Transport: Streamable HTTP

Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to simplebackups.com, but the endpoint is not on that domain, so the publisher may not run this server.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted SimpleBackups MCP server that lets an assistant check backup health, investigate failures, read run logs, and run, pause or resume backups.

What you can do: Check account and backup health: signed-in account and team, health overview, backup list and details, failing backups
Inspect runs: run timelines, run logs and output of a specific run
Review infrastructure: connected servers and storage destinations
Prepare restores: restore details for a chosen backup
Change state: trigger backups now, pause and resume backups
When to use it: Useful when you already run backups through SimpleBackups and want to ask in plain language which backups failed and why, read logs, or pause and resume schedules during maintenance without opening the dashboard.
Requirements: Remote hosted endpoint over streamable HTTP; nothing to install. Requires a SimpleBackups account and OAuth 2.1 sign-in on first use, approved in the MCP client; no API keys are needed.

Before you install

Write tools (run-backups, pause-backups, resume-backups) change backup state, so confirm before letting an assistant run them; pausing backups can leave data unprotected. Access carries the permissions of your own account, and backup details and logs are shared with the assistant and its model provider.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open SimpleBackups in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.simplebackups%2Fmcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

SimpleBackups MCP Server

Check, debug, and fix your backups from any AI assistant. Find out which backups are failing and why, read run logs, and run, pause, or resume backups for your databases, servers, cloud storage, and SaaS apps.

SimpleBackups automates backups for databases, servers, cloud storage, and SaaS apps. It covers Supabase, Neon, PlanetScale, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and apps like Notion, GitHub and Linear. This MCP server lets your AI assistant (GitHub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and others) check backup health, investigate failures and run safe operations without opening the dashboard.

This is a hosted remote server. There is nothing to install or run, and this repository holds documentation only.

Endpoint: https://mcp.simplebackups.ai/mcp (streamable HTTP)
Auth: OAuth 2.1. You sign in with your SimpleBackups account; no API keys needed.
Docs: https://simplebackups.com/docs/mcp/overview
MCP Registry name: com.simplebackups/mcp

What you can do

"Which backups failed in the last 24 hours, and why?"
"Show me the run timeline for my production Postgres backup."
"Get the logs of the last failed run and tell me how to fix it."
"Pause all backups for the staging server during maintenance, then resume them."
"Run the MySQL backup now."
"Prepare a restore for yesterday's backup of my Supabase database."

Configuration

VS Code / GitHub Copilot

Add to .vscode/mcp.json (or your user MCP settings):

json

{  "servers": {    "simplebackups": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.simplebackups.ai/mcp"    }  }}

{  "servers": {    "simplebackups": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.simplebackups.ai/mcp"    }  }}

Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients

json

{  "mcpServers": {    "simplebackups": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.simplebackups.ai/mcp"    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "simplebackups": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.simplebackups.ai/mcp"    }  }}

On first use your client opens a SimpleBackups sign-in page. Approve access and the tools are available right away.

Usage

Add the server with one of the configs above.
Sign in with your SimpleBackups account when prompted.
Ask your assistant about your backups in plain language.

Write tools (run-backups, pause-backups, resume-backups) change state, so most clients ask you to confirm before running them.

Security

SimpleBackups is ISO 27001:2022 certified. Access uses OAuth with the permissions of your own account.

Tools

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
