Connect Claude or ChatGPT to Rootr

Rootr is a documents-and-data workspace your AI can act on, not just search. Connect it once and Claude or ChatGPT can write a doc, file an issue, add a database row, or trace why something happened across your team's knowledge graph, straight from the same chat.

Prompts that write, not just read

These are real prompts, not a demo script. Once Rootr is connected, paste any of these into Claude or ChatGPT and it acts on your workspace immediately. There is nothing to copy back in by hand.

Paste this into Claude or ChatGPTWhat happens in Rootr
"Add this idea to our shared Rootr doc."rootr_append writes it straight into the doc.
"File this as a bug in Rootr's issue tracker."rootr_create_issue opens a real issue in your workspace.
"Ask Rootr's docs why this retry logic exists."rootr_ask traces the answer through your knowledge graph and cites the doc.

What this does

Rootr's MCP server exposes your workspace as tools an AI agent can call directly, not a search index it has to guess from. Once connected, Claude or ChatGPT can read a document, write to one, look up a database row, or trace why something happened across your team's knowledge graph, all inside the same chat.

The endpoint is a single URL: rootr.io/mcp. It speaks the Streamable HTTP MCP transport and handles login through OAuth, so there is no API key to copy around.

Connect Claude (desktop or claude.ai)

  1. Open Settings, then Connectors.
  2. Click "Add custom connector."
  3. Name it anything (for example "Rootr") and paste this URL:
https://rootr.io/mcp
  1. Click Add. A Rootr login screen opens: sign in (or sign up if you don't have an account yet).
  2. Pick the workspace to connect and a permission level, then click Allow.
  3. Back in Claude, open a new chat, turn the Rootr connector on, and ask it something about your workspace.

Connect ChatGPT (web, Plus or above)

What you can look up once it is connected

Rootr writes when you ask it to, and it also answers questions by looking things up first, the same way a teammate would.

You askWhat runs behind it
"Why did the deploy job fail last Tuesday?"rootr_ask, which traces the answer through your workspace's knowledge graph instead of a keyword search.
"What's in my Rootr workspace?"rootr_search / rootr_read, which look up and reads real documents.

The connector needs a workspace to point at. Sign up free, create a workspace, then come back to this page and connect it. Takes about a minute.
