Overview

What is Appwrite MCP server?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes Appwrite’s API — databases, users, functions, teams, storage, and more — as tools for any MCP client to call. It’s built for developers who want to manage Appwrite resources through AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, or VS Code.

How to use Appwrite MCP server?

Connect your client to the hosted server at https://mcp.appwrite.io/mcp and authenticate through your browser (no keys to copy). The first connection opens an Appwrite consent screen; approve the scopes and you’re connected. Client-specific setup commands are provided for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code (GitHub Copilot), Codex, OpenCode, and Windsurf. For self-hosted Appwrite instances, run the server locally over stdio with a project API key (see docs/self-hosted.md).
