Generic MCP

Any assistant that speaks the Model Context Protocol (MCP) can connect to a
Twelfth workspace, even if it isn’t in the named list. Twelfth exposes a single
read-only MCP endpoint per workspace, authenticated with a bearer key. Reach
it from Settings → AI & agents → Generic MCP.

Use this when your client isn’t Claude,
ChatGPT,
Gemini,
Grok,
Glean,
Cursor,
Claude Desktop, or
VS Code / Copilot — the pattern is
the same for every MCP client.

Connect

  1. In Twelfth, open AI & agents → Generic MCP and, in Keys & options, label the connection and select Generate key. Copy the key immediately — Twelfth shows it only once.
  2. In your client’s MCP configuration, add a server with:
    • URL / endpoint — the Twelfth endpoint shown on the Setup tab.
    • Authorization — a bearer token set to the key you generated.
  3. Reload the client’s MCP servers, then ask it to list Twelfth’s tools to confirm the connection.

Available tools

The connection is read-only and exposes the same tools as every assistant:

  • Get workspace identity and operating defaults.
  • List workspace members and their roles.
  • List open actions, including due dates, assignees, and available source context.

These tools cannot write data or make changes in Twelfth.
