Tyk

What is the Tyk MCP Server?

Connect your Tyk instance to any AI agent to streamline your API management and gateway operations through conversation.

What you can do

  • Key Management — Create, retrieve, update, and delete API keys (Session Objects) directly in the Tyk Gateway.
  • Security Policies — Define and manage security policies to control access rights and rate limits across your API ecosystem.
  • API Definitions — List all active API definitions from your Dashboard and create new ones using the Tyk Classic format.
  • Gateway Control — Trigger hot reloads to force the Gateway to refresh its configuration and apply changes instantly.
  • Granular Inspection — Fetch detailed metadata for specific keys and policies to audit access and performance metrics.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Provide your Tyk URL and Gateway Secret (or Dashboard Token)
  3. Start managing your API infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — Automate gateway reloads and policy updates without leaving the terminal or chat interface.
  • Backend Developers — Quickly generate API keys and check definition statuses during the development lifecycle.
  • Security Teams — Audit existing policies and keys to ensure compliance with organizational access standards.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I apply changes to my Tyk Gateway after updating a policy?

You can use the hot_reload tool. This forces the Tyk Gateway to reload its configuration and API definitions, ensuring all updates are live without a full restart.

02

Can I list all my existing API definitions from the Dashboard?

Yes! Use the list_apis tool. It returns a paginated list of all API definitions. You can also filter by name using the optional search string.

03

Is it possible to retrieve the details of a specific API key?

Absolutely. Use the get_key tool with the specific Key ID. The agent will return the session object, including access rights and rate limit configurations.

04

How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.

05

Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?

Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.

06

Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?

Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
