Claude on the web, desktop and mobile
  1. Open Customize, then Connectors. On the web the page is claude.ai/customize/connectors. In Claude Desktop, select Customize in the sidebar first.
  2. Click + Add, then Add custom connector. Some accounts show Add, then Custom, then Web instead.
  3. Name it Orbylon and enter https://orbylon.com/api/mcp as the remote MCP server URL. Click Continue.
  4. Under Authentication, choose No sign in. Leave Request headers empty and the transport under Advanced at its default.
  5. Click Add.
  6. In a chat, click + at the lower left, open Connectors and switch Orbylon on. When Claude asks before using a tool, choose Allow once or Always allow.
Notes for Claude

Who can: Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise. A Free account can add one custom connector.

Each tool can be set on its own: in Customize > Connectors, open Orbylon and, under Tool permissions, choose Always allow, Needs approval or Blocked. Keep place_order and request_quote on Needs approval, because each sends a real message to a real business.

On Team and Enterprise, an owner adds it once for the whole organization, under Organization settings > Connectors (Add, then Custom, then Web), with the same name, address and No sign in. Each member then opens Customize > Connectors, finds Orbylon with the Custom label and clicks Connect. On Enterprise, a member whose custom role manages the organization's libraries can add it too. Other members cannot add a custom connector themselves.

On a phone: the connector belongs to your Claude account, so once it is added on the web or in Claude Desktop, it is there the next time you sign in to the Claude app on iOS or Android.

Claude Code
In a terminalEvery project: add --scope user
claude mcp add --transport http orbylon https://orbylon.com/api/mcp
Then, in a session
> /mcp
orbylon  connected
Or in .mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbylon": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Notes for Claude Code

The command adds Orbylon to the project you are in. To share it with your team through the repository, use --scope project, which writes a .mcp.json file at its root.

Check it with claude mcp list, or type /mcp inside a session, where Orbylon should show as connected.

Writing .mcp.json yourself? The block above is the whole file. Keep "type": "http" in it: without it, Claude Code reads the entry as a local program, which is a configuration error.

Added Orbylon on claude.ai already? Claude Code picks it up when you sign in with a claude.ai subscription, though not when you use an API key.

ChatGPT
  1. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins, select the plus button, then Add custom MCP server. If that option is missing, your workspace may not allow it: on Enterprise, an admin turns on Create plugins with MCPs under Workspace settings > Permissions & roles.
  2. Enter a name and a description. Under Connection, enter https://orbylon.com/api/mcp as the server URL.
  3. Under Authentication, select No authentication. Read the risk warning, then select I understand and want to continue.
  4. Select Create as a plugin and look over the tools ChatGPT found.
  5. Open your personal plugins, open the new plugin and select the plus button to install it.
  6. On the home page, switch the top tab from Chat to Work, start a new Work chat, type @ and pick the plugin.
Notes for ChatGPT

Who can: The plugin directory is on every ChatGPT plan. Adding your own MCP server follows your account and workspace policies, and on Enterprise the permission for it is off by default.

OpenAI also documents a second route, an app made in developer mode under Settings > Apps > Create, on ChatGPT on the web for Business, Enterprise and Edu (Pro can connect in developer mode with read and fetch permissions only). Developer mode belongs to that route, not to the plugin steps above. Whichever screen you get, the two settings that matter are the server URL and No authentication.

Cursor
  1. Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json to have Orbylon in every project, or .cursor/mcp.json inside one project to share it through git. Create the file if it is not there.
  2. Add the orbylon entry below under mcpServers and save.
  3. Restart Cursor, open Customize in the sidebar, click MCPs and check that orbylon is switched on.
  4. Ask the Agent something that needs Orbylon. Depending on your Cursor version and its Approvals & Execution setting, Cursor asks you first or lets a safety check decide. To approve every call yourself, choose Allowlist there and leave the allowlist empty.
  5. If it does not connect, open the Output panel (Ctrl+Shift+U, or Cmd+Shift+U on a Mac) and choose MCP Logs.
In mcp.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbylon": {
      "url": "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Notes for Cursor

On a Cursor Enterprise team, an admin can limit which server URLs are allowed, under Team Settings > MCP Configuration.

