Firebase for AI agents
Firebase Authentication handles sign-in and sign-up flows for apps, including password, email link, and identity provider logins, used by developers building user accounts into mobile and web apps. 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 Firebase.
Check available sign-in methods
Discover which sign-in methods are enabled for an email before directing a user to the right flow.
Refresh a user's session token
Refresh an ID token so a user's session stays active without asking them to log in again.
Approve before a password reset
Require confirmation before verifying a password reset code, since it can hand over account access.
8 Firebase actions, graded by risk.
Every Firebase action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Firebase in three steps.
- 01Your users connect FirebaseThey add their Firebase api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “refresh ID Token” can wait for the user, and “verify Password Reset Code” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Firebase through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('firebase', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // refresh_id_token destructive: 'deny', // verify_password_reset_code }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Firebase connects.
Users add their Firebase 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 Firebase connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Firebase from any agent.

Firebase and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Firebase with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Firebase 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 Firebase actions you allow.
How do users connect Firebase?
Users add their Firebase 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.
Which Firebase actions can my agent take?
8 in total: 1 read, 6 write and 1 destructive, such as “refresh ID Token”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Firebase?
Yes. Actions like “verify Password Reset Code” 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.
Can my own backend call Firebase too?
Yes. The same Firebase connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Firebase into your agent.
Your users connect Firebase once, under your brand. Your agent gets 8 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
