Apilio for AI agents

Apilio is a home automation platform that connects smart devices from many brands and lets users build automations with conditions, schedules, and integrations like IFTTT and Tuya. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

What agents do in Apilio.

Read the current value of a boolean, numeric, or string variable used in an automation.

02

03

List logic blocks before making a change

List all logic blocks to understand what automations already exist before editing one.

8 Apilio actions, graded by risk.

Every Apilio action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Apilio connects.

Users add their Apilio api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Apilio connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Apilio and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Apilio with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Apilio to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Apilio actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Apilio?

Users add their Apilio api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Apilio actions can my agent take?

8 in total: 8 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Apilio?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Apilio policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Apilio too?

Yes. The same Apilio connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
