# Connect Motion and Mural

When **New Comment** fires in [Motion](https://apiant.ai/connections/motion), your agent runs **Add comment** in [Mural](https://apiant.ai/connections/mural), or **New Mural** in Mural to **Create Recurring Task** in Motion. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Motion **4** triggers Motion **17** actions Mural **2** triggers Mural **28** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Motion and Mural 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.

Any of Motion's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Comment, New or Updated Task, New Project and New Task. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Mural when something happens in Motion?

Any of Mural's 28 actions, including Create Mural, Create Sticky, Update mural and Update room. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Mural to Motion?

Yes. When something happens in Mural, your agent can act in Motion too. This page covers both directions: Mural's triggers and Motion's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Motion or Mural?

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 Motion and Mural 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.
