Install MCP - ELI Docs

Without MCP, your AI has no idea what tools your company runs or what they cost. Connect ELI and it already knows — no copy-pasting context every time.

Step 1 — Get your credentials

Go to your workspace → Settings → MCP Settings and generate your Client ID and Client Secret. Keep the secret private. You’ll use these in the next step for whichever AI tool you choose.

Step 2 — Install

Claude Code
Claude Desktop
ChatGPT
Cursor

Add the ELI server

Run this in your terminal. Replace YOUR_CLIENT_ID with your Client ID — you’ll be prompted for the secret.

claude mcp add --transport http eli \
  https://mcp.techbible.ai/mcp \
  --client-id YOUR_CLIENT_ID \
  --client-secret

Enter your Client Secret

When prompted, paste your Client Secret. Claude Code stores the credentials and exchanges them for tokens automatically — nothing else to configure.

Start a session

ELI’s tools are now available in every claude session. Ask it anything about your workspace.

Open Connectors in Claude Desktop

In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.

Enter the server details

Set the name to TechBible and the URL to:

https://mcp.techbible.ai/mcp

Paste your credentials

Click Advanced settings and paste your Client ID and Client Secret. Save the connector.

Start a conversation

ELI’s tools are now active in every Claude Desktop chat.

Open Connectors

In ChatGPT, go to Settings → Connectors → Add connector.

Select MCP

Choose Model Context Protocol from the connector type dropdown.

https://mcp.techbible.ai/mcp

Authorize with TechBible

Click Connect and complete the TechBible sign-in. ELI’s tools are now active.

Generate an access token

In ELI, go to Settings → MCP Servers, click Generate access token, and copy it — it’s shown once.

Open your Cursor MCP config

In Cursor, go to Settings → Tools & MCPs → Add custom MCP. This opens ~/.cursor/mcp.json.

Add the ELI server block

Paste this and replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with the token from step 1, then save.

~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eli": {
      "url": "https://mcp.techbible.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

What you can ask

Once connected, your AI already knows your workspace — no pasting context. These are real examples:

Top spend

“What are our top 5 tools by monthly spend?”

Underused seats

“Which tools have fewer than half their seats active?”

Overspend

“Where are we overspending compared to last quarter?”

Find alternatives

“Find us a better alternative to our current project management tool.”

Consolidate

“What redundant tools should we consolidate first?”

Take action

“Remove Alex from Figma — she left the team last week.”
