Connect your agent

Point your agent at Outer's MCP endpoint — one line per client, OAuth or emailed code.

Your agent talks to Outer over MCP at https://outer.now/mcp (Streamable HTTP, OAuth 2.1). The first account tool call starts sign-in. After that the agent retries and keeps going.

Client setup

Client Setup
Claude Code claude mcp add --transport http outer https://outer.now/mcp, then run /mcp in Claude Code, pick outer and sign in in the browser that opens
claude.ai, Desktop, mobile Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → https://outer.now/mcp
Codex CLI, IDE, ChatGPT desktop app codex mcp add outer --url https://outer.now/mcp, then codex mcp login outer
Perplexity Settings → Connectors → add a custom MCP connector with https://outer.now/mcp (tested: OAuth sign-in, then @Outer build me …)
ChatGPT (chatgpt.com) Add a custom connector with https://outer.now/mcp and sign in (tested)
Gemini Add a custom MCP server with https://outer.now/mcp and sign in (tested)
Anything else OAuth if supported, else the emailed-code fallback (see Sign in)

How sign-in works

Claude, Codex, ChatGPT and Perplexity use OAuth. Your client opens Outer’s sign-in page:

  1. Enter your email and the emailed code.
  2. Accept the terms on first sign-in.
  3. Approve the client.

Clients without OAuth use two MCP tools instead. Details in Sign in.

When a limit or refusal hits, the tool result carries a user_message written for you. Your agent relays it word for word.

What your agent builds

One of two starters (Pick a template): the interactive app (Ilha and Void: lists, dashboards, anything with accounts), or the website (Astro content site: landing pages, portfolios, blogs). Name which one in your first prompt; the default is app.

Building it? The agent reads Agents → Quickstart.
