ServiceM8 MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to ServiceM8 and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 225 ServiceM8 actions (100 reads, 86 writes and 39 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the ServiceM8 credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces ServiceM8's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect ServiceM8 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.
https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
02
Connect ServiceM8.
API key. 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_keyServiceM8 API key: in ServiceM8 go to Settings > API Keys and generate a key
```
account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "servicem8" }
# free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
```

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.

Top actions

The ServiceM8 API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 74 of ServiceM8's 74 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

ServiceM8, joined to the rest of your business.

One ask fetches from ServiceM8 and another system, joins the rows on the same customer on our side, and hands your agent the answer, not every row.

Example. Run it through check first: it validates the steps and prices them, and it is free.

Governance for ServiceM8

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

39 ServiceM8 actions are destructive. The first 10:

Delete a Company Contactservicem8.company_contacts.delete
Delete a Clientservicem8.companies.delete
Delete a Taskservicem8.tasks.delete
Delete an Assetservicem8.assets.delete
Delete a Supplierservicem8.suppliers.delete
Delete a Staff Memberservicem8.staff.delete
Delete a Job Paymentservicem8.job_payments.delete
Delete an Asset Typeservicem8.asset_types.delete
Delete a Formservicem8.forms.delete
Delete a Form Responseservicem8.form_responses.delete

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.

Cost

What ServiceM8 costs on actionlake.

Every ServiceM8 action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call ServiceM8 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 ServiceM8 MCP server, answered.

Is there a ServiceM8 MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 225 ServiceM8 actions across inbox messages, allocation windows, asset type fields and asset types, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by ServiceM8.

What do I need to connect ServiceM8?

ServiceM8 API key: in ServiceM8 go to Settings > API Keys and generate a key. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "servicem8" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in ServiceM8?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 39 ServiceM8 actions are destructive, including delete a Company Contact, delete a Client and delete a Task. 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 ServiceM8 API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the ServiceM8 service file: 180 calls a minute and 20,000 a day per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (98 ServiceM8 actions can be), which never reaches ServiceM8.

What does a ServiceM8 action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (225 ServiceM8 actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls ServiceM8 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 ServiceM8 API does it cover?

The ServiceM8 REST API 1.0 (OpenAPI 3.1, per-operation definitions from developer.servicem8.com) at api.servicem8.com. It is built from ServiceM8's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 225 actions in 54 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Can I combine ServiceM8 with my other systems?

Yes. ask joins ServiceM8 to ConnectWise PSA or NetSuite on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. ServiceM8 maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

Does actionlake keep my ServiceM8 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 ServiceM8 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.
