Appwrite Cloud MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Appwrite Cloud and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 763 Appwrite Cloud actions (237 reads, 436 writes and 90 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Appwrite Cloud credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Appwrite Cloud's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect Appwrite Cloud 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 Appwrite Cloud.

    Header credentials. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    • project_idAppwrite project ID (Console > project > Settings)
    • api_keyAppwrite API key (Console > project > Overview > Integrations > API keys) with the scopes the actions you call need
    • hostWhere your Appwrite Cloud lives: your host
    • organization_idYour Appwrite Cloud organization id
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "appwrite" }
# 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: "appwrite.users.list" }# list users · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "appwrite.users.create", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Top actions

The Appwrite Cloud API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 21 of Appwrite Cloud's 21 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Try it

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Appwrite Cloud actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

  1. Readread

    Which Appwrite Cloud files changed this week, and who changed them?

    callsappwrite.storage.list_files

  2. Writewrite

    Create user in Appwrite Cloud. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsappwrite.users.create

Governance for Appwrite Cloud

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

90 Appwrite Cloud actions are destructive. The first 10:

  • Delete fileappwrite.storage.delete_file
  • Delete userappwrite.users.delete
  • Delete teamappwrite.teams.delete
  • Delete tableappwrite.tables_db.delete_table
  • Delete databaseappwrite.tables_db.delete
  • Delete Applicationappwrite.apps.delete
  • Delete databaseappwrite.mongo.delete
  • Delete databaseappwrite.mysql.delete
  • Delete siteappwrite.sites.delete
  • Delete tokenappwrite.tokens.delete

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.

doappwrite.storage.delete_fileconfirm_policy: human

Cost

What Appwrite Cloud costs on actionlake.

Every Appwrite Cloud action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call Appwrite Cloud refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. 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.

Questions

The Appwrite Cloud MCP server, answered.

Is there an Appwrite Cloud MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 763 Appwrite Cloud actions across project, tables DB, databases and domains, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Appwrite Cloud.

What do I need to connect Appwrite Cloud?

Appwrite project ID (Console > project > Settings) and Appwrite API key (Console > project > Overview > Integrations > API keys) with the scopes the actions you call need. Plus your host and your organization id. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "appwrite" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Appwrite Cloud?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 90 Appwrite Cloud actions are destructive, including delete file, delete user and delete team. 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 Appwrite Cloud API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Appwrite Cloud service file: 25 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (216 Appwrite Cloud actions can be), which never reaches Appwrite Cloud.

What does an Appwrite Cloud action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (763 Appwrite Cloud actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Appwrite Cloud 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 Appwrite Cloud API does it cover?

The Appwrite REST API 2.5.0 (server SDK surface, /v1) at cloud.appwrite.io/v1 by default, or the base URL set when you connect. It is built from Appwrite Cloud's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 763 actions in 30 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Appwrite Cloud 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 Appwrite Cloud 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.
