# Connect with MCP

Canonical documentation: https://veripoint.ai/api-docs/mcp-setup

Connect Veripoint using Streamable HTTP.

## Platform-managed OAuth

1. Create an active workspace API key at https://veripoint.ai/dashboard#keys with the required scope and expiry.
2. Open https://veripoint.sens663.chatgpt.site/mcp-link and follow connector authorization. Sign in with the ChatGPT identity used by your connector.
3. Verify the key and explicitly select read-only or research permission within its scope. Only the key identifier is stored; key expiry or revocation also stops tool access.
4. Connect your supported OAuth client to https://veripoint.sens663.chatgpt.site/mcp and complete its platform authorization flow.
5. Initialize, discover tools, and call get_usage before running research.

OAuth is managed by the hosting platform. Linking does not merge accounts by email. Each data-bearing call checks the linked workspace and current membership. Disconnect the link in the workspace to revoke access.

## API-key clients

Server: https://veripoint.ai/api/mcp

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_VERIPOINT_API_KEY

Create a key in https://veripoint.ai/dashboard#keys. Choose read-only access for saved reports or research access to create new analyses. Store the key in client secret settings, never in a URL or public source.

## Allowance and limits

Completed research uses the same plan allowance as the website and REST API. Free resets daily at 00:00 UTC; paid plans reset monthly. Reading reports and checking usage do not consume searches. The API key or platform identity is limited to 60 requests per minute. Client support varies: use the OAuth path with a compatible client and the API-key path with clients that support secret Authorization headers.