VS Code with GitHub Copilot
  1. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) and run MCP: Add Server.
  2. Enter https://orbylon.com/api/mcp as the URL and orbylon as the name, then save it to .mcp.json in your workspace or to Copilot Global.
  3. Trust the server when VS Code asks.
  4. Open the Chat view (Ctrl+Alt+I), use the agent and select Configure Tools to see the Orbylon tools.
  5. If it does not connect, run MCP: List Servers, pick orbylon and choose Show Output.
Or write it yourself in .vscode/mcp.json. VS Code still reads that file, though Add Server now lists it as deprecated.
{
  "servers": {
    "orbylon": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Notes for VS Code

Who can: Copilot Free, Pro, Pro+ and Max. On Copilot Business or Enterprise, an owner first turns on the MCP servers in Copilot policy, which is off by default. Needs VS Code 1.99 or later.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop)
  1. If you have the Devin CLI, run the command below.
  2. Or edit ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (Windows: %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json). Older Cascade tabs open the same file from the ... menu at the top right of the Cascade panel (Open MCP config file, in the MCPs section).
  3. Add the orbylon entry below under mcpServers and save.
In a terminal, with the Devin CLI:
devin mcp add -s user orbylon https://orbylon.com/api/mcp
In mcp_config.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbylon": {
      "url": "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Notes for Windsurf

Windsurf's documentation now calls the editor Devin Desktop. On Enterprise, MCP has to be switched on in settings first, and Team admins can turn it off or limit it to an allowlist.

OpenAI Codex
  1. In a terminal, run the command below, or add the block below to ~/.codex/config.toml (or to .codex/config.toml in a project).
  2. In the ChatGPT desktop app, open Settings > MCP servers > Add server. Enter a name, choose Streamable HTTP, enter the URL, save, then select Restart.
  3. Type /mcp in the composer to see the servers that are connected.
In a terminal:
codex mcp add orbylon --url https://orbylon.com/api/mcp
Or in config.toml:
[mcp_servers.orbylon]
url = "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
Gemini CLI
  1. Run the command below. With --scope user it works in every project. Without it, Gemini CLI writes it into the project's .gemini/settings.json.
  2. Check it with gemini mcp list, or type /mcp inside a session to see Orbylon and its tools.
In a terminal:
gemini mcp add --transport http --scope user orbylon https://orbylon.com/api/mcp
Or by hand, in ~/.gemini/settings.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbylon": {
      "httpUrl": "https://orbylon.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Notes for Gemini CLI

Keep --transport http: the command's default is for local servers. In settings.json the key is httpUrl, because url means the older SSE transport.

Gemini CLI asks before each tool call unless the server is marked trust: true. Leave that off: place_order and request_quote each send a real message to a real business.

Perplexity
  1. Go to Account settings > Connectors.
  2. Click + Custom connector at the top right and select Remote.
  3. Name: Orbylon. MCP Server URL: https://orbylon.com/api/mcp. Authentication: None. Transport: Streamable HTTP.
  4. Tick the acknowledgement box and click Add.
  5. Click the connector card to start setup and switch it on.
Notes for Perplexity

Who can: Pro, Max and Enterprise. In an Enterprise organization, members can add their own only after an admin turns on Allow members to add custom connectors, which is off by default.

An admin adding it for the whole organization goes to Enterprise settings > Permissions > Connectors permissions instead.

Mistral Vibe (chat.mistral.ai)
  1. Open the Connectors page, click + Add Connector and switch to the Custom MCP Connector tab.
  2. Connector name: orbylon, with no spaces or special characters. Server URL: https://orbylon.com/api/mcp. The description is optional.
  3. Click Connect. Mistral works out the authentication by itself, and Orbylon needs none.
  4. Optional: under Connectors > My Connectors, open the Orbylon card, then the Functions tab, and set Always allow on the functions that only read.
Notes for Mistral

Who can: Only an administrator can add a custom connector. On Free, Pro and Student, the account owner is the administrator. On an organization plan, an admin adds it.

Microsoft Copilot Studio
  1. Open your agent and go to its Tools page.
  2. Select Add a tool, then New tool, then Model Context Protocol.
  3. Fill in a server name, a description (the agent reads it to decide when to call Orbylon) and the server URL https://orbylon.com/api/mcp.
  4. Set Authentication to None and select Create.
  5. In the Add tool dialog, select Create a new connection, then Add to agent.
Notes for Copilot Studio

Your organization's Power Platform data policies apply to MCP servers the same way they apply to connectors.
