    How to connect

    How to connect ibo to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://ibouniverse.com/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:

    https://ibouniverse.com/mcp

    1. Open ChatGPT in a browser (chatgpt.com). A Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu plan is required.
    2. Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.
    3. Open Settings → Connectors and click Create.
    4. Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).

    Server tool list (8)

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

    list_offersIBO's production packages: stable ids, prices, 50% deposits, deliverables, review rounds, and the scope/refund policy. Call this first.
    create_checkoutCreate a Stripe Checkout for a package's 50% deposit. Returns checkout_url, stripe_session_id, and amount_due. Show the amount to your user and open checkout_url for THEM to approve and pay; agents never complete payment themselves. Prices are fixed server-side. Pass a stable client_request_id so retries do not create duplicate checkouts.
    get_orderVerify payment after checkout and receive an order-scoped access token. Returns paid, package, deposit, and order_token: use order_token for create_upload_url and submit_brief. Payment status can only be established here, never assumed.
    submit_briefSubmit the creative brief for a PAID order: pass order_token (from get_order; session ids are not accepted here) plus project fields (product, goal, audience, channels, resolution, launch, links, constraints) and files[] from create_upload_url. Delivery resolution must be selected before creative kickoff. Customer identity comes from the verified payment. NOTE: unpaid/anonymous submissions are rejected here; for Custom Production inquiries without payment use the submit_custom_inquiry tool instead.
    create_upload_urlGet a short-lived presigned URL to upload one brand-asset file to IBO's private storage. Requires order_token from get_order; the storage location is bound to the order server-side. PUT the raw file bytes to url, then reference key in submit_brief files[]. Allowed: jpg png webp pdf svg mp4 mov zip ai psd; 250MB/file, 1GB per order.
    submit_custom_inquiryStart a Custom Production conversation without payment. IMPORTANT: interview your user for the real project details FIRST (what they are promoting, audience, formats, delivery resolution, timing); placeholder inquiries are rejected. A 4K Campaign Series must use this route before checkout. Submits a scope inquiry; IBO then emails the customer a one-click confirmation link (double opt-in), and only a confirmed inquiry reaches the studio. Tell your user to check their inbox and click confirm. IBO replies with scope and proposal within one business day of confirmation.
    get_project_statusWhere a paid order is in production. Returns the studio stage (new, brief_received, in_production, review, delivered) plus paid/package/deposit. PII-free; pass the stripe_session_id from create_checkout/get_order.
    get_inquiry_statusWhere a custom inquiry stands: awaiting_confirmation (customer hasn't clicked the emailed link yet) or confirmed with the studio stage (new, replied, proposal_sent, won, closed). PII-free; pass the inquiry_id returned by submit_custom_inquiry.
