MCP server

Let Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients read your databases, backups, and usage. Clients sign in with OAuth; nothing to paste.

claude mcp add --transport http backupd https://api.backupd.dev/mcp

The MCP server

Add backupd to any MCP client. It signs in with OAuth, so there is no key to paste, and it can only read: workspaces, databases, backups and usage.

Terminal

$ claude mcp add --transport http backupd https://api.backupd.dev/mcp
Added HTTP MCP server backupd

# In Claude: "Which databases failed a restore test this week?"
# Tools: list_workspaces, list_databases, list_backups, get_usage

API keys

Create a key in Settings → API & MCP. Keys belong to you and inherit your access to the workspace, so revoking your access revokes them too.
