# Connect Tabbio to any AI.

Tabbio is an MCP server. Your AI works from your real CV and asks before anything is sent.

## What your AI can do

### Your CV and profile

Read your verified CV, work history and skills as structured data. Rewrite a summary, or tailor the whole CV for a role.

### Jobs and applications

Run the job search from your chat. Search the same catalog the app shows, from Google Jobs to partner ATS boards, then prepare and track applications.

### Career memory

Your AI recalls what it learned last time. Memory access is per client, so you can cut one off without touching the others.

### Skills and connected tools

Run Agent Skills on a CV, check your automations, and queue an email or Slack message through the tools you connected.

## Add the Tabbio MCP server to your client

Pick your client and follow the steps. Most connections take under a minute, and sign-in happens in your browser, so the client never sees your password.

### Claude Code

Claude Code is Anthropic's terminal agent. Adding Tabbio is one command.

1. **Run the add command** In your terminal, run this from any directory.

```
# Terminal
claude mcp add --transport http tabbio https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp
```

2. **Approve access in your browser** Claude Code opens the Tabbio approval screen. Sign in and approve, and the token is stored for you.

3. **Check that it connected** Back in the terminal, list your servers. Tabbio should appear as connected.

```
# Terminal
claude mcp list
```

### Claude

Claude Desktop and Claude on the web both take remote MCP servers as custom connectors.

1. **Open connector settings** In Claude, go to Settings, then Connectors, then add a custom connector.

2. **Paste the Tabbio server address** Give the connector a name you will recognise, then paste this address.

```
# Server URL
https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp
```

3. **Approve access** Claude opens the Tabbio approval screen in your browser. Sign in and approve to finish.

### ChatGPT

ChatGPT connects to remote MCP servers once developer mode is on.

1. **Turn on developer mode** In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors, then Advanced, and switch on developer mode.

2. **Add Tabbio as a connector** Create a new connector and paste this address.

```
# Server URL
https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp
```

3. **Approve access** Sign in on the Tabbio approval screen and approve. Tabbio then shows up in the composer.

### Cursor

Cursor reads MCP servers from a config file in your home directory.

1. **Add Tabbio to your MCP config** Open the file, or create it, and add the Tabbio entry.

```
# ~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tabbio": {
      "url": "https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. **Reload Cursor** Cursor picks up the new server and asks you to sign in.

3. **Approve access** Sign in on the Tabbio approval screen. The tools then appear in Cursor's MCP list.

### Gemini CLI

Gemini CLI reads a settings file and sends a bearer token, so create a Tabbio token first.

1. **Create a personal token** In Tabbio, open Settings, then MCP access, and create a token. Copy it straight away, it is shown once.

2. **Add the server to your settings** Paste your token in place of the placeholder.

```
# ~/.gemini/settings.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tabbio": {
      "httpUrl": "https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TABBIO_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

3. **Restart Gemini CLI** Start a new session and ask it to list your CVs to confirm the connection.

### Grok

Grok takes remote MCP servers from its connector settings.

1. **Open connectors in Grok** In Grok settings, go to Connectors and add an MCP server.

2. **Paste the Tabbio server address** Use this address as the server URL.

```
# Server URL
https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp
```

3. **Approve access** Sign in on the Tabbio approval screen and approve.

### Perplexity

Perplexity adds remote MCP servers as connectors and sends a bearer token, so create a Tabbio token first.

1. **Create a personal token** In Tabbio, open Settings, then MCP access, and create a token. Copy it straight away, it is shown once.

2. **Add Tabbio as a connector** In Perplexity, open Settings, then Connectors, and add this config with your token in place of the placeholder.

```
# Connector config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tabbio": {
      "url": "https://server.tabbio.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TABBIO_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

3. **Check that it connected** Ask Perplexity to list your CVs to confirm the connection.

## Things to ask once you connect

- Find product roles in Dubai that fit my CV.
- Tailor my CV for this job description and show me what changed.
- What have I applied to this month, and where did each one get to?
- Export my CV as a PDF and give me the link.
- Remember that I am only looking at hybrid roles in the UAE.
- Draft a follow-up to the recruiter on that Riyadh role.

## You stay in control

Access is scoped, revocable and logged. Nothing leaves Tabbio without you.

- Sign-in happens in your browser. Your password never passes through the AI client.
- Every call is logged with the client that made it, so you can see what your AI did.
- Connected tools are queued by Tabbio. Your MCP token never reaches Gmail or Slack.
- Deleted memories keep a 30-day undo, and revoking a client ends its access right away.

## MCP server questions

### What is the Tabbio MCP server?

A remote MCP server that gives your AI client access to your Tabbio account: your verified CV, the job catalog, your applications and your career memory. Connect it once and your AI can use those tools in any chat.

### Which AI clients work with it?

Anything that speaks MCP. There are step-by-step instructions above for Claude Code, Claude Desktop and web, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Grok and Perplexity, and other clients work with the same server address.

### Do I need a paid plan?

No. Connecting is free and most tools work on the free plan. A few need an upgrade: DOCX, TXT and Markdown exports need Plus or Pro, authoring your own Agent Skill needs Plus, and automations need Pro.

### Can my AI apply to jobs without asking me?

No. Submitting an application pauses and waits for your approval in the Tabbio app. The same goes for sharing your CV, sending an email or Slack message, and deleting anything.

### What can it read?

Only your own account data, and only what the scope allows. A read-only token cannot change anything, and employer tools stay out of reach for personal tokens.

### How do I disconnect a client?

Open Settings, then MCP access, and revoke the client or its token. Access ends immediately, and you can cut one client's memory access without touching the others.
