The Bonsai MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server connects your Bonsai account to AI clients that support MCP, allowing AI assistants to securely access and interact with your Bonsai data using natural language.
Once connected, supported AI clients can retrieve information from Bonsai and perform actions on your behalf without requiring you to manually navigate through the Bonsai application.
Examples of supported AI clients include:
Claude (Desktop/Cowork/Code)
Cursor
Codex
n8n
Other MCP-compatible AI tools
Why use the Bonsai MCP server
Instead of navigating through multiple screens in Bonsai, users can simply describe what they need in plain language.
Examples:
"What tasks are overdue?"
"Create a project for a new client."
"Show me deals closing this month."
The AI assistant interprets the request, retrieves the appropriate information, and performs actions when authorized.
Permission-based access
The Bonsai MCP Server respects the permissions already configured within your Bonsai account.
The server can only access information and perform actions that the authenticated user is already authorized to access.
The MCP Server cannot grant additional permissions or bypass existing access controls.
