Connect providers and assistants

Set up models, credentials and connections without confusing their roles.

Vault and connections

In Settings → Vault and connections, review available providers and add the connection you want to use. Choose a model for the right purpose: conversation, speech recognition and voice output may need different services.

Other AIs control the app. Assistants like Claude Desktop can use the app through MCP: ask them in their chat and they open or arrange your workspaces.

Check a connection

  1. Obtain credentials from your chosen provider.
  2. Add them in the corresponding panel, without pasting them into chat.
  3. Select the model and its supported capabilities.
  4. Use the available connection check and try a short request.
  5. Review limits and usage in your provider account.

An app subscription and an external provider’s usage are separate services. Providers may have their own costs, limits or requirements. Custom models can only perform capabilities they actually support.

Connect another assistant through MCP

The MCP section allows a compatible assistant to access actions exposed by Workspace Launcher. Enable the service when needed and follow the connection information shown by the app. Review which assistant you connect and disable it when no longer required.

These connections are not needed to create and launch workspaces manually. For failed AI requests, check the plan, connection and model capability first; see troubleshooting.

Connect Codex or Claude Code installed on your PC

WhereSettingsMCPConnect local agents

The app detects whether Codex or Claude Code is installed on this Windows and connects it with one click: the client starts the MCP when it needs it, without turning on the HTTP server.

  1. Open Connect local agents and wait for "Detecting clients…" to finish.
  2. Press Connect next to the client. If it is not listed, install it and use Detect again.
  3. When it says "Connection configured", open a new chat in the client and accept the permissions it asks for.

If a "workspace-launcher" connection already exists with a different configuration, the app does not overwrite it: review it in the client. Every action keeps your license limits; if your plan does not allow external agents, the app will say so.
