SMOC MCP (Model Context Protocol) exposes your company's SMOC data to AI clients over https://v2.api.smoc.ai/mcp. Access is confined to your tenant. Keys are read-only by default; writes including inbox send are opt-in.

Supported clients include:

  • Claude Desktop — typically via mcp-remote and a local bridge (see the eGuide for HTTP config).
  • Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and other MCP-capable editors.

Setup summary:

  • Generate a key under Settings → Integrations → MCP in SMOC Console. You can optionally name it and set an expiry. Copy it immediately — it is shown only once. Issued keys are listed on that page so you can revoke them later.
  • Add the MCP server URL and key to your client's MCP configuration following that client's format.
  • Clients discover available tools via mcp_capabilities and skills_search, or you can ask in plain language.

Full setup steps are in the MCP connection eGuide.
