Connect your AI assistant

Web app (chatgpt.com)

Requires a paid ChatGPT plan with Developer mode (Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu). In Business and Enterprise workspaces an admin may need to allow it first.

1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings > Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click the + button to create a new connection.
3. Enter a name (e.g. "popgunservers") and a short description, choose MCP server URL as the connection and paste the server URL below, then click Create.
4. ChatGPT opens the PopGun login page. Sign in and approve access (see the sign-in step above); read-only is the default.
5. Review the tools ChatGPT discovered, then start a new chat, click + in the composer, pick popgunservers and ask about your game server or account.

Consumer app

Custom connectors require a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise) - not available on the free plan.

1. In Claude, click the + icon under the prompt box, then choose Add connector.
2. Select Add custom connector at the bottom of the directory.
3. Enter a name and paste the server URL below, then click Add.
4. Claude opens a browser window asking you to log in to your PopGun account and approve access - this happens automatically because the server requires sign-in (see the sign-in step above).
5. Enable the connector for the chat and ask a question about your game server or account.

CLI

Available on any Claude Code install (API key or Claude subscription login).

1. Open a terminal in any project directory.
2. Run: claude mcp add --transport http popgunservers https://popgunservers.com/mcp - this only saves the config; no browser opens yet.
3. Run claude mcp list - it shows "! Needs authentication" until you sign in.
4. Start Claude Code, run /mcp, and select popgunservers to open a browser window and log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
5. Ask Claude Code to search the knowledge base.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "popgunservers": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://popgunservers.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

CLI

Works on any Codex CLI install; the same config is shared with the ChatGPT desktop app's MCP settings and the Codex IDE extension.

1. Open ~/.codex/config.toml (or a project-scoped .codex/config.toml).
2. Add a [mcp_servers.popgunservers] table with the url below (auth defaults to oauth).
3. Run codex mcp login popgunservers - a browser window opens to log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
4. Run codex mcp list to confirm the server connected.

[mcp_servers.popgunservers]
url = "https://popgunservers.com/mcp"

CLI

Works on any GitHub Copilot plan, including Copilot Free.

1. Open a terminal in any directory.
2. Run: copilot mcp add --transport http popgunservers https://popgunservers.com/mcp - this only saves the config; no browser opens yet.
3. Start copilot and run /mcp - on first use a browser window opens to log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
4. Run /mcp again to confirm popgunservers is connected, then ask Copilot to search the knowledge base.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "popgunservers": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://popgunservers.com/mcp",
      "tools": ["*"]
    }
  }

CLI

Free to use with a Google account; this is also the recommended option for Grok or other consumer apps that cannot add a custom MCP server directly (see note below).

1. Open ~/.gemini/settings.json (or your project's .gemini/settings.json).
2. Add an mcpServers entry for popgunservers using httpUrl, as shown below (no oauth block needed - it is discovered automatically).
3. Restart Gemini CLI and run /mcp - on first use a browser window opens to log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
4. Run /mcp again to confirm the server is connected.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "popgunservers": {
      "httpUrl": "https://popgunservers.com/mcp"
    }
  }

Not supported yet - cannot add a custom MCP server yet

The consumer grok.com / X app does not let ordinary users add a custom remote MCP server. The xAI developer API's remote MCP tools need a static bearer token, which PopGun does not yet let users create through self-service, so Grok cannot connect today.

1. Grok cannot be pointed at a custom knowledge base from the consumer app or the xAI developer API today.
2. For a chat-style assistant without writing code, use Gemini CLI, Claude or ChatGPT instead - they sign in with your PopGun account directly.

IDE

Works on any Cursor plan.

1. Open Cursor Settings > MCP, or create an mcp.json file in your project or home directory.
2. Add a popgunservers entry with the url below (no auth object is needed - OAuth is discovered automatically).
3. Reopen the MCP settings panel and select Authenticate - a browser window opens to log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
4. Confirm the server shows as connected.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "popgunservers": {
      "url": "https://popgunservers.com/mcp"
    }
  }

IDE

Requires the GitHub Copilot Chat extension; works on any Copilot plan that has agent mode.

1. Create or open .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace (or run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette).
2. Add a popgunservers server with type http and the url below.
3. Save the file, then select Authenticate when prompted - a browser window opens to log in to your PopGun account and approve access.
4. VS Code then discovers the tools automatically and lists them in the chat's tool picker.

{
  "servers": {
    "popgunservers": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://popgunservers.com/mcp"
