Both the anythink CLI and the anythink-mcp server are distributed together. The quickest way to get both is Homebrew.
brew install anythink-cloud/tap/anythink
This installs both commands onto your PATH:
anythink — the CLIanythink-mcp — the MCP server (see MCP server)Upgrade later with brew upgrade anythink.
Grab the latest release for your platform from the Releases page:
| Platform | Binary |
|---|---|
| macOS (Apple Silicon) | anythink-osx-arm64 |
| macOS (Intel) | anythink-osx-x64 |
| Linux (x86_64) | anythink-linux-x64 |
| Linux (ARM64) | anythink-linux-arm64 |
# Example — macOS Apple Silicon
curl -Lo anythink https://github.com/anythink-cloud/anythink-cli/releases/latest/download/anythink-osx-arm64
chmod +x anythink
sudo mv anythink /usr/local/bin/
The MCP server ships as a matching anythink-mcp-<platform> binary on the same release — download and install it the same way (e.g. anythink-mcp-osx-arm64).
Verify the download against checksums.txt in the release assets:
sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing
If you have the .NET 8 SDK installed:
dotnet tool install --global anythink-cli
git clone https://github.com/anythink-cloud/anythink-cli
cd anythink-cli

Full-text search across your entities, plus index lifecycle management.
anythink search query <text> Run a search
anythink search similar <entity> <id> Find similar documents
anythink search rehydrate [<entity>] Rebuild the search index (admin)
anythink search purge [<entity>] Wipe the search index (admin)
anythink search audit <entity> Compare configured public-searchable fields
with what public search actually returns
Options — search query
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--entities <list> | Comma-separated entity names. Default: all indexed entities. |
--filter <expr> | Filter expression, e.g. "status=published AND category=news". Supports _geoRadius. |
--sort <list> | Comma-separated sort fields, e.g. "created_at:desc,id:asc". |
--facet <fields> | Comma-separated fields to compute facet counts on. |
--highlight | Highlight matched terms in results. |
--page N | Page number (default: 1). |

--json | Print the raw response JSON. |
Index lifecycle
rehydrate and purge are admin operations on the search index:
search rehydrate — rebuilds the index from the database (no data loss; just resyncs)search purge — deletes the index (run rehydrate after to repopulate)Both confirm by default; pass -y / --yes to skip the prompt for automation.
search audit — public-search data leak check
Compares what the entity's schema says should be public-searchable (fields with publicly_searchable=true and the entity's own is_public=true) against what /search/public actually returns. Any field appearing in public results that isn't on the allowlist is reported as a leak.
Exits with code 1 if a leak is detected — useful for CI/CD.
Examples
# Browse everything
anythink search query "*"
# Filtered search with sorting
anythink search query "anythink" --filter "status=published" --sort "created_at:desc"
# Compare what public visitors see vs what's in the database
anythink search audit posts
anythink search audit users --query "alice" --sample 10
# Reindex after a schema change
anythink search rehydrate posts
anythink search rehydrate --yes # everything (admin)
# Geo search (radius in metres)
anythink search query "*" --filter "_geoRadius(51.5074,-0.1278,5000)"

Issue and manage API keys for non-interactive access (CI pipelines, scripts, integrations). Each key is scoped to a permission set, has an expiry, and is tied to the user that created it.
The raw key is shown once on creation and never retrievable — save it immediately or use --save-as to write it directly into a CLI profile.
anythink api-keys list List your API keys
anythink api-keys create <name> --permissions ... Create a new key
anythink api-keys revoke <id> Revoke a key
Options — api-keys create
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--permissions <list> | Required. Comma-separated permission names, e.g. data:read,data:create |
--expires-in <days> | Days until expiry (default: 90, max: 365) |
--no-expiry-cap | Allow --expires-in greater than 365 days |
--save-as <profile> | Save the new key directly to a CLI profile instead of printing it |
--json | Print the response as JSON to stdout (the key is in this output — handle carefully) |
-y, --yes | Skip the confirmation prompt |
Output behaviour
By default, the success message goes to stdout and the raw key goes to stderr on its own line. This makes it easy to capture only the key:
anythink api-keys create ci-deploy --permissions data:read --yes 2> key.txt
If the server drops any of the requested permissions because the current user does not hold them, the CLI surfaces a loud warning so you do not end up with a quietly under-scoped key.
Examples
# Create a 90-day key for CI
anythink api-keys create github-actions --permissions "data:read,data:create" --yes 2> key.txt
# Create a key and save it directly into a profile (key never echoes)
anythink api-keys create scraper --permissions data:read --save-as scraper-bot --yes
anythink --profile scraper-bot data list posts
# Revoke a key
anythink api-keys revoke 42 --yes

| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--name <name> | Friendly name for this connection |
--user-connection | Make this a user-scoped connection |
--port <n> | Local callback port (default: 8745) |
--no-open | Don't try to open the browser — just print the URL |

OAuth credentials need to be set up once per provider before you can connect:
anythink integrations oauth configure slack # prompts for client_id + secret (hidden)
anythink integrations oauth connect slack --name main
Running operations — integrations execute
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--input <k=v> | Input parameter as key=value. Repeatable. |
--inputs <json> | All inputs as a JSON object. |

List available Anythink plans.
anythink plans List plans
anythink plans --json Output as JSON
The Anythink MCP server exposes the platform to AI assistants (Claude, Cursor, etc.) via the Model Context Protocol.
No install needed — the recommended way is to run it on demand with npx:
npx -y @anythink-cloud/mcp
Prefer a native binary on your PATH? Any of:
# Homebrew (bundled with the CLI — see Installation above)
brew install anythink-cloud/tap/anythink
# .NET global tool (requires the .NET 8 SDK)
dotnet tool install -g anythink-mcp
# Or download the anythink-mcp-<platform> binary from the Releases page
For Claude Code, register it in one command:
claude mcp add anythink -- npx -y @anythink-cloud/mcp
Or add it to your MCP client config manually (e.g. .mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"anythink": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@anythink-cloud/mcp"]
}
}
}
To pin a profile, add it to args: ["-y", "@anythink-cloud/mcp", "--profile", "my-project"]
Works in any MCP client — add the same server entry to its config:
| Client | Where to add it |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude mcp add anythink -- npx -y @anythink-cloud/mcp |
| Cursor | ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or the Add to Cursor button above) |
| VS Code | .vscode/mcp.json (or the Install in VS Code button above) |
| Windsurf | ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json |
| Cline / Continue / Zed | their MCP settings |
(Using a native binary instead of npx? Use "command": "anythink-mcp" with no args.)
Once connected, run the login tool, then accounts_use / projects_use to pick your working context.
The MCP server provides dedicated tools for authentication, account/project management, and configuration — plus a generic cli tool that can run any CLI command:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
signup | Create a new Anythink account |
login | Log in with email and password |
login_direct | Store credentials directly (org ID + API key or JWT) |
logout | Remove a saved profile |
config_show | List all profiles |
config_use | Switch active profile |
config_remove | Remove a profile |
accounts_list | List billing accounts |
accounts_create | Create a billing account |
accounts_use | Set the active billing account |
projects_list | List projects |
projects_create | Create a project |
projects_use | Connect to a project |
projects_delete | Delete a project |
cli | Run any CLI command (entities, data, workflows, roles, etc.) |
git clone https://github.com/anythink-cloud/anythink-cli
cd anythink-cli
dotnet build
dotnet run -- --help
dotnet run -- projects list
dotnet run -- entities list
Releases are automated via GitHub Actions. Push a version tag to trigger a build:
git tag v1.2.0
git push origin v1.2.0
The workflow builds self-contained binaries for macOS (arm64, x64) and Linux (x64, arm64), computes SHA256 checksums, and publishes them as a GitHub release.
