Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

[](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/?q=io.github.appwrite%2Fmcp)

A Model Context Protocol server for Appwrite. It exposes Appwrite's API — databases, users, functions, teams, storage, and more — as tools your MCP client can call.

Connect to the hosted server at `https://mcp.appwrite.io/` and authenticate through your browser. The first time you connect, your client opens an Appwrite consent screen; approve the scopes and you're connected. There are no keys to copy. The conventional https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp URL is also supported and connects to the same server.

Connect your client

Pick your client below. Each adds the hosted Appwrite Cloud server.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http appwrite https://mcp.appwrite.io/

Then, inside a Claude Code session, run /mcp, select appwrite, and follow the browser prompt to authenticate.

Go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste https://mcp.appwrite.io/. Available on Pro and Max plans; on Team and Enterprise plans only an organization Owner can add custom connectors.

If you don't see that option (free plan, or a Team/Enterprise member), bridge the remote server through stdio instead (requires Node.js). Go to Settings → Developer → Local MCP servers, click Edit Config, and add:

Connect

Built from this server's own package name, version and transport as found in its source — not copied from anyone's documentation, so it cannot drift against a page we do not control. Replace the environment placeholders with a token scoped to the least it needs.

Questions

What is the Appwrite MCP server?

Appwrite’s MCP server. Operating your backend has never been easier.

What tools does Appwrite expose?

5 in total: 4 read-only, 1 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is Appwrite safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.

What credentials does Appwrite need?

It reads APPWRITE_API_KEY, APPWRITE_OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN, APPWRITE_OAUTH_ORGANIZATION_ID, APPWRITE_OAUTH_PROJECT_ENDPOINT, APPWRITE_OAUTH_PROJECT_ID, MCP_OAUTH_SCOPES and OPENAI_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does Appwrite run?

It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on PyPI as mcp-server-appwrite.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (39cdaa9e5501), read on 2026-10-07. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
