GroqCloud for AI agents

GroqCloud provides fast AI inference for chat, transcription, and translation, letting developers run models with low latency. Teams building AI products use it to add this capability without training or hosting their own model. 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.

  1. 01Your users connect GroqCloudThey add their GroqCloud api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “create Response” can wait for the user to approve.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls GroqCloud 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('groqcloud', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_response
  destructive: 'deny',

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How GroqCloud connects.

Users add their GroqCloud 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 GroqCloud 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

GroqCloud and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use GroqCloud with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect GroqCloud 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 GroqCloud actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect GroqCloud?

Users add their GroqCloud 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 GroqCloud actions can my agent take?

7 in total: 2 read, 5 write and 0 destructive, such as “create Response”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in GroqCloud?

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

Q05

Can my own backend call GroqCloud too?

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