Botpress for AI agents

Botpress is an open-source chatbot platform that developers use to build, deploy, and monitor bots, tracking usage and conversations across workspaces. 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.

EVERY BOTPRESS CALL, ON THE RECORD
01 · USE CASES

What agents do in Botpress.

01

Check workspace usage

Read-only lookup of workspace usage broken down by bot before deciding to scale or archive one.

02

Review a bot's conversations

Pull recent conversations and action runs for a bot to check how it is performing.

03

Require approval before deleting a workspace

Treat deleting an admin workspace or knowledge base as destructive since it removes a bot's entire setup.

02 · ACTIONS

53 Botpress actions, graded by risk.

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

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Botpress in three steps.

  1. 01Your users connect BotpressThey add their Botpress api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “bOTPRESS_CREATE_BOT” can wait for the user, and “delete File” can be denied outright.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Botpress through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('botpress', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_bot
  destructive: 'deny',  // delete_file
})

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Botpress connects.

Users add their Botpress 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 Botpress 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

Botpress and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Botpress with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Botpress 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 Botpress actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Botpress?

Users add their Botpress 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 Botpress actions can my agent take?

53 in total: 34 read, 15 write and 4 destructive, such as “bOTPRESS_CREATE_BOT”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Botpress?

Yes. Actions like “delete File” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Botpress too?

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