Anthology Blackboard Learn MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Anthology Blackboard Learn and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 247 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions (126 reads, 80 writes and 41 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Anthology Blackboard Learn credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Anthology Blackboard Learn's limits and records every call.

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up

Connect Anthology Blackboard Learn in three steps.

  1. 01

    Add actionlake to Claude.

    Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect Anthology Blackboard Learn.

    OAuth 2.0, client credentials. Paste the app's client id and secret; actionlake fetches and renews the token, and nobody has to sign in. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    • client_idApplication key of a REST application registered on the Anthology Developer Portal (developer.anthology.com > My Apps)
    • client_secretApplication secret of the same REST application (shown once on the Developer Portal)
    • tenant_hostWhere your Anthology Blackboard Learn lives: your tenant host
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "anthology_blackboard_learn" }
    # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
  3. 03

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

    Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

    do    { action: "anthology_blackboard_learn.users.list" }# get users · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "anthology_blackboard_learn.users.create", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

41 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions are destructive. The first 10:

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Questions

The Anthology Blackboard Learn MCP server, answered.

Is there an Anthology Blackboard Learn MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 247 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions across course grades, institutional hierarchy, attendance and course groups, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Anthology Blackboard Learn.

What do I need to connect Anthology Blackboard Learn?

Application key of a REST application registered on the Anthology Developer Portal (developer.anthology.com > My Apps) and Application secret of the same REST application (shown once on the Developer Portal). Plus your tenant host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "anthology_blackboard_learn" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Anthology Blackboard Learn?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 41 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions are destructive, including delete User, delete Course and delete Term. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my Anthology Blackboard Learn API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Anthology Blackboard Learn service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (125 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions can be), which never reaches Anthology Blackboard Learn.

What does an Anthology Blackboard Learn action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (247 Anthology Blackboard Learn actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Anthology Blackboard Learn refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which Anthology Blackboard Learn API does it cover?

The Learn REST API 3900.23.0 (Swagger 2.0; v1, v2 and v3 paths) at your Anthology Blackboard Learn instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Anthology Blackboard Learn's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 247 actions in 38 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Anthology Blackboard Learn data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Anthology Blackboard Learn credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
