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.

Any of Zoho FSM's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Module Entry, New/Updated Module Entry and Updated Module Entry. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Minor Planet Center when something happens in Zoho FSM? Any of Minor Planet Center's 11 actions, including Find MPECs, Find near-duplicate observations, Get action code and Get magnitude band. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Minor Planet Center to Zoho FSM? Minor Planet Center has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Zoho FSM. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Minor Planet Center's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Zoho FSM or Minor Planet Center? 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 Zoho FSM and Minor Planet Center 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.
