Lambda Cloud MCP server
Lambda Cloud in any MCP client, through Memtro: Lambda Cloud does not publish this server. Memtro's Lambda Cloud connector reads Lambda Cloud through its API with the credentials you connect, and one endpoint hands those tools, every other system you connect and Memtro's memory tools to Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop or anything else that speaks Streamable HTTP, as you.
What the model can do
Lambda Cloud GPU instances: running instances with type, GPUs, region, IP, hourly price and status, instance types with prices and which regions have capacity now, images, persistent filesystems, support tickets with their status, severity and priority, and the account's audit log of actions; when you ask, can launch an instance (billed per hour), restart or terminate instances, rename or retag one, create or delete a filesystem, open a support ticket with Lambda, and comment on, re-prioritise or close one.

Acts, when you ask
These change something in Lambda Cloud. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and each one is granted by name: per team on a shared connection, by the owner on a personal one.
lambdalabs_launch_instanceLaunches a new Lambda Cloud GPU instance in the region given, which starts hourly billing at the type's price…lambdalabs_restart_instancesReboots the Lambda Cloud instances named by id; whatever runs in memory on them is lost and they are unreachable until they are back.lambdalabs_terminate_instancesPermanently terminates the Lambda Cloud instances named by id: they are destroyed with everything on their local disks…lambdalabs_update_instanceRenames a Lambda Cloud instance and/or replaces ALL its tags with the ones given (an empty list clears them; keys starting lambda-ai- are reserved).lambdalabs_create_filesystemCreates a persistent filesystem in a Lambda region, which instances in that region can mount; storage is billed while it exists.lambdalabs_delete_filesystemPermanently deletes a Lambda filesystem and every file on it.lambdalabs_create_ticketOpens a support ticket with Lambda: Lambda's support staff (people outside the company) receive the subject and description and will reply.lambdalabs_update_ticketAdds a comment to a Lambda support ticket (Lambda's support staff see it; comments cannot be edited), changes its severity or priority…
Connect it
First connect Lambda Cloud on Dashboard → Connections, then add Memtro to your client once. The Lambda Cloud tools appear alongside the tools of everything else you have connected; nothing is configured per connector.
Claude Code
The Memtro plugin registers the server and a skill for when to use it; the tools are then available in every session.
claude plugin marketplace add memtro-org/claude-memtro
claude plugin install memtro@memtro --config api_key=sk-memtro-...Cursor
Add the server to .cursor/mcp.json in the project, or to the global file under ~/.cursor/.
{
"mcpServers": {
"memtro": {
"url": "https://platform.memtro.com/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer sk-memtro-..."
}
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Create a personal API key on Dashboard → Profile → API keys. In Claude Desktop add an MCP server of type HTTP with URL https://platform.memtro.com/api/mcp and the header Authorization: Bearer sk-memtro-…
OpenCode
A remote server in opencode.json.
{
"mcp": {
"memtro": {
"type": "remote",
"url": "https://platform.memtro.com/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer sk-memtro-..."
}
}
}
}Pi
One command: pi mcp add memtro --url https://platform.memtro.com/api/mcp --bearer-token-env-var MEMTRO_API_KEY. Tools arrive as mcp__memtro__*. The pi-memtro extension registers it for you, alongside Memtro as the model.
Any other client
Add an MCP server of type HTTP (Streamable HTTP, stateless) at https://platform.memtro.com/api/mcp with the header Authorization: Bearer sk-memtro-.... Codex, Zed, Windsurf, Cline and the SDKs all take a remote server this way.
Who may use it
The key identifies the person, and the server offers that person the tools they may use everywhere else in Memtro. A shared Lambda Cloud connection is used by the teams an administrator granted it to, tool by tool, on the Permissions page; a personal connection is used by its owner alone, and its tools that act stay off until the owner allows them. See Teams and permissions and Connectors.
Ask it like this
- › Which instances are running, and what do they cost per hour?
- › Which instance types can be launched right now, and in which regions?
- › Which support tickets with Lambda are still open?
- › Which instances were launched or terminated this week, according to the audit log?
- › Restart the training-02 instance.
Questions
- Is this an official Lambda Cloud MCP server?
- No. It is Memtro's MCP server with Memtro's Lambda Cloud connector behind it: the connector reads Lambda Cloud through its API with the credentials you connect on Dashboard → Connections, and Lambda Cloud publishes nothing here. The same endpoint carries every other system you connect and Memtro's memory tools.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing on top of Memtro. One price per organisation by its number of users, from $50 a month for up to 10 users after a 7-day free trial, with every connector, the MCP server, jobs and memory included. You bring your own model keys.
- Can it change anything in Lambda Cloud?
- Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: launch a GPU instance (billed per hour); restart instances; terminate instances; rename or retag an instance; create a persistent filesystem; delete a filesystem; open a support ticket with Lambda; comment on, re-prioritise or close a support ticket. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. An administrator grants each acting tool by name per team, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.
- Which clients work?
- Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP: Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, OpenCode, Codex, Zed, Windsurf, Cline and the Anthropic and OpenAI SDKs. There is no local process to run; the server is remote and authenticated with your key.
