What can you do with Airtable MCP?

  • Create and configure Airtable bases — ask your agent to set up a new base with tables, fields, and views using create_base and related schema tools.
  • Query records with formulas and filters — retrieve, sort, and filter rows across tables using list_records with Airtable formula syntax.
  • Update and manage record data — insert, modify, or delete individual records via create_record, update_record, and delete_record.
  • List and inspect base schema — explore tables, fields, and linked relationships with list_tables and get_table_schema.

Documentation

Airtable

Airtable is the database and operations layer for your agents — whether running product, marketing, sales, ops, HR, or a custom business app. It combines structured data with multiplayer visual surfaces (grid, kanban, calendar, gallery, timeline) humans and agents share — plus sync integrations to Jira, Salesforce, Zendesk, Google Drive, Databricks, and the rest of your stack, all backed by enterprise governance.

This repo is the canonical, official home for the plugins, skills, and other artifacts we ship to make Airtable as fluent to agents as it already is to builders and users. Today that ships as an installable plugin for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor, and as a standalone collection of skills installable via the skills CLI for any agent that consumes agentskills.io–format skills.

What's inside

The bundled skills live under plugins/airtable/skills/, and the official Airtable MCP server (mcp.airtable.com/mcp) is auto-wired via .mcp.json.

Install

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add airtable/skills
/plugin install airtable@airtable-skills

For local testing from a clone:

/plugin marketplace add /path/to/this/repo
/plugin install airtable@airtable-skills

Codex

codex plugin marketplace add airtable/skills

Then enable the plugin via the Codex TUI's plugins menu, or by adding to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[plugins."airtable@airtable-skills"]
enabled = true

If you'd rather wire the MCP server manually instead of via the plugin, add the following to ~/.codex/config.toml (the plugin handles this automatically when enabled — this is just an escape hatch):

[[mcp_servers]]
name = "airtable"
type = "http"
url = "https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp"

Cursor

Browse the Cursor Marketplace or add the plugin from the Customize panel in the sidebar. In the editor you can also run /add-plugin.

To test locally from a clone before it's live in the marketplace, symlink or copy the plugin into Cursor's local plugins directory:

ln -s "$(pwd)/plugins/airtable" ~/.cursor/plugins/local/airtable

Cursor picks up plugins under ~/.cursor/plugins/local automatically.

Standalone skills (any agent)

For OpenCode, Pi, Gemini CLI, or any other agent that consumes Agent Skills:

# All skills
npx skills add airtable/skills

# A specific skill
npx skills add airtable/skills --skill airtable-filters

Or download the latest tagged release zip from GitHub Releases.
