    How to connect

    How to connect toolpin to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://toolpin.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.
    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.

    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 toolpin to ChatGPT

    The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:

    https://toolpin.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.

    Server tool list (6)

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

    search_serversFind MCP servers in the public registry by name or title. Returns the canonical name, description, and whether the server answered our last probe. Use this to turn a rough idea of a server into the exact name the other tools need.
    get_serverEverything Toolpin has observed about one MCP server: reachability of each remote endpoint and when each was last checked and last verified, repository activity, the current tool-definition hash, and how many changes it has recorded in the last 90 days. The reply includes the catalog-wide drift rate so that count can be read against a baseline.
    get_server_toolsThe tool definitions one MCP server advertised when Toolpin last read them, each with a SHA-256 hash of the fields the MCP specification defines. Use this to see what a server's tools claim to do without connecting to it, or to compare a hash you pinned earlier.
    get_server_changesChanges Toolpin recorded for one MCP server: tool definitions changing, and endpoints going down or coming back. Each change says which tools moved and which of their fields differed, with the hash before and after. Includes the catalog-wide drift rate for comparison.
    get_spec_statusThe current MCP specification revision, which of its proposals Toolpin checks for, and how much of the catalog has migrated. Use this to find out what the current revision is and how unusual it is to still be on an older one.
    watch_serverStart monitoring an MCP server on the caller's Toolpin account, so they are emailed when it changes or stops answering. Needs an API key. Says so plainly if the account is already at its plan limit rather than failing.
