# Connect GitHub and Square

When **New Branch** fires in [GitHub](https://apiant.ai/connections/github), your agent runs **Add order** in [Square](https://apiant.ai/connections/square), or **New order** in Square to **Add Labels to Issue** in GitHub. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want GitHub and Square to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

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