Why people use Nhost
Nhost for Faster Authentication Testing
This Connector cuts that cycle down to a single sentence. You tell your agent to register a user and then immediately try a sign-in. It handles the heavy lifting behind the scenes, letting you focus on whether the logic actually works.
What Vinkius changes
You get a natural language interface for your Nhost backend.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Nhost.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
What can I do with the Nhost MCP?
You can manage your entire Nhost backend through natural language. This includes creating users, handling logins, and managing cloud storage files directly from your AI client.
How do I manage users with the Nhost MCP?
You can ask your agent to register new accounts, retrieve profile details, or initiate password resets without ever opening the Nhost dashboard.
Can I handle file uploads using the Nhost MCP?
Yes, you can ask your agent to upload files to your buckets, delete old assets, or generate temporary presigned URLs for sharing.
Is the Nhost MCP good for testing magic links?
It's perfect for that. You can tell your agent to initiate passwordless authentication and then verify that the magic link was sent correctly.
How do I use the Nhost MCP to sign out users?
Just tell your agent to sign out the current user. It will invalidate the refresh tokens and end the session for you.
Can I get presigned URLs with the Nhost MCP?
Yes, the Connector can generate a temporary presigned URL for any file in your storage, which is great for secure file delivery.
How can I retrieve the profile of the currently logged-in user?
Use the get_user capability. It fetches the authenticated user's profile information, including their ID and metadata, provided a valid JWT is configured.
Is it possible to store documents or images using this server?
Yes. The upload_file action allows you to send raw text or base64 content along with a filename directly to your Nhost Storage bucket.
Can I initiate a login without requiring a password?
Absolutely. Use the signin_passwordless_email capability to send a magic link to a user's email address for a seamless passwordless authentication experience.
