    How to connect

    How to connect PersonalKnowHow to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://personalknowhow-demo.kxtwrdzt6g.workers.dev/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.

    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.

    Authorization

    After you click Add, a sign-in window for the service opens. Sign in with your own account and approve access. Claude never sees your password.

    How to connect PersonalKnowHow to ChatGPT

    The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:

    https://personalknowhow-demo.kxtwrdzt6g.workers.dev/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).
    5. Under Authentication choose OAuth if the service requires sign-in, otherwise None. Click Create.
    6. In a new chat open + → Apps/Connectors and enable the connector.

    OpenAI has renamed this section before (Connectors → Apps/Plugins). If the label differs, search settings for "developer mode". On Business/Enterprise workspaces an admin must allow custom connectors first.

    Authorization

    On first use ChatGPT opens the service's sign-in window. Sign in and approve access.

    query_knowhowSearch this person's real, grounded skills/experience graph for a topic using semantic search. Returns only entries with real evidence -- never guesses. Every entry here represents something actually done or completed (project, certification, position, course, or education) -- this public dataset never includes saved-but-not-worked jobs or applications. This is SEMANTIC search ranked by relevance and capped at 10 results -- it is NOT exhaustive. For 'list every X' or 'how many X' questions, use list_by_type instead -- it returns the complete, uncapped set with no similarity ranking involved. Clearing the similarity floor means 'closest available match', not 'confirmed match' -- read each result's actual label/description/type before citing it as evidence for the specific topic queried. Each result also carries source_url/captured_at/provider (the real evidence behind it, when available) and source_note (explaining why not, when the underlying source has no link) -- use these to answer a disputed claim with actual backing evidence rather than just the description text. Embeddings can rank a topically-adjacent-but-wrong entry above the floor (e.g. a course on a different cloud data-warehouse tool, or a different framework in the same category) for a term it isn't actually about; if a result isn't genuinely on topic, treat the query as unmatched rather than reporting it as a match. For 'what else is connected to this' or 'what shares a skill/provider with this specific entry' questions, call related_entries with a result's id instead of re-querying by topic.
    list_by_typeReturns the COMPLETE, exact set of entries for one type, with no similarity ranking, no relevance cutoff, and no cap on count. Use this instead of query_knowhow whenever the question requires an exhaustive or countable answer ('list all my certifications', 'how many courses have I completed'). Deterministic ordering (sorted by label) -- repeated calls with the same type return the same list in the same order.
    related_entriesGiven an entry id (from a prior query_knowhow or list_by_type result), returns other entries that share at least one tag or the same content provider -- the only two relationships this corpus currently tracks (there is no 'led to' or 'used in' relationship here, only shared tag/provider). This is NOT a similarity or relevance judgment -- two entries sharing a broad tag (e.g. both tagged 'data-science') can be quite different in substance; read each related entry's own label/type before treating it as meaningful. Each group is capped at 15 entries, sorted by label, with the true total count shown separately so you know if results were truncated -- call list_by_type on that type if you need the full set. Useful for 'what else is connected to X' or 'what did they do that relates to this specific course/certification/endorsement' -- questions query_knowhow's independent similarity search can't reliably answer, since two entries can be genuinely related without their description text reading alike (e.g. a course title and an endorsement phrase for the same skill, worded completely differently).
    skill_evidenceGiven an exact tag/skill (e.g. 'docker', 'gcp'), returns EVERY entry with that tag, uncapped, grouped by type with a real count per type. Unlike related_entries (capped at 15, requires a starting entry id) or query_knowhow (semantic, ranked, may over- or under-include), this is an EXACT tag match against every entry -- the right tool for 'how many X have I completed/done' or 'do I have any real evidence for X at all'. Tags are exact strings from a prior list_by_type/related_entries/query_knowhow result's tags array -- this is NOT semantic search; a tag never assigned during ingest returns found:false, try query_knowhow instead. Each type's entries sort by captured_at ascending (oldest first); entries with no captured_at are moved to the end and counted in undated_count, never silently sorted as if their date were known.
