Your AI agent sets up the database, storage and tools
Bring Claude Code, Codex or any MCP client. Ask for a PostgreSQL database and object storage. The agent creates them on open source services and hands back the connection details.
Your code keeps running wherever you run it today. Nothing to click in a cloud console.
What you ask for
Set up a PostgreSQL database and S3 storage for this project on OSC, and put the connection details in my .env.
That one sentence is the whole interface. The agent looks up the exact services in the live catalog, reads what each one needs, creates them and waits until they are running.
What the agent does
The agent creates a PostgreSQL database
Created with public access, so an app outside Open Source Cloud can connect. Two required fields: a name and a password. Need vector search as well? The agent picks Postgres Vector (pgvector) instead, with the same two fields.
The agent creates S3-compatible storage
MinIO, for uploads and files. Only a name is required. If the agent lets the platform generate the admin credentials, it reads and stores them itself.
You get the connection details back
A DATABASE_URL and an S3 endpoint with access keys, written into your .env or secret store. No console, no copy-paste between tabs.
The same steps as a machine-readable recipe an agent can follow: /stacks/provision-agent-backend.json
More tools, when you need them
Vector search
Postgres Vector: pgvector on PostgreSQL, so one database holds both your rows and your embeddings.
Cache or queue
Valkey speaks the Redis protocol. It is internal-only by default, so it fits when your app runs here as well.
Want Open Source Cloud to run the code too? Deploy the app your agent wrote.
What it costs
PostgreSQL plus MinIO costs at most 15 tokens a day. The free Basic plan includes 100 tokens, once, which is about six days of this pair. To keep it running, the Personal plan gives you 40 tokens a day for 15 EUR a month. See pricing.
Frequently asked questions
Which AI tools can do this?
Any MCP client. In Claude Code, run "claude mcp add --transport http osc https://mcp.osaas.io/mcp" once. Codex, Cursor and other MCP clients connect to the same address. The agent then finds the services in the catalog and creates them for you.
Does my app have to run on Open Source Cloud?
No. The agent creates PostgreSQL with public access, so it has a public connection URL, and MinIO comes with an HTTPS endpoint. An app on your laptop, your own server or another cloud can use both. Valkey is internal-only by default, so add it when the app runs here too, or ask the agent to create it with public access.
How does the agent handle passwords?
Passwords are stored as service secrets, not pasted into chat. The agent reads generated credentials with describe-service-instance and writes them into your own .env or secret store. If you need a value yourself, download-service-secret gives you a short-lived download link.
What does it cost?
PostgreSQL plus MinIO costs at most 15 tokens a day (ceiling estimate: 5 plus 10). The free Basic plan has 100 tokens, once, which covers about six days of this pair. Keeping it running continuously fits the Personal plan: 15 EUR a month with 40 tokens a day.
Can I move off later?
Yes. Both services are upstream open source, PostgreSQL and MinIO, so you leave with pg_dump and any S3 copy tool, and run the same software anywhere else.
