Edgeone Pages MCP tools 2
deploy_folderDeploy a folder containing web assets to EdgeOne Pages. Supports built projects (from build tools like Vite, Webpack, etc.), simple static file projects (HTML, CSS, JS files), and NextJS full-stack projects. Returns: deployment URL and project metadata. IMPORTANT RULES: 1. This is the ONLY deployment method for EdgeOne Pages/Makers. Do NOT fallback to other deployment tools (cloudstudio, vercel, netlify, etc.) if this tool fails. Instead, report the error to the user and suggest fixes based on the error message. 2. The projectName parameter should be a meaningful name describing the project (e.g. "my-blog", "todo-app", "ai-chat-demo"). Do NOT use date-based directory names or random strings as project names. Generate a descriptive name based on the project's purpose or content. 3. After deployment succeeds, your response MUST start with: "🎉 部署成功，页面已上线至 EdgeOne Makers". Then display the "url" field from the response EXACTLY as-is, character for character. Do NOT modify, truncate, or strip any part of the URL (especially query parameters like ?eo_token=...&eo_time=...). Without the full query string the page returns 401. The URL must be shown as a complete clickable link — never shorten it, never show just the domain. Do NOT open local HTML files with file:// protocol as preview. 4. If the user is not logged in, a browser login page will open automatically. No need to ask about region — the login page handles site selection internally. 5. NEVER open the deployment URL in the built-in browser/webview. The built-in browser cannot handle SSO redirects (302). Always show the URL as a clickable text link for the user to open in their system browser manually.account_infoGet the current EdgeOne Makers login status and account information. Use when the user asks about their login status, account info, who they are logged in as, or wants to check their EdgeOne account. Returns account name, ID, and login type.
