Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Chat AI supports adding public Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers as tool providers to your Chat AI experience.
This tool requires a model context protocol server URL, which should be a simple HTTPS address. In general this allows Chat AI to interact with additional tools, data sources, or further processing capabilities beyond what is built into Chat AI. Any data from your Chat AI context may be sent to the server you entered.
Interacting with up-to-date information is particularly useful for processing, as it provides more targeted results compared to web searches and is less static than RAG systems like Arcana. Furthermore, additional tools can be used like this example:
- MCP Server:

Adding MCP servers running on your computer, i.e. http://localhost is not supported.
