Verdict Summary: Choose Anythink Cli if you need specialized Cloud Platforms tools running via a local process. Choose Edgeone Pages MCP if your workspace requires Cloud Platforms integration with local subprocess execution. Both servers can be configured concurrently in your client's mcpServers manifest.
Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
Choose Anythink Cli when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Cloud Platforms domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Build and run a complete backend from your agent on the Anythink platform: relational data with row-/field-level security, full-text + semantic + geo search, RBAC + BYOK, a workflow/automation engine, a growth & retention engine (email, actionable push, promotions, per-user referral codes + rewards, points/credits), payments + marketplace billing, and a growing catalog of integrations (Claude, OpenAI, Slack, Google, GitHub…) — driven through one CLI-backed MCP tool. Install with npx -y @anythink-cloud/mcp.
An MCP service for deploying HTML content to EdgeOne Pages and obtaining a publicly accessible URL.
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Anythink Cli Tools (16)
config_use
Switch the active project profile that the 'cli' tool's commands operate against. Use this to move between already-connected projects without re-authenticating. The profile must already exist (created by 'projects_use' or 'login_direct'); run 'config_show' to see available profile names. Returns confirmation, or an error if the profile does not exist.
projects_delete
Permanently delete a project and tear down its backend instance, including its database and stored data. This is destructive and irreversible — always confirm with the user first, and prefer matching by a specific id over a short prefix to avoid removing the wrong project. Requires an active billing account (set one with 'accounts_use'). Returns the deleted project's name and id on success.
login_direct
Store credentials directly for a project (bypasses billing login). Use this when you already have an org ID and API key or JWT token.
projects_use
Connect to a project and save it as the active profile so the 'cli' tool's data, entities, users, and other commands target it. Resolves the project, then either stores the API key you pass or exchanges a transfer token for project-scoped credentials automatically. Requires an active billing account (set one with 'accounts_use'); the project must be Active (see 'projects_list'). Returns the saved profile name, org id, API URL, and auth method.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Anythink Cli is categorized under Cloud Platforms and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Edgeone Pages MCP belongs to Cloud Platforms using local stdio subprocess. Select Anythink Cli when you need capabilities focused on cloud platforms and Edgeone Pages MCP when you require tools for cloud platforms.
Remove the saved credentials for a project profile from local CLI config. Use this to disconnect from a project or clear a stale token; it deletes only the stored profile locally and does not revoke the token server-side or affect the project. Omit the profile to remove the currently active one. Run 'config_show' to see profile names.
signup
Register a brand-new Anythink platform account with email and password. Use this only when the user has no account yet; if they already have one, use 'login' instead. This creates the top-level user identity — it does not create a billing account or project (do that with 'accounts_create' and 'projects_create' after logging in). On success the user may need to click an email confirmation link before 'login' works; tell them to confirm, then call 'login'.
accounts_create
Create a new billing account (organization) to hold projects and payment details. Requires a prior platform login (use the 'login' tool first). The new account is automatically set as the active account, so subsequent 'projects_create' / 'projects_list' calls target it without further setup. Returns the new account's id and name. Most users need only one account — call 'accounts_list' first to check whether a suitable one already exists.
config_remove
Delete a saved project profile from the local CLI configuration. Removes only the locally stored credentials and settings — it does not delete the project or revoke tokens server-side (to remove the project itself, use 'projects_delete'). Run 'config_show' to see profile names. Returns confirmation, or a not-found message.
projects_list
List the projects (provisioned backend instances) in a billing account. Requires platform login and an active billing account (set one with 'accounts_use'). Returns each project's id, name, description, region, org id, status (Initializing/Provisioning/Active/Suspended/Terminated/Error), API URL, and creation date. Use this to find a project's id before connecting with 'projects_use' or removing it with 'projects_delete'.
login
Log in to the Anythink platform with email and password. Returns a session token used for account and project management. For Google sign-in, use the 'login_google' tool.
accounts_use
Set the active billing account that project commands operate on. Call this after 'login' when you belong to more than one account, before using 'projects_list', 'projects_create', or 'projects_use'. Accepts a full account UUID or a unique prefix; run 'accounts_list' to see valid ids. Returns the resolved account name and id, or an error if no account matches.
login_google
Sign in to the Anythink platform with Google. Opens the user's browser to Google's consent screen and waits for them to approve, then stores the session token. The browser step must be completed by the user; everything before and after is tool-driven. This does NOT pick a billing account or project — after it returns, call 'accounts_list' then 'accounts_use', and 'projects_list' then 'projects_use'. Needs a local browser, so it only works over stdio (not the hosted HTTP server).

Edgeone Pages MCP Tools (2)
deploy_folder
Deploy a folder containing web assets to EdgeOne Pages. Supports built projects (from build tools like Vite, Webpack, etc.), simple static file projects (HTML, CSS, JS files), and NextJS full-stack projects. Returns: deployment URL and project metadata.
IMPORTANT RULES:
1. This is the ONLY deployment method for EdgeOne Pages/Makers. Do NOT fallback to other deployment tools (cloudstudio, vercel, netlify, etc.) if this tool fails. Instead, report the error to the user and suggest fixes based on the error message.
2. The projectName parameter should be a meaningful name describing the project (e.g. "my-blog", "todo-app", "ai-chat-demo"). Do NOT use date-based directory names or random strings as project names. Generate a descriptive name based on the project's purpose or content.
3. After deployment succeeds, your response MUST start with: "🎉 部署成功,页面已上线至 EdgeOne Makers". Then display the "url" field from the response EXACTLY as-is, character for character. Do NOT modify, truncate, or strip any part of the URL (especially query parameters like ?eo_token=...&eo_time=...). Without the full query string the page returns 401. The URL must be shown as a complete clickable link — never shorten it, never show just the domain. Do NOT open local HTML files with file:// protocol as preview.
4. If the user is not logged in, a browser login page will open automatically. No need to ask about region — the login page handles site selection internally.
5. NEVER open the deployment URL in the built-in browser/webview. The built-in browser cannot handle SSO redirects (302). Always show the URL as a clickable text link for the user to open in their system browser manually.
account_info
Get the current EdgeOne Makers login status and account information. Use when the user asks about their login status, account info, who they are logged in as, or wants to check their EdgeOne account. Returns account name, ID, and login type.
