Nextcloud MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Nextcloud and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 216 Nextcloud actions (109 reads, 68 writes and 39 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Nextcloud credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Nextcloud'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 Nextcloud 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 Nextcloud.

    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.

    • usernameNextcloud login name (the user id, not the display name)
    • app_passwordNextcloud app password
    • hostWhere your Nextcloud lives: your host
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "nextcloud" }
# 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: "nextcloud.files_sharing.shareapi.get_shares" }# get shares of the current user · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "nextcloud.notifications.api.self_test_push", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Prompts to paste into Claude.

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

  1. Readread

    List the Nextcloud groups and how many members each one has.

    callsnextcloud.provisioning_api.groups.get_groups_details

  2. Writewrite

    Send a test notification to push registered mobile apps in Nextcloud. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

Governance for Nextcloud

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

39 Nextcloud actions are destructive. The first 10:

  • Unshare a remote sharenextcloud.files_sharing.remote.unshare
  • Disable an appnextcloud.provisioning_api.apps.disable
  • Remove a device from push notificationsnextcloud.notifications.push.remove_device
  • Decline a remote sharenextcloud.files_sharing.remote.decline_share
  • Delete a usernextcloud.provisioning_api.users.delete_user
  • Delete a sharenextcloud.files_sharing.shareapi.delete_share
  • Disable a usernextcloud.provisioning_api.users.disable_user
  • Delete a groupnextcloud.provisioning_api.groups.delete_group
  • Make a user a subadmin of a groupnextcloud.provisioning_api.users.add_sub_admin
  • Clear the message of the current usernextcloud.user_status.user_status.clear_message

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 Nextcloud MCP server, answered.

Is there a Nextcloud MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 216 Nextcloud actions across core, provisioning API, files sharing and files, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Nextcloud.

What do I need to connect Nextcloud?

Nextcloud login name (the user id, not the display name) and Nextcloud app password. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "nextcloud" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Nextcloud?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 39 Nextcloud actions are destructive, including unshare a remote share, disable an app and remove a device from push notifications. 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 Nextcloud API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Nextcloud service file: 300 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (106 Nextcloud actions can be), which never reaches Nextcloud.

What does a Nextcloud action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (216 Nextcloud actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Nextcloud 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 Nextcloud API does it cover?

The Nextcloud Hub (self-hosted file sync, sharing and collaboration) API Nextcloud server 33 OCS and app REST APIs (OpenAPI 3.0 published in nextcloud/server v33.0.10 and nextcloud/notifications stable33) at your Nextcloud instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Nextcloud's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 216 actions in 18 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Nextcloud 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 Nextcloud 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.
