Connect AI

Overview

Connect your AI assistant to Matchanu so it can read and write your project data directly.

What is MCP?

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol — it's an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources. Think of it like giving your AI a direct phone line to your project.

Without MCP, you have to paste context into every chat manually. With MCP, AI can just ask Matchanu directly — "what tasks are open?" or "what's the tech stack for this project?" — and get a live answer.

What AI can do once connected

📖Read your context sections

✅Create and update tasks

📝Leave AI notes for next session

⚖️Record decisions it makes

📐Generate diagrams

🗺️Read epics, sprints, and roadmap

Generate your token

Each organization gets a unique MCP URL. You generate a token, and the URL includes that token — that's what you paste into your AI tool.

1Go to your org Settings → Connect AI
2Click Generate new token
3A URL appears — copy it. It looks like: <code>https://mcp.matchanu.app/mcp?token=abc123...</code>
4Paste that URL into your AI tool of choice (see guides below)

⚠️Keep your token private — anyone with the URL can access all projects in your org. You can generate multiple tokens (one per device or teammate) and revoke any of them from Settings.

Choose your AI tool

Matchanu works with any MCP-compatible client — not just these three. If your AI tool supports MCP, paste the URL in its MCP settings and it should work. The guides below cover the most common setups.
