Devin reaches looot's catalog, balance and runs over MCP, through a custom MCP in Customize.

Before you start you need a looot account. The runs you make spend the organization's balance, so
top up before your first paid run. See [Before your first run](/money#before-your-first-run).

Not tested by hand yet. Steps follow [the client's own docs](https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/mcp); if a menu has moved, that page wins.
:::

## Sign in with the browser

The server URL is `https://api.looot.ai/mcp`. Nothing to copy: you sign in on looot.ai, pick the organization to bill and click **Connect**.

**Add a custom MCP**

```text
1. Open Customize, then the MCPs tab. Click Add MCP, then Add custom MCP.
2. Server Name: looot. Transport: HTTP. Server URL: https://api.looot.ai/mcp.
3. Authentication method: OAuth. Click Save.
4. Click Connect. Devin asks you to visit a URL. Sign in on looot.ai, pick the organization, click Connect.
5. Click Test tools to check the connection.
```

## Headless: a token in the header

Only for CI and machines with no browser. Create an agent token in [Settings](https://looot.ai/settings) and send it as `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. Never commit it.

**Headless: Authentication method Auth Header**

```text
Header key: Authorization
Header value: Bearer <agent token from looot.ai Settings>
```

## Notes

- Adding a custom server needs the Manage MCP Servers permission. Other members can suggest an MCP integration.
- For an organization-wide setup, connect with a service account, not a personal login.
- This is cloud Devin. Devin Desktop, the former Windsurf, is the Windsurf entry.
- Labels may differ slightly in your version.

## Check it works

Start a Devin session and ask it to call [`balance`](/mcp-tools/balance) or [`catalog_overview`](/mcp-tools/catalog-overview). Both are free. A working connection
answers with your available balance, or the catalog's categories and job counts.

## Let your AI guide you

Paste this into Claude Code or any AI assistant and it walks you through the setup.

```text
Help me connect the looot MCP server https://api.looot.ai/mcp to Devin. Go one step at a time and wait for me to confirm. After each step, ask me for a screenshot, check it, and tell me exactly what to do next. Ask me to hide any token first. Check my MCP settings with me as we go. Steps: 1. Open Customize, MCPs, Add MCP, Add custom MCP. 2. Set Server Name looot, Transport HTTP, the URL, Authentication method OAuth, then Save. 3. Click Connect and sign in. 4. Click Test tools. Use browser sign-in. If it fails, tell me to make a token at looot.ai/connect under Advanced and keep it in the config file only, never in this chat. At the end, ask looot for my balance, run ipinfo-lite on 8.8.8.8, and tell me both results.
```

## What you see when you connect

The browser opens looot.ai and shows the consent page: which organization to bill, which scopes
to grant and how long to stay connected. See [The consent page](/connect#the-consent-page).
