Appwrite MCP server

Appwrite MCP server

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.appwrite/mcp -->

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.

Claude Desktop

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:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appwrite": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop; the server appears under Local MCP servers and a browser window opens to authenticate.

Cursor

Edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appwrite": {
      "url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"
    }
  }
}

Cursor prompts you to log in through the browser; the server then shows up under Settings → MCP with its tools enabled.

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Edit .vscode/mcp.json (workspace) or your user configuration via the Command Palette → MCP: Open User Configuration.

{
  "servers": {
    "appwrite": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Edit ~/.codex/config.toml.

[mcp_servers.appwrite]
url = "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"

Then authenticate from the terminal:

codex mcp login appwrite

In the Codex GUI, you can instead add the server from the MCP settings — set the URL to https://mcp.appwrite.io/ and leave the token and header fields empty (authentication happens through the browser):

OpenCode

Edit opencode.json (project) or ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json (global).

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "appwrite": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/",
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
