Wire CloudBase MCP into CodeBuddy Code CLI for natural-language backend ops
At a glance
Official CloudBase docs show installing the CloudBase plugin (MCP + Skills) into CodeBuddy Code—or adding the MCP server by hand—so you can create apps, databases, functions, and auth from the CLI chat without opening the console. This workflow is listed under sponsor, devtools, mcp, cloudbase, dx.

What they did
Install Node.js 18.15+ and open a CloudBase environment. Prefer the plugin marketplace: codebuddy plugin marketplace add TencentCloudBase/CloudBase-AI-Toolkit, then codebuddy plugin install cloudbase@tencent-cloudbase, and start a fresh session. Or add MCP only with codebuddy mcp add --scope project cloudbase --env INTEGRATION_IDE=CodeBuddyCode -- npx @cloudbase/cloudbase-mcp@latest, or put an HTTP mcpServers.cloudbase entry in .mcp.json. Sign in via Device login when you already have a Tencent Cloud account, or use tcb login with a CloudBase API key and env ID. Then ask the CLI agent in natural language to scaffold mini programs, model Postgres, wire auth, and deploy.
Worth knowing
International-site environments need TCB_SITE=intl (or --site intl) before login, or auth hits the China-site page. Do not commit CloudBase API keys. If MCP tools show as zero, fix .mcp.json, ensure npx works, restart CodeBuddy Code, and confirm login.
