Backend-as-a-service platform built for AI coding agents. Postgres, auth, storage & functions
Use InsForge when agents need to configure backend services directly instead of only editing application files.
Skip if your workflow keeps all backend changes in human-reviewed infrastructure-as-code.
It fits experiments where database, auth, storage, and functions need to be created quickly while the agent keeps context.
Skip if you need a mature enterprise backend platform with a long compliance track record.
Exposes backend operations through an MCP server and, for cloud workflows, CLI plus Skills so coding agents can inspect and change backend state.
Covers authentication, database, storage, edge functions, model gateway, compute, and deployment rather than one isolated service.
Agents can read schemas, metadata, bucket contents, auth config, deployed functions, and logs before making changes.
InsForge is an open source backend platform that exposes database, auth, storage, compute, hosting, and AI gateway operations to coding agents.
Yes. The README describes an MCP server that lets compatible agents operate backend capabilities as tools.
Wrap any SQL database with REST and GraphQL APIs and an admin UI
One YAML file gives your app auth, CRUD, storage, and admin UI
Skill-based workflows for coding agents
Full-stack framework for building production-ready web apps
Open source Firebase: Postgres database, auth, and file storage
Self-hosted backend: auth, databases, storage, and functions
AI coding agents can write frontend code quickly, but they struggle when backend state, auth rules, storage buckets, migrations, deployed functions, and runtime logs live in separate systems. Without a backend control plane designed for agents, humans keep stepping in to configure infrastructure and explain state.
It can cover backend primitives in an agent-focused way. Supabase is still the more established choice when the main need is a mature human-operated backend platform.
