Remote MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Remote and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 300 Remote actions (165 reads, 121 writes and 14 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Remote credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Remote'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 Remote 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 Remote API, shaped for agents.
The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 20 of Remote's 20 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Destructive actions wait for a yes.
14 Remote actions are destructive. These are all of them:
- Cancel Time Off
remote_com.timeoff.cancel - Delete a Pay Item
remote_com.pay_items.delete - Delete an Incentive
remote_com.incentives.delete - Deletes a Company Manager user
remote_com.company_managers.delete - Delete a Webhook Callback

remote_com.sandbox_contract_amendments.cancel - Terminate contractor of record employment

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 Remote MCP server, answered.
Is there a Remote MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 300 Remote actions across employments, timeoff, companies and company managers, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Remote.
What do I need to connect Remote?
Remote API token: a customer API token from Remote > Company settings > Integrations & API > API tokens (or a Remote…. Plus your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "remote_com" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Remote?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 14 Remote actions are destructive, including cancel Time Off, delete a Pay Item and delete an Incentive. 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 Remote API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Remote service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (165 Remote actions can be), which never reaches Remote.
What does a Remote action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (300 Remote actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Remote 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 Remote API does it cover?
The Remote API 0.1.0 (OpenAPI 3.0.0) at gateway.remote.com by default, or the base URL set when you connect. It is built from Remote's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 300 actions in 160 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Does actionlake keep my Remote 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 Remote 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.
