What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and other tools interact with external data sources. Omi’s MCP server gives these assistants direct access to your memories and conversations.

How It Works

Your AI assistant connects to the Omi MCP server, discovers the tools allowed by its authorization, and calls them as needed during your conversations. The hosted server supports OAuth access tokens (the default for supported ChatGPT and Claude cloud flows) and manually provisioned omi_mcp_... keys for compatible clients and local servers. The same hosted MCP connection works across Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, and any compatible client. It exposes the user’s Omi context as scoped tools: durable memories, conversations, people, action items, goals, chat history, daily summaries, and synced screen activity. The server’s initialization instructions tell clients to retrieve task-specific evidence, confirm important claims against source records, and avoid writes unless the user clearly requested them. When the Omi macOS app connects Claude Code or Codex, it also installs a small omi skill in that client’s personal skills directory. The skill contains routing guidance only—never credentials or user data—and Omi preserves an existing user-authored skill with the same name.

Comparison with Developer API

For programmatic access without AI assistants, use the Developer API instead.
