Guru MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Guru and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 300 Guru actions (142 reads, 112 writes and 46 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Guru credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Guru'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 Guru 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.

Connect Guru.
Username and secret. 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,

Top actions
The Guru API, shaped for agents.
The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 28 of Guru's 28 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Governance for Guru
Destructive actions wait for a yes.
46 Guru actions are destructive. The first 10:
- Delete a user group
guru.groups.delete - Delete an impersonation token
guru.impersonation_tokens.delete - Delete a card
guru.cards.delete - Delete a webhook
guru.webhooks.delete - Delete folder
guru.folders.delete - Delete a source and everything in it
guru.sources.delete - Archive an answer
guru.answers.archive - Delete an automation plan
guru.chat_plans.delete - Delete a collection
guru.collections.delete - Permanently delete a chat thread
guru.chat_threads.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.

What Guru costs on actionlake.
Every Guru action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call Guru 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 Guru MCP server, answered.
Is there a Guru MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 300 Guru actions across knowledge agents, cards, knowledge agent skills and announcements, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Guru.
What do I need to connect Guru?
Guru username: the email address of the user who owns a user token (read/write), or the collection id for a… and Guru API token. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "guru" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Guru?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 46 Guru actions are destructive, including delete a user group, delete an impersonation token and delete a card. 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 Guru API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Guru service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (136 Guru actions can be), which never reaches Guru.
What does a Guru action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (300 Guru actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Guru 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 Guru API does it cover?
The Guru API v1 (OpenAPI 3.0.1) at api.getguru.com. It is built from Guru's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 300 actions in 58 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Does actionlake keep my Guru 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 Guru 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.
