Independent review. IonBin has no partnership with 1Password and was not paid for this page. Our evaluation is our own, based on public documentation and our research. Product names are trademarks of their owners and are used for identification only. How disclosure works.

Password manager and secrets platform. Its Environments MCP server runs locally in the 1Password desktop app and lets coding agents such as Claude Code and Cursor work with environment variables; by design it cannot return secret values to the agent.

Best for
  • Teams sharing logins and API keys
  • Giving coding agents scoped access to environment variables without exposing secrets
Not for
  • Remote-only MCP clients (the Environments MCP server needs stdio transport, per 1Password's docs)

Top use cases

  • Let coding agents work with environment variables without exposing secret values source ↗
  • Query SaaS Manager data from an AI tool (the remote server is read-only) source ↗
  • Import logins, cards and notes from a CSV file source ↗

How to use it with AI

How 1Password connects to each AI platform: native connector or MCP, API through code the agent writes, browser control, or file upload.

PlatformMCP / connectorAPI (agent-written code)BrowserUpload / export
Claude (incl. Claude Code) Confirmed Setup for the Environments MCP server 1Password docs ↗Claude (incl. Claude Code) MCP docs ↗ Confirmed Claude (incl. Claude Code) can run code; 1Password publishes an API. 1Password API ↗Claude (incl. Claude Code) docs ↗ Confirmed Claude Code with the Claude in Chrome extension (Chrome, Edge and other Chromium browsers) Claude (incl. Claude Code) browser docs ↗ Confirmed Export from 1Password, then works on the files in your project; chat accepts attachments Claude (incl. Claude Code) docs ↗
OpenAI Codex Confirmed Setup for the Environments MCP server 1Password docs ↗OpenAI Codex MCP docs ↗ Confirmed OpenAI Codex can run code; 1Password publishes an API. 1Password API ↗OpenAI Codex docs ↗ Confirmed Only in the ChatGPT desktop app; not in the Codex CLI or IDE extension OpenAI Codex browser docs ↗ Confirmed Export from 1Password, then works on local repositories OpenAI Codex docs ↗
Google Antigravity Not documented 1Password has an official MCP server and Google Antigravity supports MCP, but 1Password's docs don't name this pairing. Auth setup may differ. 1Password MCP docs ↗Google Antigravity MCP docs ↗ Confirmed Google Antigravity can run code; 1Password publishes an API. 1Password API ↗Google Antigravity docs ↗ Confirmed Browser subagent via /browser, documented as an Antigravity App feature; the IDE has separate browser docs Google Antigravity browser docs ↗ Confirmed Export from 1Password, then works on local projects and worktrees Google Antigravity docs ↗

Confirmed means both the tool's and the platform's official docs describe that route (links in the cell); IonBin has not tested every pairing. Not documented means it may work, but no official docs describe that route end to end. Checked Oct 17, 2026.
