1
Open connector settings
Go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
2
Add the server
Name it
Humanize and paste https://go.humanize.app/api/mcp as the URL.3
Connect
Click Connect, sign in to Humanize, choose the workspace you want to expose, and approve.
ChatGPT
Add Humanize as a custom connector under Settings → Connectors, using the server URL above. Sign in and approve when the browser window opens.Custom connectors in ChatGPT are limited to
search and fetch unless you enable developer mode, which exposes the full tool set. Both tools work without it — search finds studies, themes, and quotes by keyword, and fetch pulls the full record — so deep research works out of the box.Cursor
Add Humanize to~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project only):
Codex
VS Code
Add it to.vscode/mcp.json:
Other clients
Any client that supports remote MCP servers over streamable HTTP with OAuth will work. It needs no manual client registration and no API key — point it at the server URL, and it discovers the sign-in flow on its own.Verify it worked
Ask your assistant: “List the studies in my Humanize workspace.” You should get your studies back, newest first. If the list is empty but you know the workspace has studies, you likely selected a different workspace during sign-in — reconnect and pick the right one.Troubleshooting
Sign-in succeeded, but every tool call fails

Your token may have been issued without a workspace. Remove the connector, add it again, and make sure you select a workspace on the consent screen rather than skipping past it.

Tokens expire and most clients refresh them silently. If yours can’t, reconnect. This also happens if you were removed from the workspace — access follows your dashboard membership.
A study returns 'no analysis yet'
A study returns 'no analysis yet'
The study exists, but its analysis hasn’t finished. Findings tools (summary, themes, personas, question breakdown, participant responses) only return data after analysis completes. Study metadata and screener results are available before then.
A study or theme is 'not found'
A study or theme is 'not found'
The id is wrong, the record was deleted, or it belongs to a workspace this connection doesn’t cover. Have your assistant call
list_studies to get current ids rather than reusing one from an old conversation.Opening the server URL in a browser shows an error

Expected. The endpoint accepts POST requests from MCP clients only; there’s nothing to see in a browser.
