Connect
The Knowledge Gateway is a remote MCP server. You add it to your AI assistant, then sign in through your browser to start using it.
- Endpoint:
https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp - Sign-in: your Ybor account (browser-based, handled by your client — no tokens, client IDs, or secrets to copy or paste)
You'll be sent to a browser to sign in when you connect. Your client keeps you signed in for a while, but you may be prompted to sign in again from time to time.
Pick your client below.
Claude Code
Add the server:
claude mcp add --transport http knowledge-gateway \
https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp
By default this adds it for you in the current project (--scope local). To make
it available across all your projects, add --scope user.
Then, inside a Claude Code session, sign in:
/mcp
Select knowledge-gateway and follow the browser prompt. When it shows as connected, you're ready.
Claude Desktop
Claude Desktop connects to remote servers natively — no config file to edit.
- Open Settings (macOS: Claude → Settings, or
⌘,; Windows: menu → File → Settings, orCtrl+,). - In the sidebar, click Connectors.
- Click Add → Add custom connector.
- Paste the endpoint URL:
https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp - Leave the Advanced settings (OAuth Client ID / Secret) empty — the gateway registers your client automatically. Click Add.
- A browser window opens for sign-in. Sign in and approve; the connector then shows as Connected.
- In a chat, open the + / Connectors control at the bottom of the message box to enable the gateway's tools.
Cursor
Cursor is configured by file. Add the server to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all
projects) or .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:
{
"mcpServers": {
"knowledge-gateway": {
"url": "https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp"
}
}
}
You can open mcp.json from Cursor Settings → Tools & MCPs → New MCP Server.
After saving, go back to Cursor Settings → Tools & MCPs and click Connect on the server. Cursor then prompts you to authenticate in the browser.
Augment
- Open Augment Settings and go to the MCP menu.
- Click + to add a server.
- Choose Add HTTP server.
- Paste the endpoint URL:
https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp - Set the Server ID (its name):
knowledge-gateway. - Choose where it applies — Global (all your workspaces) or Workspace (this project only).
- Augment then prompts you to authenticate — complete the browser sign-in.
Prefer JSON? Import this in the Settings panel.
{
"servers": {
"knowledge-gateway": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://knowledge-gateway.eks.us-east-2.aws.prd.ybor-studio.p6m.run/mcp"
}
}
}
Verify it's connected
Two quick checks.
1. Your client shows the server connected.
| Client | Where to look | Looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | run /mcp (or claude mcp get knowledge-gateway) | ✔ Connected |
| Claude Desktop | Settings → Connectors | connector shows Connected |
| Cursor | Settings → MCP | server enabled, green indicator |
| Augment | Settings → MCP | server shows connected / authorized |
2. Ask it a real question. Paste this to your assistant:
Using the knowledge gateway, how do I onboard a new developer to the platform?
You should get back concrete platform steps — something like Workstation Setup → Project Cloning → Development Environment → First Contribution. If you see those, you're fully working.
- Not connected, or an authentication error — re-run sign-in (
/mcpin Claude Code; the authorize/sign-in action in the other clients) and complete the browser login. - Connected, but the answer is vague or generic — make sure you named the gateway in your question ("Using the knowledge gateway, …") so the assistant actually uses it.
- Still stuck? Reach out to the platform team.
