Chat connections
Your bookmarks, in your chat.
Connect SaveThat to a chat app that supports remote MCP with OAuth. Find saved links, read your notes, and explore related ideas without leaving the conversation.
Read-only access. Sign in with SaveThat. No CLI installation or API key needed.
Connect SaveThat
- Open your chat app's connectors, integrations, or MCP settings and add a remote server.
- Use SaveThat as the name and paste this server URL. Select Streamable HTTP if your app asks for a transport:
MCP server URL
https://savethat.app/api/mcp - Choose OAuth authentication if your app asks. This server supports automatic client registration; you do not need a SaveThat API key or client secret. Sign in to SaveThat, review the requested access, and select Allow read access.
- Enable the connection in your conversation. Ask: “Find my saved bookmarks about product design and include the original links.” Then follow up: “Read the second result and show me its key points.”
Your client must support Streamable HTTP, OAuth authorization code with PKCE, and dynamic client registration. Settings and availability vary by app, version, and plan. If your app only offers a command to run locally, check its documentation for remote MCP support.
Connect in ChatGPT web
Tested with ChatGPT web. Custom MCP availability depends on your account, plan, and workspace settings.
- Open Plugins, select Add, then Add custom MCP server.
- Name it SaveThat, paste the server URL above, and select OAuth. A client ID and client secret are not required.
- For the optional icon, download the SaveThat icon and upload it. It is a 256 × 256 PNG under 10 KB. The server also advertises this icon to clients that support MCP icon metadata.
- Review ChatGPT's notice, select Create as a plugin, then Connect SaveThat. On SaveThat's consent screen, select Allow read access.
- Start a new chat. Use Add files and more, search for SaveThat, and select it before asking about your saved links.
Recorded with a real saved bookmark and real ChatGPT responses. Waiting time is trimmed. If an existing connection still shows a generic icon, use ChatGPT's icon upload when setting up the connection.
What your chat can access
- Search saved bookmarks by keyword and meaning, or browse with collection, tag, source, domain, and date filters.
- Read bookmark details, notes, summaries, and extracted content.
- Find related bookmarks, list collections, and check your account's capacity.
Search combines keyword and semantic retrieval by default; your chat can also request either mode separately. When semantic retrieval is unavailable, the tool reports that limitation. Related-bookmark results include similarity scores and the cutoff used. Meaning-based results depend on the analysis available in your library.
The connection is read-only. It cannot create, edit, or delete bookmarks. An empty search result does not establish that you have never saved something on that topic.
Which AI answers?
Your chat app chooses which SaveThat tools to call and uses its own model to write the answer. Ask it to include the original bookmark links so you can check the sources.
The CLI's agent ask command calls SaveThat's own AI agent instead. That command is separate from this MCP connection. The CLI and Relay API use API keys; MCP uses your signed-in approval.
If the connection needs attention
- If you see a bearer token or custom header field, use the client's OAuth sign-in flow rather than pasting your CLI key.
- If tools are missing after an update, refresh the server's tool list or reconnect using your client's settings.
- If the library looks unfamiliar, check the SaveThat account you approved. Stored bookmark sources and currently connected import accounts can differ.
You control access
Each connection uses your own SaveThat account. Your password and CLI API keys are never shared with the chat app. Content returned to your chat is handled under that app's privacy policy. You can manage connected chat apps and disconnect them at any time. Connections expire after 30 days without renewal.
For terminal access and API keys, use the CLI guide.
