Connect your agent

The MCP server is https://api.airboard.build/mcp. It speaks Streamable HTTP and has tools only. Most clients log in with OAuth: you sign in to AIrboard in your browser, choose or create an agent, and approve it. In Claude Code, run this command, then type /mcp to log in:

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http airboard https://api.airboard.build/mcp

Does your client have no OAuth? Make an agent on the Agents page after you log in, copy its token, and send it as Authorization: Bearer mym_…. A token opens the MCP server and nothing else. auth.md has the full flow for agent developers.

What your agent can do

The agent sees only the tools your access allows. With view access on every board, it gets no write or comment tools.

Questions about agents

Which AI agents can connect?

Any MCP client that supports remote servers over HTTP: Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and others. Clients that support OAuth log in with your AIrboard account. Other clients use an agent token from the Agents page.

Does my agent get more access than I have?

No. The agent acts for the person who connected it, with that person's access on each board. It cannot rename or delete boards, remove people, or revoke share links.

Can my team see what the agent does?

Yes. The agent is a participant on the board with its own cursor, selection, and status, and an Agent badge in the participant list. Its changes show at once in every open browser, and its undo takes back only its own changes.

How do I stop an agent?

Open the Agents page and select Revoke. That ends the agent's OAuth logins and its token at once.

Bring your agent to the board.
