Clients

Connect any MCP client

Add Manifold as a remote MCP server in any client, with OAuth or an API key.

Add it as a remote MCP server in any other client.

The server URL:

TEXT
https://mcp.manifoldmcp.com/mcp

What to enter

Any client that supports remote MCP servers works with Manifold. Enter these settings:

SettingValue
TransportStreamable HTTP
URLhttps://mcp.manifoldmcp.com/mcp
AuthOAuth 2.1 with PKCE, found from the server's metadata. Or an API key as a bearer token

A client that supports OAuth for remote servers finds the sign-in by itself. See Authentication.

With an API key

Many clients take a JSON config in this shape. The file name and the key names differ from client to client, so check your client's docs:

JSON
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "manifold": {
      "url": "https://mcp.manifoldmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer mk_live_..." }
    }
  }
}

From your own code

You can also call Manifold from your own agent. Use any MCP client library with a streamable HTTP transport, the URL above and the Authorization header. The server is stateless, and every tool looks data up.
