# MCP Servers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An MCP server gives your agents extra tools — things like searching a database, calling an API, or reading a service you use. Add them in **Settings → MCP**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Add a server
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Open **Settings → MCP**.
|
||
|
|
2. Add a server and choose its type:
|
||
|
|
- **local** — OpenChamber runs a command on your machine. You give it the command to run and, if needed, environment variables.
|
||
|
|
- **remote** — OpenChamber connects to a URL someone else hosts. You give it the URL and any headers it needs (for example an auth token).
|
||
|
|
3. Save. The server is on by default; you can turn it off without deleting it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Where it applies
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pick the scope when you add a server:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **personal** — available in every project
|
||
|
|
- **project** — available only in the current project, and saved alongside the project's other settings
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Server names use lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.
