This guide provides step-by-step instructions to set up 1Panel in Klavis AI, including configuration, examples, and troubleshooting.

What You'll Achieve

After completing this setup:

  • 1Panel will be fully integrated and operational
  • You can use 1Panel tools directly in Klavis AI
  • All 1Panel capabilities will be available for your workflows
  • Access to 5 different tools

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure you have:

  • 1Panel access token for authentication
  • 1Panel server address
  • Klavis AI installed and configured
  • Compatible operating system (Cloud (klavis.ai), Self-Hosted (Docker), Python SDK, TypeScript SDK)

Installation

Step 1: Install 1Panel

Configuration

Step 2: Configure Klavis AI

  1. Open Klavis AI settings
  2. Navigate to MCP server configuration
  3. Add 1Panel server with appropriate settings
  4. Save and restart if needed

Examples

Once configured, you can use 1Panel in Klavis AI:

Get System Overview

Check 1Panel server status and system information

Ask Klavis AI: "Show me the dashboard information and system status"

Expected Result: Dashboard data including CPU, memory, disk usage, and running services

Create New Website

Set up a new website with domain configuration

Ask Klavis AI: "Create a website for domain example.com with PHP support"

Expected Result: Website created with virtual host configuration and PHP environment

Install Database Server

Install and configure MySQL server

Ask Klavis AI: "Install MySQL and create a database called myapp_db"

Expected Result: MySQL installed, database created, and connection details provided

SSL Certificate Setup

Generate and configure SSL certificate for website

Ask Klavis AI: "Create an SSL certificate for my website example.com"

Expected Result: SSL certificate generated and configured for HTTPS access

Testing Your Setup

  1. Launch Klavis AI
  2. Verify 1Panel is available in the tools list
  3. Test basic 1Panel functionality

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Authentication Failed

Symptoms: Access denied errors, Invalid token messages, Connection refused

Cause: Invalid or missing PANEL_ACCESS_TOKEN

Solution:

  • Verify PANEL_ACCESS_TOKEN is set correctly
  • Check token validity in 1Panel admin interface
  • Ensure token has sufficient permissions

Connection to 1Panel Failed

Symptoms: Connection timeout, Server unreachable, Network errors

Cause: Invalid PANEL_HOST or 1Panel server not running

Solution:

  • Verify PANEL_HOST URL is correct
  • Check 1Panel server is running on specified port
  • Test network connectivity to 1Panel server
  • Ensure firewall allows connections

SSE Mode Not Working

Symptoms: SSE endpoint not responding, Transport errors

Cause: Incorrect SSE configuration or port conflicts

Solution:

  • Verify -addr parameter is accessible
  • Check port is not in use by another service
  • Ensure SSE transport is specified correctly
  • Test SSE endpoint with curl

Binary Not Found

Symptoms: Command not found, mcp-1panel: command not found

Cause: Binary not in PATH or not properly installed

Solution:

  • Verify binary is in /usr/local/bin or system PATH
  • Check file permissions (executable bit)
  • Re-download and reinstall binary
  • Use full path to binary if needed

API Authentication Failed

Symptoms: 401 Unauthorized errors, Invalid API key message

Cause: Missing or incorrect API key

Solution:

  • Verify API key is correctly copied from klavis.ai dashboard
  • Check API key is set in environment variable or code
  • Ensure API key has not expired
  • Regenerate API key if necessary

OAuth Authorization Errors

Symptoms: OAuth redirect failures, Authentication loop, Token refresh errors

Cause: OAuth credentials not configured or expired

Solution:

  • Complete OAuth authorization flow for required services
  • Check redirect URLs are correctly configured
  • Verify OAuth app credentials in service provider settings
  • Contact Klavis support for OAuth troubleshooting

Tool Call Failures

Symptoms: Tool not found errors, Execution timeouts, Rate limit errors

Cause: Tool not properly configured or service rate limits exceeded

Solution:

  • Verify tool name matches available tools list
  • Check service-specific rate limits and quotas
  • Ensure required parameters are provided correctly
  • Review Klavis API logs for detailed error messages

Context Window Overload

Symptoms: Too many tools error, Context length exceeded, Slow responses

Cause: Too many tools exposed to AI agent at once

Solution:

  • Use Strata Progressive Discovery to expose tools hierarchically
  • Reduce number of simultaneous MCP servers in Strata configuration
  • Filter tools based on current task context
  • Enable intelligent tool filtering in Strata settings

Docker Deployment Issues

Symptoms: Container fails to start, Port conflicts, Connection refused

Cause: Docker configuration or port binding errors

Solution:

  • Ensure Docker is installed and running
  • Check port 5000 is not already in use (or change port mapping)
  • Verify Docker image pulled successfully
  • Check container logs: docker logs <container-id>

1Panel not appearing in Klavis AI

Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available

Cause: Configuration or installation issue

Solution:

  • Verify configuration syntax
  • Check 1Panel installation
  • Restart Klavis AI
  • Check logs for error messages
