Archie MCP

The Archie MCP is a platform-wide connector. You sign in with your Archie account and an assistant like Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT can help you manage Archie itself — browse your projects, organizations, and environments, explore any project’s API, and run administrative actions. It is distinct from the per-project MCP Server: the Archie MCP spans everything your account can reach and includes management tools; the MCP Server is scoped to one project and is data-only.

Connect it

The Archie MCP is added as a custom connector by URL and authenticates with your Archie account. Connection URL

https://mcp.services.archie.com/mcp

Add the connector

In your assistant, open its connectors settings (for example, Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector in Claude) and paste the connection URL above.

A window opens — sign in with your Archie account and approve access.

Ask

The assistant can now help you navigate and manage your projects and organizations.

For Claude Code (the CLI), add it from your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http archie https://mcp.services.archie.com/mcp

Authentication

The Archie MCP authenticates with OAuth 2.1. When you add the connector, your assistant opens a browser window where you sign in with your Archie account; the assistant then holds a token and calls the server on your behalf. There is no key to paste.

The Archie MCP acts with your platform access — the same projects, organizations, and permissions you have when you sign in to Archie. It doesn’t grant new access. Sharing the connector doesn’t share your session: each person signs in as themselves.

Tools

Because the Archie MCP is platform-wide, it exposes the full tool set — account navigation, API exploration, data, and management — not just the data-only floor the MCP Server exposes. Clients group them as read-only or write. Account & platform — get your bearings across Archie:

Tool	Type	What it does
`whoami`	Read	Returns your identity and what you can access.
`list_projects`	Read	Lists your projects.
`list_organizations`	Read	Lists your organizations.
`list_environments`	Read	Lists a project’s environments.

API & data — explore a project’s schema and work with its data:

Tool	Type	What it does
`list_operations`	Read	Lists the queries and mutations in a project’s GraphQL API.
`get_field_details`	Read	Returns the fields and arguments of a type.
`list_database_objects`	Read	Lists tables, views, and enums in a project.
`get_database_object`	Read	Returns the definition of a specific database object.
`semantic_search`	Read	Searches data by meaning, when vector search is enabled.
`read_archie_docs`	Read	Looks up Archie product documentation.
`execute_graphql_operation`	Write	Runs a GraphQL query or mutation against a project.
`get_context` / `set_context`	Read / Write	Read and set the current project and environment scope.

Management — administrative actions on a project:

Tool	Type	What it does
`manage_api_keys`	Write	Create and delete project API keys.
`manage_roles`	Write	Create and delete roles.
`manage_authentication`	Write	Enable, update, and disable authentication providers.
`manage_file_storage`	Write	Configure file storage.
`manage_notifications`	Write	Enable and disable notifications.

The management tools make real changes to your project (keys, roles, authentication, storage). Keep your assistant’s write approvals on so a write is confirmed before it runs. Every action is still bounded by your own platform access — the Archie MCP can never do more than you can.

Archie MCP vs. MCP Server

	Archie MCP	MCP Server
Scope	Your whole account — all projects and organizations	One project
Sign-in	Your Archie account (OAuth)	The project’s sign-in or a project API key
Tools	Full set — account, API, data, management	Data-only floor
Use it to	Manage the platform	Work with a project’s data

To connect an assistant to a single project’s data — for your project’s own users and agents — enable and use the MCP Server instead.
