You might have some questions
What is an MCP tool?
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI use apps. An MCP server exposes actions; connected to your Double, those actions become a tool.
How is this different from the MCP page?
The MCP page is about running your Double from ChatGPT or Claude. This page is the other direction: your Double using your own MCP tools.
Do the same permissions apply?
Yes. You choose what your Double may do with each action, and sensitive actions wait for your OK.
Do I need to build a server?
Only if your tool doesn’t have one yet. Many apps already publish an MCP server.
