Tenant and fleet administration
The platform-operator side of mcpg.cloud — seed and manage tenant organizations, and register or decommission the clusters that host gateways, with the mcpg admin CLI.
Most cloud work happens through mcpg cloud. Two tasks
are reserved for platform operators — the people who own the deployment, not
individual tenants — and live in a separate CLI, mcpg admin. It has two
surfaces, split by which service they talk to and how they authenticate.
Manage tenant organizations
The org surface seeds and controls tenant organizations. It authenticates with
the federation's shared admin token (--admin-token / MCPG_FED_ADMIN_TOKEN)
— a machine credential, deliberately separate from user login.
mcpg admin org create --slug acme --plan <P> \
--owner-email owner@acme.com --owner-password '…'
mcpg admin org get acme
mcpg admin org list
mcpg admin org add-owner acme --owner-email second@acme.com --owner-password '…'
mcpg admin org set-plan acme --plan <P> --status active
You can derive the org from a tenant claim instead of a literal slug with
--tenant-claim; the CLI applies the exact same slug function the platform uses
at login, so the seeded org matches what that claim resolves to. After seeding,
licensing flows automatically — the platform fetches the org's license at the
tenant's next login, or within a few minutes via the refresh loop.
Manage the cluster fleet
The cluster surface registers and retires the Kubernetes clusters that host
managed gateways. It authenticates with an OIDC id_token from
mcpg admin login; the platform's admin-email allowlist decides who may call it.
mcpg admin login
mcpg admin cluster list
mcpg admin cluster health
mcpg admin cluster register --name eu-1 --region eu --gateways-max 200 \
--kubeconfig ./eu-1.kubeconfig
mcpg admin cluster decommission <ID>
Credential material (--kubeconfig, --ca-pem) is read from disk so secrets
never appear in the process arguments. decommission refuses while gateways are
still running on the cluster unless you pass --force (which orphans them).
