MCP support
The remote MCP server uses Streamable HTTP at https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp. MCP clients authenticate with OAuth 2.0 and call its knowledge-graph management tools.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.
https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcpclaude mcp add --transport http aiqbee-ai https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp{"mcpServers":{"aiqbee-ai":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"}}}Open in Cursor{"servers":{"aiqbee-ai":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"}}}Open in VS Code{"mcpServers":{"aiqbee-ai":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"}}}{"mcpServers":{"aiqbee-ai":{"serverUrl":"https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"}}}Run commands in a terminal; paste JSON into the client’s MCP config and restart. Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

Quick Start
Claude Code
Plugin (includes the /brain skill), from your shell:
claude plugin marketplace add AIQBee/aiqbee-ai
claude plugin install aiqbee@aiqbee-marketplace
Inside a Claude Code session, use /plugin marketplace add AIQBee/aiqbee-ai then /plugin install aiqbee@aiqbee-marketplace.
Or add the server directly:
claude mcp add --transport http aiqbee https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp
Then run /mcp inside Claude Code (or claude mcp login aiqbee from your shell) to sign in.
Claude Desktop / claude.ai
Claude Desktop and claude.ai connect to remote servers through custom connectors, not claude_desktop_config.json:
- Go to Customize → Connectors, click Add, then Custom → Web.
- Name:
Aiqbee, remote MCP server URL:https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp. Click Continue. - Keep the detected OAuth settings, click Add, then connect and sign in with your Aiqbee account.
On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner adds the connector under Organization settings → Connectors first; members then connect individually. Connectors added here are also available in Claude Code when signed in with the same Claude account.
Alternatively, use the npx bridge in claude_desktop_config.json.
ChatGPT
ChatGPT (web) adds custom MCP servers as plugins:
- Go to Plugins, select +, then Add custom MCP server.
- Name:
Aiqbee; under Connection enterhttps://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp; authentication: OAuth. - Review the risk warning, tick I understand and want to continue, then Create as a plugin.
- Install the plugin and sign in with your Aiqbee account.
Availability depends on your plan and workspace policies. The ChatGPT desktop app shares MCP configuration with Codex; see OpenAI Codex CLI.
Cursor
One-click install link (open in a browser): Add to Cursor
Or add to .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global):
{
"mcpServers": {
"aiqbee": {
"url": "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"
}
}
}
VS Code / GitHub Copilot
Run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette and choose HTTP, or add to .mcp.json at your workspace root (or ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json for all workspaces):
{
"mcpServers": {
"aiqbee": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"
}
}
}
The VS Code–specific .vscode/mcp.json format (top-level servers instead of mcpServers) also works.
Use the tools from Copilot Chat in Agent mode.
Gemini CLI
gemini extensions install https://github.com/AIQBee/aiqbee-ai
Restart Gemini CLI and run /mcp auth aiqbee if not prompted.
Or add the server directly:
gemini mcp add --transport http aiqbee https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp
OpenAI Codex CLI
codex mcp add aiqbee --url https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp
Or add to ~/.codex/config.toml (shared by Codex CLI, the Codex IDE extension and the ChatGPT desktop app):
[mcp_servers.aiqbee]
url = "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"
Then sign in:
codex mcp login aiqbee
Windsurf
For the Cascade agent, open … → Open MCP config file in the Cascade panel (~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json on macOS/Linux, %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json on Windows; older Windsurf versions used ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json) and add:
{
"mcpServers": {
"aiqbee": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Zed
In Zed, open Settings → AI → MCP Servers → Add Server → Add Remote Server, or add to settings.json (Zed prompts for OAuth sign-in):
{
"context_servers": {
"aiqbee": {
"url": "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Grok (xAI API)
The xAI API supports remote MCP servers as a tool (Responses API / xAI SDK). xAI connects to the server on your behalf, so it cannot run the interactive OAuth flow; pass an Aiqbee OAuth access token in authorization:
{
"model": "<grok-model>",
"input": "List all my Aiqbee brains",
"tools": [
{
"type": "mcp",
"server_url": "https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp",
"server_label": "aiqbee",
"server_description": "Aiqbee knowledge graph (brains, neurons, relationships)",
"authorization": "<AIQBEE_ACCESS_TOKEN>"
}
]
}
Use allowed_tools (allowed_tool_names in the xAI SDK) to limit Grok to read-only tools such as aiqbee_search and aiqbee_fetch. See xAI Remote MCP Tools.
npx (stdio clients)
For MCP clients that only support stdio transport:
{
"mcpServers": {
"aiqbee": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@aiqbee/mcp"]
}
}
}
Other MCP Clients
Point any MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP and OAuth at:
https://mcp.aiqbee.com/mcp
Authentication
Aiqbee uses OAuth 2.0 with secure authorization. When you first connect, your MCP client will prompt you to sign in. The server supports:
- Public clients (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Gemini CLI): Standard PKCE flow
- Confidential clients (ChatGPT): Server-side PKCE with callback
No API keys needed - just sign in with your existing Aiqbee account.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
