You need

An app that can add a remote MCP server
It may call it a remote or HTTP server.

Connect Another app

  1. In GoRunner, open MCP in the sidebar. If an app is already connected, press Connect an AI app. Choose Another app; if it isn’t shown, press All 13 apps.
    The Connect an AI app panel with Another app chosen. The ringed key is the one to press.
  2. Press Copy next to MCP server address. Paste the address where your app adds an MCP server. It may say remote or HTTP.
  3. Sign in to GoRunner when it asks. If it can’t, use an API token.
  4. If Another app signs in, on Allow “Another app” to use GoRunner?, choose the workspace and what it may do, then press Allow access.

Since v2026.10.23

  1. In the product you use, open MCP, press Connect an AI app and choose Another app. Press Copy next to the address.
  2. Paste the address where your app adds an MCP server. It may say remote or HTTP.
  3. Sign in with the account you use here when it asks. If it can’t, use an API token.
  4. If Another app signs in, choose what it may do, then press Allow access.

You should see Connected in the panel once Another app signs in and makes its first request. With a token, the token’s line says Connected instead.

It stays connected for up to 180 days, or until you disconnect it.

Without sign-in for AI apps, the panel shows Another app with a token instead: make or paste one, and copy the header it fills in. If the product lets apps run your workflows but not build them, the address ends in /tools. Another app can then only call your published workflows. See Turn your workflows into tools.

Can I use an API token instead?

Yes, for an app that can’t sign in. In the panel, press Use an API token instead. Connect with an API token shows each step.

How do I disconnect Another app?

On the MCP page, under Connected apps, press Disconnect next to the app. Revoke a token in Settings › Workspace › API tokens.

On the product’s MCP page, press Disconnect next to the app.

It stops on its next request. Remove it in Another app too.

What you can ask

13 tools: it reads, drafts and runs in the workspaces you choose. It publishes only if you allow it.What it can do depends on what the product allows: building, or only your published workflows. If Another app lists the server’s commands, try one:

  • Build a workflow (when it may write drafts)
  • Diagnose a failed run
  • Explain a workflow

It can also call your own published workflows.

For developers

AI apps connect through MCP (Model Context Protocol). Another app adds the server https://api.gorunner.io/mcp/build. It signs in with OAuth where it can, and otherwise uses an API token. Self-hosted: your installation’s address, ending in /mcp/build.

With a token, an app with a JSON settings file usually takes this:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gorunner": {
      "url": "https://api.gorunner.io/mcp/build/w/<workspace ID>",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Some apps call the key servers, and some need "type": "http". Connect with an API token shows where each listed app takes it.
