Pendo MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Pendo and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 61 Pendo actions (36 reads, 17 writes and 8 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Pendo credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Pendo'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 Pendo 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.

Top actions
The Pendo API, shaped for agents.
The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 14 of Pendo's 16 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Governance for Pendo
Destructive actions wait for a yes.
8 Pendo actions are destructive. These are all of them:
- Delete a segment
pendo.segments.delete - Remove a visitor from a segment
pendo.segments.remove_visitor - Delete a metadata field
pendo.metadata.delete_field - Delete feedback items
pendo.feedback.delete - Reset a staged Guide
pendo.guides.reset_staged - Reset all staged Guides
pendo.guides.reset_all_staged - Bulk delete accounts (GDPR/CCPA)
pendo.bulk_deletions.delete_accounts - Bulk delete visitors (GDPR/CCPA)
pendo.bulk_deletions.delete_visitors
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 Pendo costs on actionlake.
Every Pendo action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call Pendo 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 Pendo MCP server, answered.
Is there a Pendo MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 61 Pendo actions across segments, guides, metadata and bulk deletions, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Pendo.
What do I need to connect Pendo?
Pendo integration key. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "pendo" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Pendo?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 8 Pendo actions are destructive, including delete a segment, remove a visitor from a segment and delete a metadata field. 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 Pendo API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Pendo service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (35 Pendo actions can be), which never reaches Pendo.
What does a Pendo action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (61 Pendo actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Pendo 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 Pendo API does it cover?
The Pendo Engage API v1 (Postman collection 16265887) at your Pendo instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Pendo's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 61 actions in 16 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Does actionlake keep my Pendo 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 Pendo 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.
