    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.

    Server tool list (6)

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

    what_can_you_doDescribe a task in plain language (any language) and get back exactly which tools on this server do it, with ready-to-run example calls — instead of reading the whole catalogue and guessing. Also returns multi-step recipes when a task needs several tools chained (invoices to a ledger, a bank statement reconciled, a messy CSV turned into a deliverable). Deterministic and free: it calls no model, costs nothing, and never runs out of quota. Call this FIRST when you are not sure what this server offers.
    create_taskCreate a task that runs on a schedule in our cloud — you do not keep anything running. It only notifies you when the result actually changes. Kinds: watch_page (Watch a web page and report when its content changes); daily_answer (Re-run a web-researched question on a schedule and report when the answer changes); watch_reachability (Track whether a site stays reachable from mainland China); pipeline (Run one of your production lines (create_pipeline) on a schedule; every run leaves a proof-carrying work order). Needs a workspace token (?w=ws_... on your MCP URL) so you can manage it later. Application and model calls are subsidized during the free beta; your charge is $0.00 and capacity limits apply.
    list_tasksShow scheduled tasks, next run times, run counts, and measured platform cost metadata. User charge is $0.00 during the beta.
    get_task_runsRecent runs of one scheduled task: what it returned, whether the result changed, and measured platform cost metadata. User charge is $0.00.
    delete_taskStop and remove a scheduled task and its run history.
    china_reachabilityFetch a URL from a real mainland-China network egress and report HTTP status, latency and China DNS resolution. Answers "is my site/API usable from China?" with a measurement instead of a guess — you cannot get this from a VPS abroad.
