What the Northflank connector can do
Northflank automates deployment of services, jobs, and databases across any cloud, organized into projects with their own secrets and environments. In type.com, a platform team can ask Claude to set up a new project, store a secret for a service, or look up the DNS ID needed for a custom domain.

What teams do with Northflank in type.com
Stand up a new project consistently
Create a Northflank project with specific configuration, or update it if it already exists, so environments stay consistent across the team.
Create or update a Northflank project called staging-api with the standard resource limits we use for staging.
Store a secret without manual steps
Create a secret group holding encrypted environment variables that a service or job can inherit, instead of pasting values directly into configs.
Create a secret group in our Northflank project with the new database password for the billing service.
Set up a custom domain
Look up the account's DNS ID before configuring a custom domain, since it's needed to generate the right DNS entries.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Northflank
Can Claude manage Northflank projects and secrets?
Yes. With a Northflank connection shared to a type.com Space, Claude can create or update projects, store secrets, and look up DNS IDs, all from a thread your platform team shares.
How do I authenticate Northflank in type.com?
Northflank uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created. Spaces managing deployments can use it without seeing the key.
Is deleting a Northflank project reversible?
No. Deleting a project removes all its builds, deployments, and secrets permanently, so confirm the project name with your team before asking the agent to delete it.
Is this the same as a Northflank MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
