MCP in NappAI

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that many apps use to offer ready-made tools for an AI agent: look something up in a CRM, create a task, search documentation, check a domain… Each app publishes its MCP server and any compatible assistant can connect to it.

In NappAI, MCP works both ways:

DirectionWhat you getPage
Use MCP serversYour agents and flows use the tools another app publishes, without a dedicated component for it.Use MCP servers
Publish your MCP serverAssistants such as Claude, Cursor or Visual Studio Code use the tools you built in NappAI, with your credentials.Publish your tools

This is how both are done, end to end:

What you see in the video

  1. An agent that suggests brand names gets, from the MCPs category of the palette, the Find-A-Domain server, which checks whether a domain is free.
  2. Its credential is created, its Tool output is connected to the agent’s tools and the check_domain tool is chosen, with its data marked for the AI to fill in.
  3. In the playground, the agent suggests five names and checks each domain with the MCP server.
  4. In another flow, a warehouse stock lookup is published with the MCP Server component. The API Access window gives the server address and the steps to connect it.
  5. An external assistant sees the published tool, uses it, and gets the answer from the deployed flow.
  • MCP Connection: the component that connects to an MCP server.
  • MCPServer: the component that publishes your tools.
