Use this flow for any MCP client that supports remote MCP servers and OAuth.
#1. Copy the server URL
Open Bigmind, go to Personal integrations, then select Bigmind MCP. Copy the remote MCP server URL.
https://api.bigmind.ai/mcp
#2. Add Bigmind to your client
Paste the URL into your MCP client's remote server or custom connector setup. Most clients can start OAuth with only the server URL. Leave OAuth client ID and OAuth client secret blank unless your client explicitly requires a pre-registered OAuth app.
Use the dedicated setup guide for your client: Cursor, Claude, or ChatGPT.
#3. Authorize Bigmind
The client redirects you to Bigmind. Sign in, choose the workspace this MCP connection should use, then approve the requested scopes.
#4. Ask a question
Try asking your client to check who you are, summarize recent meetings, inspect pipeline activity, or search the Bigmind library.
#Advanced tools
The default URL exposes the core Bigmind MCP tools. Optional groups can be added with repeated tools query parameters. A write scope also grants the matching read scope during OAuth.
https://api.bigmind.ai/mcp
https://api.bigmind.ai/mcp?tools=lists.read
https://api.bigmind.ai/mcp?tools=lists.write
https://api.bigmind.ai/mcp?tools=library_content.write&tools=library_templates.write&tools=coaching.write&tools=analysis_config.write
You can configure advanced URLs from the Bigmind MCP integration page, or build them manually from the Tools reference.
