MCP

MCP setup

Connect Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude Code, and custom MCP clients.

Ramp MCP is a remote HTTP server. Most clients need the same production URL and then complete Ramp OAuth in a browser:

https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp

For sample data, substitute https://demo-mcp.ramp.com/mcp in any config below.

Cursor

Cursor supports remote MCP through mcp.json and one-click install deeplinks. Use the button, then approve the install prompt in Cursor:

Add to Cursor

Or add Ramp to ~/.cursor/mcp.json manually:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ramp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

From Cursor CLI, verify and authenticate MCP servers with:

agent mcp list
agent mcp login ramp
agent mcp list-tools ramp

Claude Code

Add the server to your session, then authorize:

claude mcp add --transport http ramp https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp

Run /mcp to verify that the Ramp server appears in your connected servers list.

Claude

Claude supports custom remote MCP connectors. Add Ramp from Claude's connector settings or directory, then authorize in the browser OAuth flow.

For custom setup, use the remote MCP URL:

https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp

Claude reaches custom connectors from Anthropic infrastructure, so local MCP servers need a public HTTPS tunnel. Ramp's production and demo servers are already public.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT connects through its connector UI. In Developer Mode or app connector setup, create or add a connector with the public MCP endpoint:

https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp

Authenticated Ramp MCP connections use browser OAuth. ChatGPT requires the server to be reachable over HTTPS.

Perplexity

Perplexity supports custom remote MCP connectors for eligible paid and enterprise plans. Add a custom connector with the Ramp MCP URL and choose the authentication method prompted by Perplexity:

https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp

Generic MCP JSON

Clients that read an MCP JSON config usually expect a shape like:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ramp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.ramp.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

See the Connectors pages for client-specific screens, reconnect steps, and demo setup notes.

Custom clients and gateways

Custom MCP clients — and third-party gateways like Glean, MintMCP, or GoSearch — must have their redirect URI allowlisted by Ramp before the OAuth flow can complete.

  • Use https:// or localhost / 127.0.0.1 only.
  • The exact host is required — wildcard subdomains aren't supported.
  • Submit a Developer API support ticket with your client name and redirect URI.

Verify

After setup, confirm everything works with a simple prompt:
