What can agents actually do with CouchDB?

Models and datasets are infrastructure now, and agents need eyes on them. The CouchDB connector is one of 205 executable connectors and gives agents 6 read-only tools, with the credential held in the vault and every call receipted.

The CouchDB tool list, exactly as agents see it

server_info — Get the CouchDB server welcome document: version, git sha, instance uuid, enabled features and vendor
whoami — Get the CouchDB session for the configured credentials: the authenticated user name, its roles and the handlers the server offers
list_databases — List the database names on the CouchDB server
get_database — Get one CouchDB database's document counts, update sequence, on-disk sizes and cluster parameters
list_docs — List document ids and revisions in one CouchDB database, without fetching document bodies
get_changes — Get the recent changes feed for one CouchDB database: changed document ids, their sequences and the current last sequence

Every tool above is read-only. Write surfaces ship only after live testing, and always behind approval gates.

What the CouchDB connector needs

You provide base URL, username, password from your CouchDB account; Quox sends it as HTTP basic credentials. The credential is stored encrypted in the vault and resolved just-in-time, so agents use it without ever seeing it.

Where to get it: CouchDB's own API documentation ↗ covers creating and scoping the credential.

How proven is this?

LIVE-PROVEN: every tool on this page was executed with real credentials against a real running CouchDB instance (provisioned for the proof, then destroyed), and every call answered successfully. The strongest proof class a connector can carry before it runs inside your own deployment.

Do agents see my CouchDB credentials?

No. Credentials live encrypted in the Quox vault and are resolved server-side at call time. Agents invoke tools; they never receive the underlying secret.
