What is the Retool MCP Server?
Connect your conversational assistant directly to the Retool ecosystem. This integration enables your AI to explore the organizational structure of your internal tools, auditing who has access to what, and reviewing which databases are connected.
What you can do
- Audit Applications — Ask your assistant to scan your Retool workspace (
list_apps) and drill down into the configuration of specific tools (get_app). Observe how tools are organized by requesting a view of the folder hierarchy (list_folders). - Manage Permissions & Users — Review the active members of your Retool organization (
list_users) and understand their access levels by listing the existing permission groups (list_groups). - Review DevOps & Infrastructure — Command the AI to inspect which data sources or APIs are wired into your operational stack (
list_resources), and list any active background automation tasks (list_workflows).
How it works
- Install the Retool extension module in your MCP environment.
- Obtain your
Retool Access Tokenand yourRetool Domainfrom your network settings. Enter them securely below. - Converse naturally: "List all our active Retool users and tell me if we have any database resources connected."
Who is this for?
- IT Administrators — Run quick audits of internal user privileges and database connections without diving into several clicks in the Retool dashboard.
- Engineering Leads — Monitor the landscape of internal tools and workflows directly while chatting about operations.
- Data Teams — Quickly verify if the relevant PostgreSQL database has been integrated to Retool for team usage.

Frequently asked questions
Can the assistant create new Retool apps or modify queries?
No, this integration is primarily focused on querying and auditing your Retool workspace. It can list apps (list_apps), detail definitions (get_app), and trace infrastructure (list_resources, list_workflows) but cannot currently modify app UI or delete users.
Where do I find the Retool Domain?
Your Retool domain is exactly what you see in the URL bar when you log into Retool. For example, if you access Retool at https://acme-corp.retool.com, your domain is acme-corp.retool.com. For self-hosted deployments, use the root domain of your custom instance.
Can the AI show me which automated workflows are currently active?
Yes. Use list_workflows to retrieve all automation workflows configured in your Retool workspace, including their names and status. This lets you quickly verify which background processes are running without opening the Retool dashboard.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Retool MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
