Model Context Protocol

Connect your AI agent to 90+ APIs

Install the Callio MCP server and give Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, or any MCP-compatible agent instant access to the entire API ecosystem.

How MCP works with Callio

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is how tools like Cursor and Antigravity connect to external capabilities. The editor starts a small MCP server; the AI can call tools that server exposes (instead of you wiring one integration per API).

End-to-end flow

  1. You add the Callio MCP server to your config and set CALLIO_API_KEY.
  2. Cursor / Antigravity launches that server as a subprocess (stdio). It appears under Settings → MCP with three tools.
  3. When you chat, the model can invoke search_apis and get_api_info — they read Callio's public catalog (same data as Browse).
  4. To actually execute an API through Callio's gateway, the model uses call_api. That sends a request to https://callio.dev/api/proxy/… with your key — same as the HTTP proxy in our docs.
  5. For upstream APIs that need your own provider key (OpenAI, SendGrid, etc.), save it once on the API's page on Callio; the proxy attaches it when call_api runs.

Why only three tools?

One tool per vendor would mean hundreds of MCP tools. Callio exposes discover → describe → call so the agent can use any listed API without new MCP releases per provider.

After you edit config

Restart the MCP server (Cursor: Command Palette → MCP restart, or restart the app) so new env vars and keys load. Confirm the server shows a green status and lists all three tools.

Start using APIs

Your agent now has 3 powerful tools. Just ask in natural language:

"Search for email APIs on Callio"
"What endpoints does the SendGrid API have?"
"Get post #1 from JSONPlaceholder through Callio"
"Search for AI companies using Apollo API"

3 tools, unlimited power

search_apis

Discover and browse 90+ APIs by name, category, or description.

get_api_info

Get full details — endpoints, parameters, examples, auth info.

call_api

Execute any API call. Auth, rate limits, and routing all handled.
