Changelog
Let AI agents upload with Aktar
The aktar CLI 0.4.0 adds aktar mcp, a Model Context Protocol server for AI agents. Ask Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex or another agent for a link to a screenshot or a build, and it uploads the file to your own S3, Cloudflare R2 or Backblaze B2 bucket through the Aktar app and gives you the URL or Markdown. Your storage keys stay in Aktar. Update with npm install -g @getaktar/cli or brew upgrade aktar-cli, and see how to add it to each agent on the MCP page.
- CLI & MCP0.4.0
What an agent can do
Upload files or the clipboard, put a new file behind an existing link, search your upload history, list destinations, browse a bucket, make a temporary link, show an upload's thumbnail and list watched folders. Each upload uses the destination's own settings in Aktar: its path, its link format and its image processing.
You decide how far it goes
--root limits uploads to the folders you name. --read-only offers only the tools that change nothing, and deleting an upload is only offered with --allow-delete. Agents without MCP can use the aktar command directly: aktar skill prints a skill file that teaches them how.
