MCP apps
Connect Aden to Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, VS Code and other MCP clients. One click for the clients that support an install deeplink, copy-paste config for the rest.
What it is
Aden exposes a hosted MCP server (https://mcp.aden.space/mcp) with tools over
your catalog and team. Read tracks, draft campaigns, and schedule social posts
(Lite or higher). The Apps page lists every client you can point at it and
walks you through connecting one.
One-click setup
Clients that support an install deeplink or a single CLI command get a primary action at the top of their setup section, and a 1-click badge in the apps list:
| Client | Action | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Cursor | Add to Cursor | Opens Cursor's install dialog with the Aden server pre-filled. Confirm, then sign in. |
| VS Code | Add to VS Code | Opens VS Code's mcp/install dialog with the HTTP server pre-filled. |
| LM Studio | Add to LM Studio | Opens LM Studio's add-MCP dialog with the Aden server pre-filled. |
| Goose | Add to Goose | Opens Goose with the Aden streamable-HTTP extension pre-filled. |
| Claude Code | Copy install command | claude mcp add aden --transport http <url> |
| Gemini CLI | Copy install command | gemini mcp add aden <url> --transport http |
The chat apps can't be one-click (yet)
ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity have no documented install deeplink. A custom connector is always name + URL typed into a dialog. They get the next best thing: the server URL with a copy button, next to a link that lands on the exact settings page.
| Client | Settings link |
|---|---|
| ChatGPT | https://chatgpt.com/#settings/Connectors (Developer mode, Plus/Pro/Business+) |
| Claude | https://claude.ai/customize/connectors (owners: https://claude.ai/admin-settings/connectors) |
| Perplexity | https://www.perplexity.ai/account/connectors (Pro/Enterprise) |
The only real one-click path for these is getting listed in their directories (ChatGPT apps directory, Claude connectors directory): a submission, not a link we can build.
Windsurf's windsurf://windsurf-mcp-registry?serverName=… deeplink only opens registry-listed servers, so it can't carry a custom URL either. Cline, Zed, Continue and Raycast expose no install deeplink.
Every client still shows the manual steps and the raw config below the one-click action. The deeplink is a shortcut, not the only path.
Authentication
The install only registers the server. The first tool call triggers an OAuth sign-in with your Aden account, and access is scoped to the teams you belong to. For programmatic access use an API key instead.
API & MCP access
Developer access layer. API keys for external SDK integrations, OAuth 2.0 for MCP clients, and per-team MCP tool connections backed by `team_app_integrations`.
Browser extension
Manifest V3 Chrome extension that collects tracks into DJ crates while you dig on YouTube, SoundCloud, Spotify, Bandcamp and Beatport, and saves demos, media and contacts from any page.
