Common questions
Is Backlane safe?
It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.0) reached the registry 9 days ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.
What can I use instead?

Backlane
Let your AI assistant run your OTTO Market, Kaufland and Mirakl accounts.
Backlane is a remote MCP server. Connect your marketplace accounts once in the Backlane app, connect Backlane in your AI client, and ask about orders, offers, prices and inventory in plain language.
This repo holds the agent side: setup guides, skills and plugin manifests.
Quick start
Claude web and desktop (community connector):
Select backlane production in the Claude directory, add the connector and sign in with your Backlane account. Enable it in chat and ask which marketplaces are connected. Workspace approval may be required. See the Claude guide for the manual fallback.
Claude Code (plugin with skills):
/plugin marketplace add pschlieker/getbacklane
/plugin install backlane@backlane
Other MCP clients and manual setup:
https://app.getbacklane.com/mcp
See docs/setup for ChatGPT, Cursor and VS Code.
Then ask:
*"Is Backlane working? Which marketplaces are connected?"*
