Pixeltable API, OpenAPI, and MCP

Public docs endpoints and an authenticated Cloud MCP server live on this host. The open-source library and pxt CLI need no Pixeltable account, and pxt new gets a hosted database without one. Cloud API keys are created in the dashboard after sign-in.

• OpenAPI specification

  Machine-readable spec for the public agent APIs: /ask (NLWeb), /mcp (WebMCP), /health, and /api/v1/trial-orgs (a trial organization for an agent with no account). Versioned with API-Version: 1.

• WebMCP server

  Read-only Model Context Protocol transport. Search docs and list integrations. Also at /.well-known/mcp.

• Cloud MCP server

  Connect an agent to your Cloud organization through AuthKit sign-in. Read and operate databases, services, tables, and logs. Stopping, restarting, and setting a secret need confirmation. Add ?read_only=true for read tools only.

• Cloud MCP tools

  Every advertised Cloud MCP tool, with parameters, read-only and confirm flags, and the no-organization pair used before the first organization.

• Connect Cursor to Pixeltable Cloud

  Merge the hosted Cloud MCP endpoint into ~/.cursor/mcp.json, complete AuthKit sign-in, and sign in again after create_organization.

• Give Claude access to images with MCP

  Cloud MCP returns JSON rows, not image bytes. Store stills, run a vision column, then let Claude read that text through get_table_rows.

• MCP server card

  MCP server card for discovery before opening a transport connection.

• auth.md

  How agents register for credentials with WorkOS AuthKit (anonymous or service_auth), and get a trial organization over HTTP.

• Free database

  pxt new gives an agent or a person a hosted database with no account, and a claim link that keeps it past 48 hours.

• Get started

  Install the pxt CLI, the Pixeltable Skill, and MCP. Coding agents should follow /get-started.md.

• Documentation

  Human docs, cookbooks, and API reference. Full dump: docs.pixeltable.com/llms-full.txt.

• Python SDK and pxt CLI (PyPI)

  Official SDK and pxt CLI: pip install pixeltable. pxt service needs the serve extra: pip install -U 'pixeltable[serve]'.

• Developer llms.txt

  Scoped markdown index for install, schema DSL, CLI, serving, and Cloud deploy order.
