Manifold is one remote MCP server. Pick the app or agent you use.
Manifold is one remote MCP server over streamable HTTP. A client that can add a remote MCP server can use it, and most need only the server URL:
https://mcp.manifoldmcp.com/mcp| Client | How |
|---|---|
| Claude | Go to Settings, then Connectors, and add a custom connector. Paste the URL and sign in. |
| Claude Code | Run this, then /mcp to sign in. |
| ChatGPT | Turn on developer mode. Go to Settings, then Apps & Connectors, and choose Create. Paste the URL. |
| Codex | Run this, then codex mcp login manifold to sign in. |
| Cursor | One click, or paste the URL in the MCP section of Cursor Settings. |
| Gemini CLI | Run this, then /mcp auth manifold to sign in. |
| Grok | Go to Settings, then Connectors, and add a connector. Paste the URL and sign in. |
| Grok Bot | Paste this to the bot. It adds Manifold and asks you to sign in. |
| OpenCode | Run opencode mcp add, choose Remote and paste the URL. |
| Any other client | Add it as a remote MCP server in any other client. |
#What every client needs
- The server URL above. The transport is streamable HTTP.
- A sign-in. Most clients open a browser for OAuth. A client that cannot do that sends an API key as a bearer token. See Authentication.
#Check that it works
Ask your agent "What Manifold tools do you have?" It should name tools such as seo_get_serp and leads_search_people. Then ask a real question, and look for meta.credits_charged in the result to see what it cost.
#If something goes wrong
- No tools appear. Reload or restart the client after you add the server. In chat apps, check that Manifold is on for this chat.
- The browser never opens. Some clients need a sign-in step of their own:
/mcpin Claude Code,codex mcp login manifoldin Codex,/mcp auth manifoldin Gemini CLI. - Some tools are missing. A tool group may be switched off on the app's Tools page. See Authentication.
- A call returns
InsufficientCredits. The workspace is out of credits. See Plans and top-ups.
