Agent guide

Generic MCP Setup

Paste this into your agent

Start with this visible request when you want the agent to help. It keeps the action coming from you, while the linked setup reference stays plain and non-recursive.

Use this in the app you are connecting, then approve only the browser login, app setting, or restart steps that the app requires.

Please help me set up Core for this MCP client. Core keeps shared context for AI work: it preserves useful context, decisions, files, and what worked across connected tools.

Use this official setup reference:
https://core.gradien.ai/core/docs/reference

Source checked: 2026-07-24 Protocol source: https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/basic/authorization

Use this guide for a client without a dedicated Core setup page.

During onboarding, paste the complete Secure server address shown by Core. It ends in /mcp/continuity?setup_attempt=...; keep the query parameter so Core can verify the connection. Outside onboarding, use https://core.gradien.ai/mcp/continuity.

Add Core

  1. Add Core as a remote Streamable HTTP MCP server.
  2. Use OAuth and let the client discover authorization through Core's protected-resource metadata.
  3. Complete browser consent.
  4. Verify MCP initialize and tools/list.

OAuth protected-resource metadata: https://core.gradien.ai/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp/continuity

The /mcp endpoint exposes Core's broader advanced server. Use /mcp/continuity for the personal-context experience described in onboarding.

Use a personal, scoped, revocable connector key only when the client cannot complete OAuth and the user deliberately approves a local secret fallback.
