## About

# Synlake MCP Server

[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@synlake-ai/mcp-server)

[](LICENSE)

**The MCP connector for Synlake** — B2AI infrastructure for autonomous agents. Synlake normalizes AWS, GCP, and Azure into one schema, generates ready-to-run execution kits (Terraform HCL + CLI), and prices them before deploy — so an AI agent can discover, evaluate, and provision cloud infrastructure with zero human intervention.

This repository is the open-source MCP server (a thin stdio ↔ HTTP proxy). The infrastructure intelligence — cross-cloud normalization, the cost engine, and execution-kit generation — runs as a hosted service at `api.synlake.ai`.

## An agent deploys infrastructure — no human in the loop

A coding agent needs a Kubernetes node pool. It doesn't open a cloud console, compare pricing pages, or hand-write Terraform. It asks Synlake, and gets back a deployable answer:

```
Agent → Synlake:  "compute, 4 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM, us-east-1, budget $100/mo"

Synlake → Agent:  best:  gcp · e2-standard-4 · $97.82/mo   (19.5% cheaper than the priciest)
                  also:  aws t3.xlarge $121.47 · azure Standard_B4ms $121.18
                  kit:   { terraform: "resource \"google_compute_instance\"…",
                           cli: "gcloud compute instances create…" }
                  ✓ validated: no public ingress, encryption on, within budget
```

The agent reviews the kit, applies the Terraform, and moves on. Every response is dense, deterministic JSON — built for machine consumption, not dashboards. Synlake tools are **read-only**: they recommend, price, and validate. A human (or the agent's own policy) runs the execution kit.

## Architecture

```

An agent sends an intent. Synlake normalizes options across clouds, ranks them by cost and constraints, generates a deploy-ready execution kit, runs guardrail checks, logs the call, and returns one machine-ready payload. This repo ships the open-source MCP connector (the `AI Agent ↔ Synlake API` edge); the boxes to the right of `Synlake API` run as the hosted service.

## Quickstart

### Hosted (recommended) — MCP over Streamable HTTP

Point any MCP client at the hosted server — three lines, nothing to install:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "synlake": {
      "url": "https://api.synlake.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer sk_synlake_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
```

### Local stdio wrapper (this package)

For clients that speak stdio (e.g. Claude Desktop), run the npm wrapper — it proxies to the same hosted server:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "synlake": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@synlake-ai/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "SYNLAKE_API_KEY": "sk_synlake_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
```

Get a free API key at **[synlake.ai](https://synlake.ai)** (100 calls/month, no card required). The `estimate` endpoint is even callable **without** a key — zero friction to try.

## Tools

| Tool | REST endpoint | Description |
|------|---------------|-------------|
| `synlake_query` | `POST /v1/infrastructure/query` | Full recommendation + execution kit (Terraform + CLI) |
| `synlake_estimate` | `POST /v1/infrastructure/estimate` | Cross-cloud cost comparison — **no API key required** |
| `synlake_validate` | `POST /v1/execution/validate` | Dry-run an execution kit (security + budget checks) |
| `synlake_providers` | `GET /v1/providers` | List supported providers and services |
| `synlake_usage` | `GET /v1/agent/usage` | Your usage, costs, and spending cap |

## Why Synlake

| Agent frameworks    | Via tools   | Partial          | No            | No              | No          |

## Use it from a Claude Managed Agent

Wire Synlake as an `mcp_toolset` — the agent gets all five tools natively, your key stays in an Anthropic vault:

```json
{
  "type": "mcp_toolset",
  "name": "synlake",
  "server": {
    "url": "https://api.synlake.ai/api/mcp",
    "authorization_token": { "vault_secret": "synlake_api_key" }
  }
}
```

See the [MCP quickstart](docs/mcp-quickstart.md) for the Managed Agents API, `ant` CLI, and Agent SDK flows.

## Build from source

```bash
npm install
npm run build       # tsc → dist/ (pure proxy)
SYNLAKE_API_KEY=sk_synlake_... node dist/bin.js
```

`SYNLAKE_API_URL` overrides the remote endpoint (default `https://api.synlake.ai/api/mcp`).

## Pricing

Pay per call. No subscriptions, no commitments. **Free tier:** 100 calls/month, no card required.

| Call type | Price |
|-----------|-------|
| Estimate | $0.01 _(free, no key, IP rate-limited)_ |
| Query (basic) | $0.05 |
| Query (full + Terraform) | $0.10 |
| Validate | $0.05 |
