Sage Business Cloud Accounting MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Sage Business Cloud Accounting and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 2 Sage Business Cloud Accounting actions (2 reads and 0 writes) and holds the Sage Business Cloud Accounting credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Sage Business Cloud Accounting's limits and records every call. Connecting Sage Business Cloud Accounting needs your own Sage Business Cloud Accounting OAuth app and one admin sign-in.
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.

Governance for Sage Business Cloud Accounting
Every write can wait for a yes.
None of Sage Business Cloud Accounting's actions is destructive. A key can still be held to reads, capped, and set so a person confirms every write.
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 Sage Business Cloud Accounting MCP server, answered.
Is there a Sage Business Cloud Accounting MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 2 Sage Business Cloud Accounting actions, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Sage Business Cloud Accounting.
What do I need to connect Sage Business Cloud Accounting?
Your own Sage Business Cloud Accounting OAuth app, registered with Sage Business Cloud Accounting (its client id and client secret), and the access and refresh tokens from one admin sign-in. actionlake has no Sage Business Cloud Accounting app of its own, so this is not a one-step consent. actionlake renews the access token as it expires. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "sage_business_cloud" } lists exactly what to paste.
Will an AI agent use up my Sage Business Cloud Accounting API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Sage Business Cloud Accounting service file: 100 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (2 Sage Business Cloud Accounting actions can be), which never reaches Sage Business Cloud Accounting.
What does a Sage Business Cloud Accounting action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (2 Sage Business Cloud Accounting actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Sage Business Cloud Accounting 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 Sage Business Cloud Accounting API does it cover?
The Sage Business Cloud Accounting API 3.1 at api.accounting.sage.com/v3.1. It is built from Sage Business Cloud Accounting's documentation as read on 8 September 2026. 2 actions in 1 area, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Does actionlake keep my Sage Business Cloud Accounting data, and where?
actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, 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 Sage Business Cloud Accounting 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.
