title: "Introducing Rivet MCP"
description: "Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or VS Code to Rivet to list actors, call actions, and open the Actor Inspector from your AI client."
---

Rivet MCP lets your AI client work with your Rivet Actors. Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or VS Code to `https://mcp.rivet.dev/mcp`, approve the Rivet sign-in, and ask about your actors in plain language.

## Supported Clients

- Claude Code
- Codex
- Cursor
- Gemini CLI
- VS Code

Setup steps for each client are in the [Rivet MCP documentation](/docs/mcp/).

## What You Can Ask

- **Find actors**: "Which chat rooms are still awake?"
- **Call actions**: "What has Acme been saying?"
- **Inspect actors**: "Open the Actor Inspector for chat-room · acme." The dashboard's actor view opens inside the conversation, with State, Connections, Queue, Workflow, and Database tabs.
- **Manage pools**: read and update the [Rivet Compute](/cloud/docs/compute/) deployment that hosts a namespace's actors.
- **Retrieve compute metrics**: check usage for a deployment.
- **List and retrieve images**: see the Docker images available to run.

## Access

Every call goes through Rivet with the access you approved at sign-in. Your credentials never reach the model. To limit a connection to one organization, project, or namespace, add `?organization=ORG&project=PROJECT&namespace=NS` to the endpoint.
