MCP is an open standard, so the per-client pages are just specific cases of the same thing. Any MCP-compatible client or agent, on any LLM provider, connects to the same endpoint:
Replace YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID with your account subdomain or numeric id (the value in your dashboard URL). For token and OAuth detail, see Authentication. To connect a client not covered by its own page, answer two questions about it.

1. Native remote, or local (stdio) only?

  • Native remote (Streamable HTTP) support: point the client straight at the endpoint URL. No bridge needed.
  • Local / stdio only: run the mcp-remote bridge in front of the URL. mcp-remote turns the remote HTTP endpoint into the local stdio server these clients expect.
The generic bridge command is:
Most stdio clients let you set a command and args in their config. Use npx as the command and the arguments -y mcp-remote https://api.xplenty.com/YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN".

2. How does it authenticate?

  • Supports OAuth: add the server with no credentials and let the client run browser sign-in. It self-registers and stores its own tokens. This is the same flow Claude Code and ChatGPT use.
  • Needs a static credential: create a Personal Access Token (see Authentication) and send it as an Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN header. For stdio clients, pass it through mcp-remote with --header as shown above. If you omit --header, mcp-remote falls back to OAuth browser sign-in.
Once connected, every client sees the identical set of tools and obeys the same per-account permissions, regardless of which client or model is calling. If your client supports the Streamable HTTP MCP transport but still won’t connect, see Troubleshooting.
