You can use this MCP server to access Airtable databases programmatically, allowing your large language model workflows to read schemas, query bases and tables, and create or update records with structured, rule-based interactions.

How to use

To leverage Airtable in your MCP-enabled workflow, connect the server to your MCP client using a local stdio configuration (npx) and your Airtable API key. You will gain endpoints for listing bases, listing tables, describing tables, and performing CRUD operations on records as described in the Tools section.

How to install

Prerequisites: Node.js installed on your machine.

# Install dependencies and prepare the MCP server (example steps)
npm install
npm run build
