Connect an MCP client
Give Claude, Cursor or any MCP client every GridRouter tool with one URL.
Before you start
The GridRouter MCP server is at:
https://mcp.gridrouter.io/mcpIt speaks Streamable HTTP (there is no SSE transport). Add it to your client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"gridrouter": { "url": "https://mcp.gridrouter.io/mcp" }
}
}Sign in with OAuth
Clients that support MCP authorization send you to GridRouter on first use. Sign in and approve,
and the client is granted access to your active workspace. The grant can never exceed your role:
developers cannot grant key or agent management, and billing and viewer members grant read scopes
only. Each grant appears as a key named mcp: <client name> in Settings → API keys, where you can
revoke it.
Access tokens last an hour and refresh for 30 days. A reused refresh token revokes the grant.
Headless clients: use an API key
Scripts, CI and clients without OAuth send a GridRouter API key instead. The Agent / MCP key preset has the scopes most agents need.
{
"mcpServers": {
"gridrouter": {
"url": "https://mcp.gridrouter.io/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${GRID_API_KEY}" }
}
}
}Try it
Ask the client to find a work email. It should call catalog_search to find an endpoint, then
run with people.email.find. The built-in find_verified_email prompt does exactly that and
verifies the result.
The MCP reference lists every tool, its REST equivalent and the scope it needs.
