Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Bread & Butter and DigitalOcean 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) ### Claude, web and desktop Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Cursor Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Zed Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

Any of Bread & Butter's 6 triggers in the catalog, including New Authentication, New Contact Us Submission, New Custom Fields and New Custom User Event. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in DigitalOcean when something happens in Bread & Butter? Any of DigitalOcean's 108 actions, including Create Alert Policy, Create App, Create App Deployment and Create Custom Image. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from DigitalOcean to Bread & Butter? Yes. When something happens in DigitalOcean, your agent can act in Bread & Butter too. This page covers both directions: DigitalOcean's triggers and Bread & Butter's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Bread & Butter or DigitalOcean? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use Bread & Butter and DigitalOcean without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
