Codefresh MCP connector

The Codefresh connector brings Codefresh accounts, users, access rules and analytics reports to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and the Elaichi Agent, so each person can ask questions and make changes under their own Codefresh access.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Codefresh to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Codefresh once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Codefresh.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Codefresh API key. One person generates a token in Codefresh and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

From answering questions to doing the work

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

A schedule runs Codefresh work, you approve it.

Analytics reports are fetched, grouped, drafted into a digest, approved, then posted back to Codefresh.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Codefresh to Claude?

Connect Codefresh in Elaichi first: paste a Codefresh API key when asked, and the connection is live. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp as the endpoint. There is no OAuth application to register in Codefresh and no client ID or secret to generate.

Does Codefresh work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Codefresh is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Codefresh once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Codefresh data?

It can list and explain Codefresh access rules and tags rules, add or update users and admins, resend invites, read analytics reports, and show which GitHub Actions are set up. You ask in plain language, and short concrete asks like "list every Codefresh admin" work better than long paragraphs. Anything it changes shows up in the audit log under your name.

Does connecting Codefresh give the AI everything in my Codefresh account?

No. Every call runs inside the Codefresh access of the person who signed in, so the agent sees and changes only what that person already could. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions, and it never widens it.

Can my team share one Codefresh connection?

Yes. One person connects Codefresh in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every Codefresh change.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Codefresh?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading Codefresh access rules and analytics reports while blocking deletes of accounts or admins. A restricted action is never advertised to the AI client at all, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Codefresh connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Codefresh through every AI client at once. A shared Codefresh connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want Codefresh gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client.

Does the Codefresh MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Codefresh 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, 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 Codefresh?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Codefresh. 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 Codefresh call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Codefresh?

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 Codefresh: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
