Sophos Central MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Sophos Central and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 415 Sophos Central actions (199 reads, 147 writes and 69 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Sophos Central credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Sophos Central'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.

Top actions
The Sophos Central API, shaped for agents.
The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 47 of Sophos Central's 49 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Questions
The Sophos Central MCP server, answered.
Is there a Sophos Central MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 415 Sophos Central actions across endpoint, email, mobile and common, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Sophos Central.
What do I need to connect Sophos Central?
Sophos Central API client ID and Sophos Central API client secret (shown once when the credential is created). actionlake finds base url, tenant id, whoami id and whoami type for you when you connect. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "sophos_central" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Sophos Central?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 69 Sophos Central actions are destructive, including delete tenant user by ID, delete tenant user group by ID and delete tenant role by ID. 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 Sophos Central API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Sophos Central service file: 10 calls a second and 100 a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (196 Sophos Central actions can be), which never reaches Sophos Central.
What does a Sophos Central action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (415 Sophos Central actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Sophos Central 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 Sophos Central API does it cover?
The Sophos Central — endpoints, alerts, policies, cases, XDR and Live Discover queries, email, firewall, mobile and partner/organization management API Sophos Central REST APIs (developer.sophos.com OpenAPI 3.0 specs, fetched 2026-10-22) at your Sophos Central instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting. It is built from Sophos Central's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 415 actions in 24 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Can I combine Sophos Central with my other systems?
Yes. ask joins Sophos Central to NetSuite or HubSpot CRM on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Sophos Central maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.
Does actionlake keep my Sophos Central 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 Sophos Central 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.
