Connect dossaro to your research workflow
Add dossaro to Claude or ChatGPT and run source-backed register research from your own workspace.
The fastest cross-agent setup is a short bootstrap prompt. Paste this into a coding agent that can run commands or edit its own MCP configuration:
Review the dossaro MCP setup guide at https://dossaro.com/agent-setup/prompt.md and guide the user through the setup.The complete, publicly reviewable instructions are available as raw Markdown. They tell the current agent how to preserve existing configuration, add the dossaro remote MCP server and start OAuth.
Supported setup paths
The setup prompt includes explicit instructions for:
- Codex CLI, the Codex app and Codex IDE extension
- Claude Code
- Cursor
- GitHub Copilot in VS Code
- OpenCode
- Windsurf
- Other clients that support remote Streamable HTTP MCP servers
All clients connect to the same endpoint:
https://mcp.dossaro.com/mcpAuthentication
dossaro uses OAuth. A compatible MCP host discovers the authorization flow, opens the dossaro sign-in and consent page, and stores the resulting credential for that host. Do not put an API key, password or bearer token into MCP configuration.
After OAuth, reload or restart the agent if it does not immediately show the dossaro tools. The agent should then verify the connection with the unmetered get_capabilities tool.
Hosted Claude and ChatGPT
Claude.ai and ChatGPT web do not install arbitrary custom connectors by editing local files:
- Use Add dossaro to Claude for Claude's custom-connector flow.
- Use Add dossaro to ChatGPT for the current ChatGPT custom-app flow.
A public store listing is not required for these direct setup paths, but organization or workspace policy may disable custom connectors.
For tools, workflows and source limitations, see the Research MCP reference.
