Connect Claude or Codex to your knowledge

Last updated 25 October 2026

Your business's published knowledge can answer you inside Claude, Claude Code and Codex, as well as in Software Station AI's own chat. Your assistant connects through MCP, the standard way AI assistants reach other systems, and you sign in as yourself. It can then find the right business, search its knowledge and read whole documents, and file new ones when the connection is approved for writing.

The address

Everyone uses the same address:

https://mcp.softwarestation.ai/mcp

When you connect, you sign in with your ordinary Software Station AI account at auth.softwarestation.ai and approve the access shown on a consent page. One connection reaches every business you are a member of, now and later. The connection carries no access of its own: your membership supplies it, and it is checked on every call, so someone removed from a business loses access to it from their next request.

If you connected earlier at a business's own /t/<slug>/mcp address, that connection keeps working for that one business.

Claude

In Claude, open Customize › Connectors, choose Add custom connector and enter the address above. Leave the OAuth client ID and secret blank. Choose Connect, sign in and approve, then turn the connector on for the conversation. On Team and Enterprise plans, an owner first adds the address under Organization settings › Connectors; each member then connects it for themselves.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http softwarestation https://mcp.softwarestation.ai/mcp
claude mcp login softwarestation
claude mcp get softwarestation

The sign-in opens in your browser. get should report Connected.

Codex

codex mcp add softwarestation --url https://mcp.softwarestation.ai/mcp

Complete the sign-in and consent if Codex opens them. If it does not, run codex mcp login softwarestation.

Your first question

Ask your assistant to list your businesses, then to list a business's collections and search one by name. Every tool after list_businesses works in the one business it names, so if more than one of yours could fit, your assistant should ask you which you mean.

The tools

Tool	What it does
`list_businesses`	Lists the active businesses you are a member of, with each one’s id and name.
`list_collections`	Lists a business’s collections, with each one’s id, name, description, document count and last update.
`search`	Returns the passages that best answer a question, with the document each came from, its collections, dates and page. Your assistant writes the answer from them.
`get_document`	Returns one document’s full text, up to 50,000 characters, and says so with truncated when it is cut short.
`add_document`	Files new text into a collection and publishes it, so it can be searched once it has been processed.

A connection approved for reading only is not given add_document. Every tool reaches only documents that are Live, enabled and unexpired, and only in the business named.

If something is not right

Opening the address in a browser shows an error. That is expected: it answers only assistants that have signed in, and tells them where to sign in.
Your assistant finds no businesses. Your account is not yet a member of a business. Ask your business's administrator to add you, then ask again.
A document you expect is missing. Only published, enabled and unexpired documents can be searched, and a newly filed one becomes searchable once it has been processed.

Anything else, write to hello@softwarestation.ai.
