About Permit.io MCP Server

Connect your Permit.io account to any AI agent to manage your application's authorization layer through natural language. This server allows you to evaluate permissions, manage your authorization schema, and handle user facts without touching code.

Claude Code registers Permit.io as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 18 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where Permit.io data drives decisions without human intervention.

What you can do

  • Policy Evaluation — Instantly check if a user is permitted to perform specific actions on resources using the check_permission tool.
  • Schema Management — Create resources, define roles, and assign permissions dynamically to build RBAC or ReBAC (Relationship-Based Access Control) structures.
  • Fact Management — Provision users and tenants directly into your authorization environment to keep your permission data in sync.
  • AuthZen Compatibility — Use standardized AuthZen evaluation tools for interoperable access control checks.
  • ReBAC Relations — Define complex relationships between resources to handle hierarchical or ownership-based permissions.

The Permit.io MCP Server exposes 18 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Claude Code in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
