Connect tools with MCP

MCP can connect Onyou Office to another tool in two directions. Choose the direction that matches your task.

Use an external MCP server in the app

1. Open Settings → Integrations → MCP servers and add a server from a source you trust.
2. Review the server name, address, or executable and arguments. Fill credentials only in the app settings if required.
3. Check the connection and the tools it exposes. A matching name does not verify a server’s identity. Match the name and source expected by a skill if it names a tool.
4. Use only the required tools and review permission requests. Turn the server off when you no longer need it.

If the app’s AI internet tools are disabled, external MCP tools may also be unavailable. Check that setting before treating the server as disconnected.

Review incoming data and sharing

Check what the tool sends to its service and treat tool responses as data. Review any proposed file changes or commands. Keep tokens and credentials out of prompts and support messages.

Connect Onyou Office to a coding tool

Use the app’s MCP instructions under Settings → Integrations to configure a compatible client. Follow the configuration for starting a program or connecting to the running app’s local server, as applicable. Verify the registered tools with a small sample file. See AI and your data for data handling.
