# Connect Air and Bread & Butter

When **Asset Custom Field Updated** fires in [Air](https://apiant.ai/connections/air), your agent runs **Add user custom values** in [Bread & Butter](https://apiant.ai/connections/bread-butter), or **New Authentication** in Bread & Butter to **Add Assets to a Board** in Air. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want Air and Bread & Butter to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

###

### What can your agent do in Bread & Butter when something happens in Air?

###

### Can my AI client use Air and Bread & Butter without building an automation?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
