What it does
Cloudbase MCP is an agent skill from TencentCloudBase/CloudBase-AI-Toolkit. CloudBase MCP reference. Use when connecting local or remote MCP, calling tools from the shell with mcporter, reading tool schemas, choosing the domestic or international endpoint, setting site, region, cloud mode, or plugin flags, or contributing a fix to the open-source MCP server, skills, or CLI.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `LICENSE.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Backend for AI coding agents on CloudBase — database, auth, functions via Plugin, Skills & MCP. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Connecting local
- Calling tools from the shell with mcporter
- Reading tool schemas
- Choosing the domestic
Example prompts
- “/cloudbase-mcp”
Requirements
- Node.js
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5360dde. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npxpnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
tcb-api.cloud.tencent.comtcb-api.tencentcloud.com
Also links to:
cnb.cool
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Cloudbase MCP loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 584 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

The server source is mcp/ in that repo. The package name is @cloudbase/cloudbase-mcp.
Sibling skills (local only)
Sibling CloudBase skills ship beside this skill. Use local relative paths such as ../cloudbase-cli/SKILL.md.
If a referenced sibling skill file is missing from this environment, ask the user to install the full CloudBase plugin (or the missing skill). Do not HTTP-fetch remote skill or protocol markdown into the agent context.
- MCP setup, mcporter commands, and auth examples:
../cloudbase/references/mcp-setup.md - CLI fallback when MCP tools are not loaded:
../cloudbase-cli/SKILL.md - MCP vs CLI decision tree:
../cloudbase/references/tooling-fallback.md
When to use
- The user is connecting MCP, or choosing local versus remote.
- The user or the agent calls CloudBase tools from the shell with mcporter, or needs a tool schema before calling.
- The user needs the site, region, cloud-mode, or plugin switches that already exist.
- A bug is in this repo's MCP server, skills, or CLI, and the fix should be a pull request.
Do not use this for
- Creating or changing cloud resources. Use the matching domain skill, or
../cloudbase-cli/SKILL.mdwhen MCP tools are not loaded. - Cloud platform, permission, or account problems that are not code in this repo. Those go to an issue, not a pull request.
Connection
| Mode | Address |
|---|---|
| Remote, domestic | https://tcb-api.cloud.tencent.com/mcp/v1 |
| Remote, international | https://tcb-api.tencentcloud.com/mcp/v1 |
| Local | npx @cloudbase/cloudbase-mcp@latest (Node.js 18.15+) |
The hostname decides the site. Remote URLs do not take a site query parameter.
- Interactive clients: put only the URL in the IDE config. The IDE opens a browser for login. This is the usual path.
- CI: add
env_idand headersX-TencentCloud-SecretId/X-TencentCloud-SecretKey. - Local stdio for the international site:
TCB_SITE=intlandTCB_REGION=ap-singapore.
Remote mode cannot upload local files or download templates. The international site does not expose NoSQL tools.
Calling tools with mcporter
When this session has no native MCP tools, use mcporter. The command list and the auth examples live in ../cloudbase/references/mcp-setup.md. Read that file before login, environment binding, or manageEnv.
Check whether the server is configured:
npx mcporter list | grep cloudbaseIf it is missing, add a stdio server named cloudbase in config/mcporter.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cloudbase": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@cloudbase/cloudbase-mcp@latest"],
"description": "CloudBase MCP",
"lifecycle": "keep-alive"
}
}
}Read the schema before the first call. describe without --all-parameters omits parameters.
npx mcporter describe cloudbase --all-parameters
npx mcporter list cloudbase --schemaCall a tool with server.tool and key=value arguments:
npx mcporter call cloudbase.queryEnv action=list --output jsonDo not put a Secret ID, Secret Key, or environment ID into mcporter.json. Login stays on cloudbase.auth or tcb login, as written in mcp-setup.md.

Environment
| Name | Effect |
|---|---|
TCB_SITE | domestic or intl. ap-singapore exists on both sites; a domestic Singapore environment must set TCB_SITE=domestic. |
TCB_REGION | API region, such as ap-shanghai or ap-singapore. |
CLOUDBASE_MCP_CLOUD_MODE or MCP_CLOUD_MODE | true disables local file and process tools for a self-hosted caller. |
CLOUDBASE_MCP_PLUGINS_ENABLED / CLOUDBASE_MCP_PLUGINS_DISABLED | Comma-separated plugin names for a local server. |
enable_plugins / disable_plugins | The same switch on a remote URL, comma-separated. |
Plugin names are the ones in mcp/src/server.ts (env, database, functions, hosting, storage, and the rest). A local server and a hosted remote server enable the same default set; turn one off for a given caller with disable_plugins on the remote URL or CLOUDBASE_MCP_PLUGINS_DISABLED on a local server.
