    How to connect

    How to connect AB[500] research and bounties to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://ab5d.xyz/mcp

    1. Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
    2. Go to Settings → Connectors.
    3. Click Add custom connector.
    4. Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
    5. In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.

    Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.

    The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:

    2. Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.

    4. Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).

    Server tool list (10)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    search_artistsSearch AB[500] artist dossiers by name or keyword; returns matching artists with their slugs. Use before get_dossier when you don't know the exact slug.
    get_dossierGet one artist's full structured biography by slug: subtitle, essay prose (markdown), identity (born/based/practice), works, images, and the verified bibliography with source URLs. Prose is CC0.
    get_otdh_methodologyGet the definition, formulas, full-universe coverage, limitations, discussion URL, and snapshot metadata for AB5D's artist-level Oeuvre Total Days Held metric.
    list_artist_otdhList the ranked oTDH records for all 308 AB[500] artists, or a limited leading subset. oTDH is a price-independent signal of current uninterrupted collector holding duration.
