The basics

Three steps to connected

The same flow for every server in the family.

Request a demo

Access is invitation-only, per server. Request a demo and we'll allowlist your email for the servers your engagement covers.

Add the endpoint

Copy the server's endpoint — in the form https://mcp-<name>.kscope.io/mcp/ — into your client's connector settings or MCP config.

Sign in

On first use, your client opens a sign-in tab. Enter your allowlisted email, click the one-time link, and every tool activates in your session.

Setup

Set it up in your client

Pick your client — the endpoint URL is the only thing you need.

claude.ai (web)

Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, paste the endpoint URL, and sign in with your allowlisted email. No token to paste — OAuth is handled for you.

Claude Desktop & Code

Add the server to the mcpServers block in your config (snippet below), then restart. Your client handles the email sign-in on first use.

Cursor

Open Settings → MCP → Add new server, choose HTTP, and paste the endpoint URL. Complete the email sign-in when prompted.

Grok CLI & any MCP client

Anything that speaks MCP over HTTP works — point it at the endpoint URL and complete the one-time email sign-in.

Config

The `mcpServers` snippet

For Claude Desktop / Code and other config-based clients — add an entry per server you're entitled to.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kaleidoscope-<name>": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp-<name>.kscope.io/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

No API key or bearer token — authentication is a one-time email sign-in your client opens in the browser. Add more servers by adding more entries (e.g. kaleidoscope-funding → https://mcp-funding.kscope.io/mcp/).

Endpoints

Which endpoint do I use?

Each server lives on its own subdomain, in the form https://mcp-<name>.kscope.io/mcp/. Open a server's page for its exact endpoint and tools.

Good to know

Three things that help

Not sure which tool?

Call discover_tools — a semantic catalog that maps your plain-English question to the right call.

Safe to auto-approve

Every tool is read-only and side-effect-free, so well-behaved clients can auto-approve the whole server.

Ask for any date

Every server is point-in-time and cited — ask "as of" a past date and you get what was knowable then.
