Quickstart: connect your MCP gateway

You can be calling real tools through a single MCP endpoint in three steps: connect a server, copy your gateway URL, and add it to your client. Everything is metered on tool calls - there is no charge for the MCP servers you connect.

1. Connect an MCP server

On the Connections page, paste a server URL and leave Auth on Auto-detect. The gateway connects public servers directly and, for OAuth servers, discovers sign-in and opens a popup automatically.

2. Copy your gateway URL

Every workspace gets one endpoint that exposes the union of all your connected tools, namespaced per server:

https://your-company.ucl.dev/mcp

3. Add it to your client

Point any MCP client at the URL. For Claude Desktop or Cursor, drop it into the MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ucl": {
      "url": "https://your-company.ucl.dev/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ucl_<your-token>" }
    }
  }
}

That is it - your agent now sees every enabled tool from every connected server through one gateway, with governance and audit applied on every call.
