## Description
AI-native backend-as-a-service platform enabling AI agents to build and manage full-stack applications. Provides Auth, Database (PostgreSQL), Storage, and Functions as production-grade infrastructure, reducing MVP development time from weeks to hours.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Install path detected from listing signals. Uses `npx` (confidence: high):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "insforge-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","@insforge/install"],
    "env": {
      "API_KEY": "",
      "API_BASE_URL": ""
    }
  }
}
```

**Requires environment variables:** `API_KEY`, `API_BASE_URL` — the values above are empty placeholders; fill in real credentials before running (see the repository for what each one is for).

## Documentation

## What InsForge/insforge-mcp does

InsForge/insforge-mcp MCP server lets compatible coding agents work with backend services provided by InsForge. The supported backend areas include authentication, PostgreSQL database functionality, file storage, serverless functions, and LLM-related capabilities. It is intended for agents building or extending full-stack applications rather than for connecting directly to an unrelated database service.

The repository is the MCP component of the broader InsForge project. Installation, API details, usage examples, and the complete configuration guidance are maintained in the main InsForge repository and its documentation.

## How it works

The MCP client starts the package with npx and passes connection settings through environment variables. The server uses the supplied API key to authenticate with InsForge and the API base URL to identify the instance it should contact. If no custom base URL is provided, the documented default is `http://localhost:7130`.

A typical manual configuration registers `@insforge/mcp@latest` as the command package. The same connection model can be configured automatically with the InsForge installer for supported clients. The repository also provides development commands for installing dependencies, running tests, linting, formatting, and building the package.

## Setup and configuration

InsForge/insforge-mcp MCP server requires an InsForge API key. Set `API_KEY` to that value and set `API_BASE_URL` to the InsForge instance URL when the default local address is not appropriate.

The documented installer supports Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and Roo Code. For example, an installation command can specify a client and pass both environment variables:

```bash
npx @insforge/install --client cursor --env API_KEY=your_api_key --env API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:7130
```

Manual setup uses an MCP configuration entry with `npx`, the `-y` flag, and `@insforge/mcp@latest`. Replace the example API key with a real credential. The installer also has a development option for testing a dev version. Consult the InsForge documentation for client-specific configuration and the full setup process.

## Tools and capabilities

The available capability areas described by the project are:

- Authentication for application users
- PostgreSQL-backed database features
- File storage
- Serverless functions
- LLM capabilities

These areas provide the backend building blocks that an agent can use while working on a full-stack application.

## Limitations and notes

The repository README delegates detailed installation instructions, configuration references, API documentation, tool examples, and contribution guidance to the main InsForge repository. It also does not describe deployment behavior, authentication scopes, database schema operations, storage limits, or function runtime details.

The examples use a local InsForge URL, but the configuration accepts a different API base URL for another instance. An API key is required in the shown setup. The project is licensed under Apache License 2.0.
