ChatGPT

ChatGPT currently requires a one-time custom connection on the web. It takes about 3 minutes. A pasted prompt can’t install it for you.

1. Turn on Developer mode

   On chatgpt.com, open your profile menu → Settings → Security and login. Scroll to the bottom and switch on Developer mode.

   ChatGPT marks this “Elevated risk” because it allows apps OpenAI hasn’t reviewed yet, like this one. TMU MCP acts on your explicit send, upload or submit requests. You can enable extra review for every write in TMU MCP Settings. No Developer mode switch? Your plan or school workspace may not allow it; use Claude or Codex instead.

   Open Security settings ↗

2. Create the app

   Open the Plugins page, then choose Add at the top right → Create MCP App.

   Open ChatGPT plugins ↗

3. Fill in the form

   • Name: TMU MCP
   • Connection: keep Server URL selected and paste the address above
   • Authentication: keep OAuth. Leave Advanced OAuth settings as they are.
   • Tick I understand and want to continue, then choose Create.

   The icon and description are optional.

4. Approve access

   Choose Continue to TMU MCP. The TMU MCP dashboard opens an approval page. Check that it shows your TMU email, then choose Allow connection. You land back in ChatGPT.

5. Try it

   Start a new chat and type @, then pick TMU MCP (or choose + → Plugins). Ask: “What’s due this week?”

Claude and Cowork

1. Open Connectors

   On claude.ai, open Customize → Connectors, then choose + → Add custom connector.

2. Add the server

   • Name: TMU MCP
   • MCP server URL: paste the address above
   • Leave the OAuth client and header fields empty, then choose Add.

3. Connect and approve

   Choose Connect next to TMU MCP. The TMU MCP dashboard opens. Check your TMU email, then choose Allow connection.

   School or work Claude accounts may need the organization owner to add the connector first.

4. Try it

   In a new chat, switch on TMU MCP in the tools menu and ask: “What’s due this week?”
