Easy setup

Step-by-step instructions for adding this connector to the assistant you already use. No API key needed — see Install if you want a named key instead of the shared public one.

The connector URL you'll need throughout:

https://mcp.chancerylaneproject.org/mcp

Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Cowork)

Claude Desktop, claude.ai and Cowork share one account, so a connector added once is available everywhere you're signed in.

Individual (Pro/Max) accounts:

1. Go to Settings → Connectors.
2. Click +, then Add custom connector.
3. Paste the connector URL above.
4. Leave Advanced settings (OAuth) blank — this connector doesn't need it.
5. Click Add.

Team/Enterprise accounts:

1. An owner goes to Organization settings → Connectors, clicks Add, then Custom → Web, and pastes the connector URL.
2. Members then go to Settings → Connectors, find the connector, and click Connect.

Once added, enable it per conversation: click + in the chat box, choose Connectors, and toggle it on.

ChatGPT

1. Open Settings → Connectors, click Advanced, and turn on Developer mode (Plus, Pro, Team, Enterprise, or Edu — free ChatGPT doesn't support custom connectors).
2. Back in Settings → Connectors, click Create.
3. Enter a Name (e.g. "TCLP Knowledge Graph") and the connector URL above.
4. Leave authentication unset and confirm you trust the provider.
5. Click Create, then enable Developer Mode and the connector in the chat you want to use it in.

Notes

A note on keys in URLs

Some clients only offer a plain URL field with no way to set a custom header. If you're using a named key rather than the shared public one, you can still pass it as ?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY on the connector URL — see Authentication for the trade-off against the X-Api-Key header.
