Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the 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.
What you can do
- Policy Evaluation — Instantly check if a user is permitted to perform specific actions on resources using the
check_permissiontool. - 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.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Permit.io API Key (and optionally your PDP URL)
- Start managing your authorization policies from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Developers — Quickly test authorization logic or provision test users and roles without leaving the IDE.
- Security Engineers — Audit and update access control policies through a conversational interface.
- Product Managers — Define new feature permissions and roles as part of the product requirements workflow.

Why AutoGen?
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Permit.io tools. Connect 18 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
- —
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use Permit.io tools to solve complex tasks
- —
Role-based architecture lets you assign Permit.io tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
- —
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive Permit.io tool calls
- —
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes Permit.io tool responses in an isolated environment
Permit.io in AutoGen
Permit.io and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Permit.io to AutoGen through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Permit.io in AutoGen
The Permit.io MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 18 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in AutoGen only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
Permit.io for AutoGen
Every tool call from AutoGen to the Permit.io MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check if a specific user has permission to access a resource?
Use the check_permission tool. You need to provide the user identifier, the action (e.g., 'read'), and the resource object (including type and tenant). The agent will query your PDP and return the authorization decision.
Can I create new roles and assign permissions to them using this server?
Yes. You can use create_role to define a new role in your schema and then use assign_permissions_to_role to specify exactly what that role is allowed to do within a project and environment.
Does this integration support AuthZen standards?
Yes, it includes several tools like authzen_access_evaluation and authzen_bulk_evaluations to perform authorization checks following the AuthZen specification.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Permit.io tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
