Details

From the project README

Octadesk MCP by usefulapi

Use your Octadesk account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. It searches tickets and people, reads ticket conversations, and creates and updates tickets and people. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://octadesk.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://octadesk.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http octadesk https://octadesk.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "octadesk": {
      "url": "https://octadesk.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Octadesk credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/octadesk/

On first connect you provide your Octadesk subdomain (the acme part of acme.octadesk.com), your Legacy API token from Settings → API → Token API Octadesk (Legacy), and the account e-mail of the account that owns the token. The server validates them and stores them per user. No keys go in config files.

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.
