plugin uninstall is different from removing the client entry.
Client unregister, package uninstall, data deletion, and OAuth/API token/wallet permissions are distinct.

Not verified. The available evidence does not establish the complete write authority. The partial inventory lists: Manage Docker containers; Manage virtual machines; Storage administration. Recorded permission context: Unraid administrator authority can manage NAS, storage, Docker and virtual machines; use the minimum roles, approvals and network isolation.

What data-handling boundary should I consider?

Unraid administrator authority can manage NAS, storage, Docker and virtual machines; use the minimum roles, approvals and network isolation. Recorded sensitive-access context: Service account information and data accessible by supplied credentials.

What limitations and risks should I check before use?

Unraid administrator authority can manage NAS, storage, Docker and virtual machines; use the minimum roles, approvals and network isolation. Publicly documented capabilities are not a guarantee of a safe deployment; review third-party data processing and access scopes. Public exact-package npm downloads observed for recent 30-day window.
