Connect an AI agent (MCP)

Our Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets an artificial intelligence (AI) agent manage the instances, apps, Secure Shell (SSH) keys, and dedicated servers in your workspace through Open Authorization (OAuth), so the agent never sees your password.

Add the server

Select the app your agent runs in.

In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, and select Add custom connector. Name it GalaxyGate, paste the server address, and add it. If a dialog offers Sign in now, choose it. Then select Connect on the new connector and approve access in your browser.

Custom connectors work on every plan. The Free plan allows one. On Team and Enterprise, an owner adds the connector under Organization settings and each member then selects Connect on it.

claude mcp add --transport http galaxygate https://mcp.galaxygate.net/mcp

This adds the server to the current project. Add --scope user to use it in every project. Then run /mcp in Claude Code and approve access in your browser.

Claude Code on the web uses the connectors on your claude.ai account. Add the connector with the steps on the Claude tab, then start a session at claude.ai/code. A server added with claude mcp add stays on your computer and is not available in web sessions. Connector traffic goes through Anthropic, so your cloud environment needs no extra allowed domains.

In ChatGPT, open Plugins, select the plus button, then Add custom MCP server. Name it GalaxyGate, paste the server address, choose OAuth for authentication, accept the risk warning, and create it as a plugin. Install it from your personal plugins, then approve access when ChatGPT asks you to sign in. Installed plugins work in ChatGPT and in Codex in the desktop app. Your workspace permissions decide whether you can add a custom server.

To connect only Codex in the desktop app, open Settings, then MCP servers, and add a server named galaxygate of type Streamable HTTP with the server address. Restart, select Authenticate on it, and approve access. The desktop app shares this list with Codex CLI.

codex mcp add galaxygate --url https://mcp.galaxygate.net/mcp

This saves the server in ~/.codex/config.toml and starts the sign-in. If your browser does not open, open the address the command prints, then approve access.

To add it by hand instead, put these lines in that file and run codex mcp login galaxygate.

[mcp_servers.galaxygate]
url = "https://mcp.galaxygate.net/mcp"

Any other client that supports Streamable HTTP with OAuth works with the same address.

Approve access

Your browser opens an Application Access Request page. Check the address under Credentials will be sent to, select Allow Access, sign in to the panel if asked, and select Authorize.

What the agent can do

Area	Actions
Workspaces	List workspaces, read quotas, and manage SSH keys and recipes.
Instances	Create, update, power, upgrade, back up, and delete instances, and run scripts on them.
Apps	Create, start, stop, restart, and delete apps, and read their logs and metrics.
Dedicated servers	List and update dedicated servers, power cycle them, and reset their remote console.
Workflows	Check the status of tasks that take time to finish.

Scopes and revoking

The agent asks for these scopes. Each shows as Read & write on the approval page. You can clear one there, and tools that need it then fail with a message naming the scope.

Scope	What it covers
workspace:write	Your workspaces
instance:write	Your instances
app:write	Your apps
image:write	Your images
dedibox:write	Your dedicated servers

A connection lasts 30 days. After that, connect again.

To revoke access early, open the menu with your name in the panel, then Preferences, then Authorized Apps, and select Disconnect on its row. Access ends immediately.
