MCP

MCP servers connect Clovis to tools or data sources authorized by your organization. For example, they can search for information in a business service or perform an action exposed by that service.

Enable a server in a conversation

  1. In the input area, select MCP Servers.
  2. Enable only the server or servers needed for your task.
  3. Write a request that clearly states the information or action you need.
  4. Check the result before reusing it or performing an action with an impact.

A server that does not appear in the list may not be shared with your account or agent.

Add an MCP server

If your permissions allow it, open MCP Servers, then select +.

Form for adding an MCP server in Clovis

Enter the server name, description, and URL, then choose:

  • the transport offered by the server, such as Streamable HTTPS or SSE;
  • the appropriate authentication method: automatic detection, API key, OAuth, or On-Behalf-Of;
  • the trust confirmation requested by the interface.

Select Create, then test the connection and exposed tools before associating them with an agent.

External connectors

Add only servers approved by your organization. Check their owner, URL, accessible data, and permitted actions. Never enter a key or secret directly in a conversation.
