Retable for AI agents

Retable is a collaborative spreadsheet and database tool for organizing workspaces, projects, tables, and rows that teams can query and edit together. 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.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Retable in three steps.

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

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Retable connects.

Users add their Retable 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 Retable 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

Retable and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Retable with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Retable 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 Retable actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Retable?

Users add their Retable 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 Retable actions can my agent take?

11 in total: 6 read, 3 write and 2 destructive, such as “update Rows”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Retable?

Yes. Actions like “delete Rows” 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 Retable too?

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