• Settings → Connectors → Create (developer mode must be on for the workspace).
• Give it a name, paste https://manager.citationlab.ai/mcp and choose OAuth as authentication.
• Create, then Connect and approve. The connector also works as a Deep Research source.

Clients that only speak MCP over stdio use the mcp-remote bridge. It runs the same sign-in in your browser on first use.

• OAuth sign-in. Tokens are short-lived and stored hashed — no long-lived secret sits in your assistant.
• The assistant acts as you and never reaches more than your user can.
• You choose the access level, and can narrow it to specific projects.
• Every real change the assistant makes is written to the project's action log.
• Settings → API → Connected apps lists every approved assistant. Disconnect revokes it at once.
• MCP access depends on your plan.

The assistant works across the modules your plan includes. A few examples:

• “How visible are we in ChatGPT and Perplexity this month compared with our competitors?”
• “Which pages lost the most clicks in Search Console over the last 28 days?”
• “Create an action to rewrite the meta description on our pricing page, and assign it to me.”
• “Pause the campaign with the weakest conversion rate last week.”
• “Summarise the open actions in the project and suggest what to do first.”

The same modules are available as a REST API with an API key and an OpenAPI description.
