# Connect Cronly and Timing

When **Trigger Activated** fires in [Cronly](https://apiant.ai/connections/cronly), your agent runs **Create Project** in [Timing](https://apiant.ai/connections/timing), or **New Project** in Timing to **Add project** in Cronly. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want Cronly and Timing 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

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

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