MCP Server

Expose CloudThinker’s cloud-ops tools and data to external MCP-compatible AI clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf

Preview — The CloudThinker MCP server is in early access. The tool surface and transport options may change before general availability. Contact us to join the preview.

CloudThinker can act as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, letting any MCP-compatible AI client call CloudThinker tools and read CloudThinker data using your workspace’s authenticated context.

This is the inverse of the existing MCP connection, which lets CloudThinker agents call your external MCP servers.

What it enables

Capability	Description
Cloud Ops in Your IDE	Query AWS, GCP, Azure inventory and costs from Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any MCP client
Use Your Connections	Reach databases, Kubernetes clusters, and observability tools you already connected to CloudThinker
Run Skills Remotely	Invoke your workspace skills from any MCP-compatible host
Shared Context	Read recommendations, dashboards, and incident memory the same way the web console does

---

Exposed tools

The MCP server surfaces a curated subset of agent capabilities:

Tool family	What it does
resources.*	Query the unified resource inventory and topology
recommendations.*	List, accept, dismiss, or comment on optimization recommendations
costs.*	Run cost queries and forecasts across cloud accounts
incidents.*	Create incidents, attach signals, and read RCA results
dashboards.*	Read built-in and custom dashboards
skills.*	Execute workspace skills with parameters

The exact tool list is exposed through MCP discovery — clients see whatever the workspace API key is permitted to use.

Transports

Transport	Best For
HTTP + SSE	Cloud-hosted clients, remote agents, and team-shared setups
stdio	Local IDEs and desktop apps (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf) launched via a local proxy

---

Authentication

The MCP server authenticates with the same workspace API keys used by the REST API. The key is scoped to a single workspace and inherits the role of the issuing member.
