Gumloop builds agents and workflows. A custom MCP server becomes a connector you then attach to an agent.

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).

## Steps

1. Open **Settings, Connectors**, click the arrow next to **Add Connector** and choose **Add MCP Connector**.
2. Set the connection type to **Public URL**.
3. Enter `https://api.looot.ai/mcp` and click **Connect**.
4. Go to your agent, open **Connectors**, click **Add Connector**, search for the server you just added and select it.

The server URL is `https://api.looot.ai/mcp`.

## Sign-in

Gumloop's page names the URL and connection type but does not describe the sign-in step. Expect the browser to open looot.ai for sign-in; if Gumloop asks for a credential instead, use an agent token from [Settings](https://looot.ai/settings).

## Check it works

Ask Gumloop 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.

## A first prompt to try

```text
Ask looot for my balance, then search its catalog for a tool that finds a work email from a name and company domain, and show me the price before running anything.
```

## Troubleshooting

- The URL must be HTTPS and publicly reachable. `api.looot.ai` is.
- Server added but the agent cannot call it: you also have to attach it from the agent's **Connectors** list.
- Gumloop supports Streamable HTTP and SSE; looot uses Streamable HTTP.
- Still stuck: see [Troubleshooting](/connect/troubleshooting).

## What you see when you connect

If the client uses browser sign-in, it 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).
