MCP

Sidechat in your AI assistant

Add one MCP server to Claude Code, claude.ai, Codex, Cursor or VS Code Copilot, and your assistant can use everything your workspace can.

  1. 01

    Add the server

    In Claude Code, run the command below. In claude.ai, Codex, Cursor or VS Code Copilot, add the same URL as a custom MCP server.

    claude mcp add --transport http sidechat https://canopy.side.chat/mcp

  2. 02

    Sign in

    Your client opens a Sidechat sign-in page. Tool calls then run as you, with your workspace's permissions, so arguments never carry organization or user IDs.

  3. 03

    Two tools, the whole catalog

    Your assistant gets search_tools and execute_tool instead of hundreds of definitions. It searches in plain words, such as “publish website”, gets ranked matches with their input schemas, and calls the one it picked.

  4. 04

    Fewer tokens

    The two definitions take 648 tokens. Listing every tool on a standard workspace would take 122,572, about 189 times more, before your conversation starts.

  5. 05

    Same guardrails

    Anything your assistant does through MCP goes through the same approvals and audit trail as your agents.
