Nifty MCP Server

The official Model Context Protocol server for Nifty. It gives AI agents access to your Nifty workspace: tasks, projects, messages, documents, files and more. It works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any other client that supports remote MCP servers.

This is a hosted (remote) server. There is nothing to install or run. This repository holds its public description, registry metadata (server.json) and connection guide. The server itself is operated by Nifty.

Connect

Endpoint: https://mcp.niftypm.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP)

Easiest: in Nifty, open Settings → MCP (app.nifty.pm/settings/mcp). The wizard covers Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT and Cursor, with a ready-to-paste config or an OAuth connector flow.

Manually: add the endpoint as a remote MCP server and send a Nifty Personal Access Token as a Bearer token. Create one at app.nifty.pm/settings/personal-access-tokens:

Authorization: Bearer <your Nifty personal access token>

Claude, ChatGPT and Microsoft 365 Copilot can instead sign in with your Nifty account through Nifty's connector, started from Settings → MCP. Other clients need the token.

The plugin and extension manifests in this repository read the token from the NIFTY_PAT environment variable (Gemini CLI asks for it when you install the extension):

export NIFTY_PAT=<your Nifty personal access token>

Claude Code example:

claude mcp add --transport http nifty https://mcp.niftypm.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer $NIFTY_PAT"

Install as a plugin or extension

This repository is also a plugin for the clients that install from a Git repo:

Client	Install
Claude Code	/plugin marketplace add Nifty-Technologies-Inc/nifty-mcp, then /plugin install nifty@nifty
Gemini CLI	gemini extensions install https://github.com/Nifty-Technologies-Inc/nifty-mcp
Cursor	Copy mcp.json into .cursor/mcp.json, or add the endpoint in Settings → MCP
Cline	See llms-install.md

Clients that only support stdio

Bridge with mcp-remote. Keep the space out of args by putting the whole header value in env:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nifty": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.niftypm.com/mcp", "--header", "Authorization:${NIFTY_AUTH}"],
      "env": { "NIFTY_AUTH": "Bearer <your Nifty personal access token>" }
    }
  }
}

The full machine-readable list (descriptions and input schemas) is published at mcp.niftypm.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json.

Every call runs as the signed-in user (or the token's agent identity), with that user's Nifty permissions. The server only sees what you can see.
