Connecting an app

Connecting works the same way in every app:

  1. In the app's settings, add a new connector (MCP server) and enter the address https://mcp.kotisivukamu.fi
  2. The app opens Kotisivukamu's login page. Log in with your own account. If you do not have an account yet, choose Create account
  3. If you have no team, give the team a name and accept the terms
  4. Choose whether the app can access the whole team's sites and documents or only chosen sites, and choose the level: Read, Edit, or Edit and publish. Edit is selected by default
  5. Approve, and you return to the app with the connection in use

If you use the service at kamu.build, enter the address https://mcp.kamu.build. You then log in on the kamu.build dashboard, where you are usually signed in already. The other steps are the same.

The login page shows the app's name and the address you return to after approving. The app states its name itself, so only approve access if you started the connection yourself.

A connection is valid for 90 days. After that the app asks you to log in again.

If you do not have an account​

You can connect an app even if you do not have a Kotisivukamu account yet. On the login page, choose Create account and enter your email address. The account is created when you enter the code sent to that address.

The connection then asks you to create a team. The name of your company or project, or your own name, usually works as the team name. You can add billing details at the same time, but they are only needed when you order something. You can also add them later in the team settings.

A new team has no sites yet. Whole team is selected by default, and it also covers sites the team gets later.

Claude​

On Claude.ai, custom connectors are added under Connectors in the settings with Add custom connector. Name it, for example, Kotisivukamu and enter the address https://mcp.kotisivukamu.fi. Menu names may change, so Claude's own documentation has the exact steps.

ChatGPT​

In ChatGPT, custom MCP connectors are added in the apps and connectors section of the settings, and this may require developer mode. Enter the address https://mcp.kotisivukamu.fi. ChatGPT's own documentation has the exact steps.

Claude Code​

Add the connector on the command line:

claude mcp add --transport http kotisivukamu https://mcp.kotisivukamu.fi

Restart Claude Code, type /mcp, select kotisivukamu and then Authenticate. To have the connector in every folder, add -s user to the command.

If no browser opens​

If the app cannot open a browser, for example on a server or in a virtual machine, open the address it shows yourself and approve access.

After approving, the browser returns to an address starting with http://localhost:. If you opened the login on a different device from the one the app runs on, this address does not open. Copy it from the browser's address bar and open it on the app's machine, for example with curl "<address>". The address is valid for a few minutes.
