description Overview
mcp-arangodb — ArangoDB MCP Server
Run AQL queries, traverse graphs, and manage documents in your ArangoDB database from your AI agents.
ArangoDB is the multi-model database that combines documents, graphs, and key-value storage in a single engine — used by enterprises for fraud detection, knowledge graphs, recommendation engines, and supply chain management. This MCP server gives your AI agents direct access to your ArangoDB instance: querying collections, inserting and updating documents, running AQL queries, traversing named graphs, and managing databases — all through natural language.
Live endpoint: https://mcp.aerostack.dev/s/aerostack/mcp-arangodb
What You Can Do
- Run AQL queries with bind variables to pull live data into agent workflows
- Traverse named graphs to explore relationships between entities (social networks, dependency trees, knowledge graphs)
- Perform full document CRUD — get, insert, update, and delete documents in any collection
- Manage collections and databases across your multi-model data layer

Frequently asked questions
What is the Arangodb MCP server and what can it do? +
The Arangodb MCP server is hosted on Aerostack and exposes these tools to your AI agent: `_ping`, `list_databases`, `list_collections`, `create_collection`, `get_document`. You get one hosted URL — no self-hosting — that works from Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client, and you can share it with your team or combine it with other MCP servers in a workspace.
Is the Arangodb MCP server hosted, or do I have to run it myself? +
It's hosted on Aerostack's edge infrastructure — you don't deploy or maintain anything. Add it to a workspace and you get one authenticated URL, with secrets encrypted, that any AI agent or editor can connect to. Use it solo or share the same URL across your whole team.
Which AI agents and editors can use the Arangodb MCP server? +
Any MCP client: Claude and Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code, and custom agents. Because it's one hosted URL, the same Arangodb MCP server works everywhere — and you can compose it with other MCP servers, skills, and functions behind a single workspace URL.
How do I install the Arangodb MCP server in Claude Desktop? +
Add the following to your Claude Desktop config (`claude_desktop_config.json`): ```json { "mcpServers": { "@aerostack/mcp-arangodb": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@aerostack/@aerostack/mcp-arangodb"] } } } ``` Then restart Claude Desktop and the tools will appear automatically.
How do I use the Arangodb MCP server in Cursor? +
In Cursor, open **Settings → MCP** and add: ```json { "name": "@aerostack/mcp-arangodb", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@aerostack/@aerostack/mcp-arangodb"] } ``` Save and reload Cursor. The MCP tools will be available in Agent mode.
Does Arangodb MCP require authentication? +
Yes. Arangodb requires authentication. Check the MCP's documentation for the required credentials.
