Artie MCP connector
The Artie connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot and any MCP client check Artie connectors, browse source tables, manage column hashing salts and encryption keys, and start exports, with every action running as the signed-in person and recorded in an audit log.

What teams do with Artie through Elaichi
Ask in plain English. Each person’s AI can do only what they’re allowed to, and every action it takes in Artie is logged.
-
Data engineering
Check a source before building a pipeline
Ping a new Postgres, Oracle or DynamoDB connector in Artie and list its databases, schemas and tables so you know it is reachable before anyone sets up replication.
-
Analytics
Find where a table actually lives
Search the Artie data catalog for the orders or customers table, pull its column detail, and answer the question without opening three separate consoles.
-
Security
Review how sensitive columns are masked
List every column hashing salt and encryption key in Artie, then preview how a salt hashes a field before that data lands in the warehouse.
-
Platform
Stand up a new Snowflake destination
Create the Snowflake warehouse, database and schema through Artie, then confirm the connector can reach it, all from the same conversation.
-
Data engineering
Clean up after a database cutover
List the remaining Postgres publications, drop the stale replication slot, and update the Artie connector settings once the migration is finished.
-
Operations
Start an export when a team asks
Kick off a DynamoDB export in Artie the moment a downstream team needs a fresh copy, and check the connector afterward to confirm it went through.
Try asking
- “Which Artie connectors pull tables from the warehouse database?”

Artie tools for your AI agents
59 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect Artie, governed by the same roles, restrictions, and audit log as everything else in Elaichi.
No tools match your search.
Questions, answered
How do I connect Artie to Claude?
Open Elaichi, choose Artie from the catalog, and paste in your Artie API key when prompted. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in with your Elaichi account and Artie is ready to use.
Does Artie work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Artie is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Artie once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Artie data?
An agent can look up an Artie connector, ping it to see whether it is reachable, and list the databases, schemas, tables and column detail behind it. It can search the Artie data catalog, list and preview column hashing salts, list encryption keys, create Snowflake warehouses, databases and schemas, start a DynamoDB export, and manage Postgres publications and replication slots. Because Artie exposes a lot of actions, short concrete asks such as "list the tables in the billing connector" work better than long paragraphs.
Does connecting Artie give the AI access to every connector and key in my workspace?
No. Every call to Artie runs with the access of the person who signed in, so the agent sees the connectors, salts and encryption keys that person's Artie API key can already see, and nothing more. Elaichi can narrow that access further with restrictions, but it never widens it.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Artie?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can restrict deleting an Artie connector, dropping a replication slot or removing a hashing salt while still allowing lookups and catalog searches. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Microsoft Copilot cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.
What happens to an Artie connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Artie at once, across every client they used. If they shared the Artie connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. Disconnecting Artie once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot and every other client at the same time.
Does the Artie MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Artie is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.
Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Artie?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Artie. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Artie call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Artie?
Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Artie: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
