Motion for AI agents

Motion is an AI calendar and project management tool that automatically schedules tasks and meetings across a team's day based on priority. 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 MOTION CALL, ON THE RECORD
01 · USE CASES

What agents do in Motion.

01

Create a task with a deadline

Create a task under a project so Motion schedules it into the right day.

02

Check a project's task list

List tasks on a project to see what remains outstanding before a status update, a read-only check.

03

Approve before deleting a task

Require approval before deleting a task, since it removes it from everyone's schedule.

02 · ACTIONS

27 Motion actions, graded by risk.

Every Motion 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

Motion in three steps.

  1. 01Your users connect MotionThey add their Motion api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Task” can wait for the user, and “delete Task” can be denied outright.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Motion 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('motion', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_task
  destructive: 'deny',  // delete_task
})

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL
$ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Motion connects.

Users add their Motion 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 Motion 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

Motion and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Motion with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Motion 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 Motion actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Motion?

Users add their Motion 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 Motion actions can my agent take?

27 in total: 12 read, 9 write and 6 destructive, such as “create Task”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Motion?

Yes. Actions like “delete Task” 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 Motion too?

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