MCP Client Setup

Connect the hosted Famulor MCP server to your AI client in a few steps. After setup, sign in with your Famulor API key in the browser when prompted — no API key goes into config files.

MCP Server

Capabilities, auth, and self-hosting

Get API key

Required for OAuth sign-in

Server URL

Canonical endpoint: https://mcp.famulor.io/mcp Both https://mcp.famulor.io/ and https://mcp.famulor.io/mcp work — paste either into your client’s connector dialog.

Quick start

  1. Add the server in your client (see ChatGPT, Claude, or other clients below).
  2. When prompted, complete OAuth sign-in in the browser and paste your Famulor API key.
  3. Ask in natural language, e.g. “Show my last 10 calls” or “List my assistants”.
Authentication uses standard MCP OAuth 2.1 (PKCE). Your API key is never stored in a database — only inside an encrypted access token on your device. Tokens expire after 30 days; your client will prompt you to sign in again.

ChatGPT

Famulor is available as a custom app in ChatGPT (web). You need a ChatGPT plan that supports apps/connectors and Developer mode enabled.

  1. Open ChatGPTSettingsApps (or Connectors).

Troubleshooting

OAuth / sign-in fails

  • Confirm your API key is valid and copied without extra spaces.
  • Try signing in again — tokens expire after 30 days.
  • For ChatGPT, ensure Developer mode is on and OAuth is selected (not API key in headers).

Server not connecting

  • Use https://mcp.famulor.io/mcp (or https://mcp.famulor.io/).
  • Check health: https://mcp.famulor.io/health
  • Restart your client and refresh MCP servers (Cursor: Settings → MCP → Refresh).

Tools not appearing

  • Complete OAuth sign-in after adding the server.
  • In ChatGPT, ensure the Famulor app is selected for the current chat.
