About Cloudgate Builder Mcp Server
Cloudgate Builder Mcp Server is a hosted MCP server for building and managing Cloudgate workflow APIs from compatible AI clients. It exposes workflow components through remote HTTP and uses OAuth sign-in scoped to each user's account.

- 01Create Cloudgate controllers and actions from an MCP client
- 02Build workflow graphs and databases
- 03Publish and manage REST APIs
MCP support
The hosted server at api.cloudgate.dev connects to MCP clients over streamable HTTP and OAuth. It exposes tools for managing Cloudgate workflow APIs.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

From the project READMECloudgate MCP
Build and manage Cloudgate workflow-APIs — controllers, actions, workflow graphs, and databases — from any MCP-compatible AI client, including Claude, OpenAI Codex, and others.
Cloudgate runs a hosted, remote MCP server at api.cloudgate.dev. It speaks the standard
Model Context Protocol over streamable HTTP and authenticates each user with OAuth, so any
client that supports remote MCP servers can connect. This repo also packages the server as a
ready-to-install Claude plugin for convenience.
- MCP server URL:
https://api.cloudgate.dev/mcp/workflow - Registry: listed in the official MCP Registry as
dev.cloudgate/workflow
Connect
Claude (Cowork / Desktop / Web)
- Open Customize → Plugins.
- In Personal plugins, click + → Add marketplace.
- Choose Add from a repository and enter this repo:
https://github.com/cloudgatedevs/mcp - Install cloudgate-builder from the marketplace.
- Start a chat and ask to list your Cloudgate controllers — you'll be sent to
hub.cloudgate.devto sign in, then the tools become available.
Claude Code
claude plugin marketplace add cloudgatedevs/mcp
claude plugin install cloudgate-builder@cloudgate-app-templates
OpenAI Codex
Add the remote server to ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.cloudgate]
url = "https://api.cloudgate.dev/mcp/workflow"
Then authenticate:
codex mcp login cloudgate
Other MCP clients
Any client that supports remote (streamable HTTP) MCP servers can connect directly to
https://api.cloudgate.dev/mcp/workflow and complete the OAuth sign-in.
The packaged plugin uses native HTTP and requires a client with remote MCP OAuth support.
It does not launch Node.js or mcp-remote. The previously unpinned bridge could update
independently of the plugin; version 0.10.0 drops the authorization callback issuer when
calling its SDK. Do not replace this configuration with an unpinned bridge command.
Authentication
The Cloudgate MCP server uses OAuth 2.1 (authorization code + PKCE). Each user signs in as themselves; every MCP call is scoped to that user's tenant and account. No tokens or secrets are stored in this repository.
What's in this repo
The hosted server works on its own with any MCP client. This repo additionally ships the
cloudgate-builder Claude plugin, which bundles the connection config plus a
cloudgate-build skill — a playbook that guides the model through creating controllers,
actions, workflow graphs, and databases correctly.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
