fal.ai MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to fal.ai and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 86 fal.ai actions (47 reads, 27 writes and 12 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the fal.ai credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces fal.ai's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect fal.ai in three steps.

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.

02
Connect fal.ai.
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.

```

```

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.

Top actions

The fal.ai API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 13 of fal.ai's 13 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Governance for fal.ai

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

12 fal.ai actions are destructive. These are all of them:

Delete asset collectionfal_ai.asset_collections.delete
Delete API Keyfal_ai.keys.delete
Revoke API Keyfal_ai.keys.revoke
Delete asset tagfal_ai.asset_tags.delete
Unassign tag from assetfal_ai.asset_tags.unassign
Delete asset entityfal_ai.asset_entities.delete
Delete asset characterfal_ai.asset_characters.delete
Delete Compute Instancefal_ai.compute_instances.delete
Delete request payloadsfal_ai.requests.delete_payloads
Flush Application Queuefal_ai.serverless_apps.flush_queue
Remove asset from collectionfal_ai.asset_collections.remove_asset
Cancel a requestfal_ai.queue.cancel

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.

Cost

What fal.ai costs on actionlake.

Every fal.ai action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call fal.ai 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 fal.ai MCP server, answered.

Is there a fal.ai MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 86 fal.ai actions across asset collections, models, asset characters and asset tags, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by fal.ai.

What do I need to connect fal.ai?

Fal API key: fal.ai dashboard > Keys > Add key (shown once, `[key_id]:[secret]`). The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "fal_ai" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in fal.ai?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 12 fal.ai actions are destructive, including delete asset collection, delete API Key and revoke API Key. 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 fal.ai API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the fal.ai service file: 600 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (45 fal.ai actions can be), which never reaches fal.ai.

What does a fal.ai action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (86 fal.ai actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls fal.ai 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 fal.ai API does it cover?

The fal Model APIs (queue, sync) + Platform API v1 at api.fal.ai. It is built from fal.ai's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 86 actions in 20 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my fal.ai 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 fal.ai 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.
