What is this

The plain version

MCP is just a safe doorway that lets your AI app talk to Riley. Connect it once, and you can ask your AI to use Riley, then get proof back of what it did. That is the whole idea.

Three steps

Connect in about two minutes

No setup call, no code. Get a key, paste it in, and ask.

1

Get your Riley key

Sign in to Riley and open AI Access. Click to create a key. It starts with rmcp_. Copy it and keep it handy. Riley shows a key once, so save it somewhere safe.

2

Paste it into your AI

Pick your app below and copy its little config. Paste it into that app, then put your key where it says YOUR_RILEY_KEY. That is the only part you fill in.

3

Ask Riley

Open your AI and type something like "Ask Riley to check my Google reviews and draft replies." Riley does the work and hands back proof. Anything sensitive still waits for your approval.

Pick your app

Copy the config for your AI

Find your app, hit copy, and paste it where the app keeps its connections. Replace YOUR_RILEY_KEY with the key from step one.

Claude Desktop

Live

In Claude Desktop, open Settings, then Developer, then Edit config. Paste this and restart the app.

claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "riley": {
      "url": "https://app.hireriley.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "YOUR_RILEY_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Live

In Cursor, open Settings, then MCP, then Add new server. Paste this in.

Cursor MCP server
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "riley": {
      "url": "https://app.hireriley.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "YOUR_RILEY_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Live

Claude Code runs in your terminal. Paste this one line and swap in your key. One command, then you are done.

terminal
claude mcp add riley \
  --url https://app.hireriley.com/mcp \
  --header "x-api-key: YOUR_RILEY_KEY"

ChatGPT

Where supported

In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors, then Add a custom MCP server. Paste these two lines. Whether this is available depends on your ChatGPT plan.

ChatGPT custom connector
Server URL   https://app.hireriley.com/mcp
Header       x-api-key: YOUR_RILEY_KEY

Using a different AI app? Anything that speaks MCP can connect the same way. Point it at https://app.hireriley.com/mcp and send your key as the x-api-key header.

Not working

Quick things to check

Ninety percent of the time it is one of these four.

  • Your key must start with rmcp_. If it does not, you copied the wrong thing. Go back to AI Access in Riley and copy the full key.
  • Paste it exactly. No extra spaces before or after, and no line breaks in the middle of the key. It is easy to grab a stray space, so double check.
  • Restart the app. Most AI apps only pick up a new connection after you close and reopen them once.
  • Some apps need MCP turned on. Look for a Developer or Connectors setting and make sure custom servers are allowed.
Good questions

A few quick answers

What is MCP?
MCP is a safe doorway that lets your AI app talk to Riley. Once it is connected, you can ask your AI to use Riley, and Riley hands back proof of what it did. You do not need to know how it works to use it.
Is it safe?
Yes. Your AI can only reach Riley's own tools, never your raw accounts. Anything that would change something outside your workspace, like posting a reply, waits for your approval first. Your key can be turned off at any time from your settings.
Do I need to code?
No. You copy your key, paste one small config into your AI app, and you are done. For most apps there is no code and no command line at all. Claude Code is the one that uses a single terminal line, and even that is just copy and paste.
Which apps work?
Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Cursor are live and verified. ChatGPT works where your ChatGPT plan supports custom connectors. Any other app that speaks MCP can connect the same way, using the same endpoint and key.

Get your key. Ask Riley.
