MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets CodinIT connect to other services like databases, payment systems, and more. Think of it like adding plugins to make CodinIT more powerful.

​
What is MCP?

MCP lets you connect CodinIT to other services you use. For example, you can connect to a database to save user data, or to Stripe to process payments.

Connect Services

Link to databases, APIs, and other tools

Run Actions

Do things in those services safely

Ready-Made Connections

Pre-built connections for popular services

​
How It Works

​
Main Parts

MCP has a few main parts:

Control Panel

Where you manage all your connections

Marketplace

Ready-made connections you can use

Tool List

All the actions you can do

History

Record of what you’ve done

​
Types of Connections

MCP can connect in different ways:
  • STDIO: Local tools on your computer
  • SSE: Real-time streaming connections
  • HTTP: Web-based APIs

​
Staying Safe

MCP keeps you safe:
  • Approval needed: You have to approve actions before they run
  • Auto-approve: You can trust certain actions to run automatically
  • Timeout: Actions are cancelled if they take too long
  • Check inputs: Makes sure the data is valid before running

​

​
Managing Connections

​
Adding New Services

Add your own custom connections:

  • Enter your API keys or tokens
  • Set up any special settings
  • Test it before saving

​
Checking Status

See how your connections are doing:
  • Check if they’re connected
  • See how many tools are available
  • Get alerts if something’s wrong
  • Automatic reconnection if disconnected

​
Editing Connections

Manage your existing connections:
  • Update login info
  • Delete ones you don’t use
  • Manage multiple at once
  • Save and restore settings

​
Using Tools

​
Finding Tools

Look through available actions:
  • See all available tools
  • Search by name or type
  • See what info each tool needs
  • Read instructions for each tool

​
Running Tools Safely

Execute tools with safety checks:
  • Review before running
  • Check that inputs are correct
  • Auto-cancel after 30 seconds
  • Trust certain tools to run automatically

​
Tracking Usage

See what you’ve done:
  • History of all actions
  • How long things took
  • Errors and problems
  • Most-used tools

​
Tips for Success

Safety First: Always check what a tool will do before approving it, especially if it changes data.
Start Simple: Use ready-made connections first, then add custom ones later.
Keep Secrets Safe: Store API keys securely. MCP keeps everything on your computer and doesn’t send it anywhere.

​
Fixing Problems

​
Can’t Connect

Common connection problems:
  • No internet: Check your internet and firewall
  • Wrong password: Check your API keys
  • Service down: Check if the service is working
  • Wrong settings: Double-check your URLs and settings

​
Tools Won’t Run

Problems running tools:
  • Timeout: Tools cancel after 30 seconds
  • Wrong info: Check required fields
  • No permission: Make sure your API key has permission
  • Too many requests: Wait a bit and try again

​
Running Slow

Make things faster:
  • Reuse connections
  • Save frequently-used data
  • Do multiple things at once when possible
  • Watch for slow spots

Examples

​
Database Example

// Get user data from Supabase
const users = await mcp.executeTool('supabase', 'query_users', {
  table: 'users',
  filter: { status: 'active' }
});

​
Payment Example

// Process a payment with Stripe
const payment = await mcp.executeTool('stripe', 'create_payment_intent', {
  amount: 1000,
  currency: 'usd',
  customer_id: 'cus_123'
});

​
AI Example

// Generate code with AI
const code = await mcp.executeTool('claude-code', 'generate_component', {
  component_type: 'React',
  description: 'User profile form'
});
