# ERPNext (Frappe) MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to ERPNext (Frappe) and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 720 ERPNext (Frappe) actions (320 reads, 263 writes and 137 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the ERPNext (Frappe) credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces ERPNext (Frappe)'s limits and records every call.

[Connect ERPNext (Frappe) free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing)

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 ERPNext (Frappe) 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 ERPNext (Frappe).
   API key. 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.
   - `api_key` API Key of the ERPNext user actionlake acts as (User > Settings > API Access > Generate Keys)
   - `api_secret` API Secret shown once when the keys are generated
   - `host` Where your ERPNext (Frappe) lives: your host
   ```
   account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "erpnext" }
   # 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: "erpnext.sales_invoice.list" }
   # list sales invoice records · read · 1 upstream call
   check { action: "erpnext.sales_invoice.create", input: { … } }
   # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent
   ```

## Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the ERPNext (Frappe) actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

1. Read read
   Which ERPNext (Frappe) invoices are more than 30 days overdue? Group them by customer with the total owed.
   calls `erpnext.sales_invoice.list`
2. Write write
   Create a Sales Invoice in ERPNext (Frappe). Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.
   calls `erpnext.sales_invoice.create`
3. Across systems read
   For each customer, how many invoices are in ERPNext (Frappe) and how many tickets in ConnectWise PSA?
   calls `erpnext.sales_invoice.list` `connectwise_manage.tickets.list`

Across your systems

## ERPNext (Frappe), joined to the rest of your business.

One `ask` fetches from ERPNext (Frappe) and another system, joins the rows on the same customer on our side, and hands your agent the answer, not every row.

- For each customer, how many invoices are in ERPNext (Frappe) and how many tickets in ConnectWise PSA?
  `erpnext.sales_invoice.list` + `connectwise_manage.tickets.list`, on `crm.company` · [ConnectWise PSA](https://actionlake.com/connectors/connectwise-psa)
- For each customer, how many invoices are in ERPNext (Frappe) and how many tickets in HubSpot CRM?
  `erpnext.sales_invoice.list` + `hubspot_crm.tickets.list`, on `crm.company` · [HubSpot CRM](https://actionlake.com/connectors/hubspot-crm)

ask

```
ask {
  intent: "for each customer, how many invoices are in ERPNext (Frappe) and how many tickets in ConnectWise PSA",
  steps: [
    { action: "erpnext.sales_invoice.list", as: "inv", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { action: "connectwise_manage.tickets.list", as: "tix", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { join: {
        left: "inv",
        right: "tix",
        on: "crm.company",
        group_by: "inv.company_name",
        select: ["inv.company_name", "count(inv.id) as invoices", "count(tix.id) as tickets"]
    } }
  ]
}
```

Example. Run it through check first: it validates the steps and prices them, and it is free.

Governance for ERPNext (Frappe)

## Destructive actions wait for a yes.

137 ERPNext (Frappe) actions are destructive. The first 10:

- Delete a Sales Invoice `erpnext.sales_invoice.delete`
- Delete a Payment Entry `erpnext.payment_entry.delete`
- Delete a Contact `erpnext.contact.delete`
- Delete a Quotation `erpnext.quotation.delete`
- Delete a Customer `erpnext.customer.delete`
- Delete a Purchase Order `erpnext.purchase_order.delete`
- Delete an Account `erpnext.account.delete`
- Delete a Purchase Invoice `erpnext.purchase_invoice.delete`
- Delete a Journal Entry `erpnext.journal_entry.delete`
- Delete a User `erpnext.user.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.

do erpnext.sales_invoice.delete confirm_policy: **human**

Delete a Sales Invoice?

**intent:** the user asked me to delete a Sales Invoice

run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _erpnext-agent_ cannot confirm itself

In the console, or from an emailed signed link.

```

    { match: "erpnext.contact.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }

Questions

## The ERPNext (Frappe) MCP server, answered.

**Is there an ERPNext (Frappe) MCP server for Claude?**

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 720 ERPNext (Frappe) actions across client, sales order, delivery note and material request, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by ERPNext (Frappe).

**What do I need to connect ERPNext (Frappe)?**

API Key of the ERPNext user actionlake acts as (User > Settings > API Access > Generate Keys) and API Secret shown once when the keys are generated. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "erpnext" } lists exactly what to paste.

**Can an AI agent delete or change things in ERPNext (Frappe)?**

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 137 ERPNext (Frappe) actions are destructive, including delete a Sales Invoice, delete a Payment Entry and delete a Contact. 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 ERPNext (Frappe) API limit?**

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the ERPNext (Frappe) service file: 300 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (320 ERPNext (Frappe) actions can be), which never reaches ERPNext (Frappe).

**What does an ERPNext (Frappe) action cost?**

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (720 ERPNext (Frappe) actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls ERPNext (Frappe) 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 ERPNext (Frappe) API does it cover?**

The Frappe REST API v1 (/api/resource, /api/method) with v2 extras; ERPNext/Frappe version-15 at your ERPNext (Frappe) instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from ERPNext (Frappe)'s documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 720 actions in 116 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

**Can I combine ERPNext (Frappe) with my other systems?**

Yes. ask joins ERPNext (Frappe) to ConnectWise PSA or HubSpot CRM on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. ERPNext (Frappe) maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

**Does actionlake keep my ERPNext (Frappe) 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 ERPNext (Frappe) 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.
