MCP Servers
Connect to Model Context Protocol servers for rich tool integrations. MCP servers provide structured access to services like GitHub, Linear, and Notion.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard for connecting AI models to external tools and data sources. MCP servers expose tools that TorlyAI can use during conversations, enabling actions like creating GitHub issues, querying databases, or managing tasks in Linear.

Transport Types
stdio
Runs a local process and communicates via stdin/stdout. Best for local MCP servers.
{
"transport": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"]
}HTTP
Connects to a remote HTTP endpoint. Good for hosted MCP servers.
{
"transport": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.example.com/api"
}Configuration File
MCP server configurations are stored in:
~/.torlyai/workspaces/{id}/sources/{slug}/config.json
