Replicate MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Replicate and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 33 Replicate actions (19 reads, 8 writes and 6 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Replicate credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Replicate'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 Replicate 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 Replicate.

    Bearer token. 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.

    • api_tokenReplicate API token (starts with r8_), from replicate.com/account/api-tokens
    account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "replicate" }
    # 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: "replicate.collections.list" }# list collections of models · read · 1 upstream callcheck { action: "replicate.models.create", input: { … } }# free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent

Top actions

The Replicate API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 8 of Replicate's 8 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Try it

Prompts to paste into Claude.

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

  1. Readread

    List collections of models in Replicate and tell me what stands out.

    callsreplicate.collections.list

  2. Writewrite

    Create a model in Replicate. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsreplicate.models.create

Governance for Replicate

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

6 Replicate actions are destructive. These are all of them:

  • Delete a modelreplicate.models.delete
  • Delete a filereplicate.files.delete
  • Delete a deploymentreplicate.deployments.delete
  • Delete a model versionreplicate.model_versions.delete
  • Cancel a trainingreplicate.trainings.cancel
  • Cancel a predictionreplicate.predictions.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.

doreplicate.models.deleteconfirm_policy: human

Delete a model?

Cost

What Replicate costs on actionlake.

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

Is there a Replicate MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 33 Replicate actions across deployments, models, predictions and trainings, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Replicate.

What do I need to connect Replicate?

Replicate API token (starts with r8_), from replicate.com/account/api-tokens. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "replicate" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Replicate?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 6 Replicate actions are destructive, including delete a model, delete a file and delete a deployment. 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 Replicate API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Replicate service file: 3,000 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (18 Replicate actions can be), which never reaches Replicate.

What does a Replicate action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (8 Replicate actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Replicate 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 Replicate API does it cover?

The Replicate HTTP API v1 (OpenAPI 1.0.0-a1) at api.replicate.com. It is built from Replicate's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 33 actions in 14 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my Replicate 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 Replicate 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.
