Appwrite’s MCP server. Operating your backend has never been easier.
Overview
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 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. Pick your client below. Each adds the hosted Appwrite Cloud server. Go to and paste https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp. On the free plan, bridge the remote server through stdio instead (requires Node.js) by editing your config via : Edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project). Edit .vscode/mcp.json (workspace) or your user configuration via the Command Palette → . Edit opencode.json (project) or ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json (global).

Appwrite MCP server
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.
Self-hosted Appwrite
Running your own Appwrite instance? Run the MCP server locally over stdio and
authenticate with a project API key. See docs/self-hosted.md
for per-client setup.
