MCP server

The MCP server gives an AI agent direct, read-only access to your workspaceWorkspaceEverything GrowthOS knows and does for one brand. Every figure, page, and agent in your workspace covers that brand only. (pages, briefsBriefThe plan for one page: the research, structure, and targeting a draft is written from., contextContextWhat GrowthOS knows about your company: what you do, the market you sit in, the buyers you write for, and how you sound. Held on 8 screens, and every agent reads context before it does anything. and analytics) from wherever you already work. A brief is the plan a draft is written from; context is what GrowthOS knows about your company. Instead of exporting a report to ask a question about it, you ask the question against live workspace data.

Setup takes about 10 minutes and is per-client: connecting Claude doesn't connect Cursor.

Reference

Scope is read-only. The screen groups the tools into 3 areas (Pages, Page Creation and Context), and Show all tools lists everything your account can reach. Some tools are reserved for the GrowthX team, so the list reflects your own access rather than the full server.

Read-only is a hard boundary, not a default. An agent can read your portfolio, your scores, your briefs and your context; it cannot publish, edit context, or change a brief. Anything that changes state still happens in the product.

--scope user in the registration command installs the server for your user account rather than a single project, so it's available in every session rather than one directory.

The connection carries your permissions. It isn't scoped to the workspace you happened to set it up from: in the rare case your account can reach several workspaces, the agent can query all of them. Worth knowing before you connect an agent on a shared machine.

Connected means "has connected", not "is connected now." The badge is set the first time an authenticated request arrives and is never cleared, so it won't tell you whether the link is live today.

Disconnecting

You disconnect on the client, not in GrowthOS. There is no in-product button that severs an MCP connection. The credential lives in your AI client, so removing it there is what ends the connection:

claude mcp remove growthx-os

For Cursor and other clients, delete the growthx-os entry from the client's MCP configuration.

The Revoke button under Tools → API Tokens is a different credential, one GrowthX manages. It governs programmatic API access and has no bearing on MCP: revoking a token won't disconnect an agent, and removing an agent won't invalidate a token.

Two properties of the connection matter more than a disconnect button, and both work in your favour:

The authorization is short-lived. The access token the connection uses expires after 1 hour and is renewed against your account; the renewal credential itself expires after 30 days. An abandoned connection stops working on its own.

Access is re-resolved on every request. The connection doesn't hold a snapshot of what you could see when you set it up: each request looks up the workspaces your account can reach right now. So removing someone from a workspace immediately removes it from what their agent can query, and deactivating their account ends the connection entirely. Account access is the real control here.

It turns the workspace into something you can ask questions of. The product answers the questions its screens were designed for. An agent with MCP access answers the ones nobody built a screen for: "which pricing pages lost position this month and share a persona", "summarise every brief in review against our writing profile."

Read-only is what makes it safe to hand to an agent. The worst outcome of a bad query is a wrong answer, not a published page. That constraint is why the connection can be set up in 10 minutes without a review process.

It pays off most alongside creation and reporting. Early in an engagement there isn't much in the workspace to interrogate. Once there's a scored portfolio and a few months of history, it becomes the fastest way to work.
