Connectors (MCP)

Connectors let Gluon use other services, such as Notion, Linear, your broker or a payments dashboard, through MCP servers. Each connection is yours: other members don’t see it, and your Gluon uses it in your private chats and your requests in groups.

Add a connector

Open Settings → Connectors & tools:

• Discover servers lists popular servers you can connect in a click, such as Notion, Linear, Atlassian, Airtable, Canva, Dropbox, Zapier, Stripe, Razorpay and Indian brokers like Kite by Zerodha, Groww, Upstox and Dhan.
• Add server connects any MCP server by its HTTPS URL. Give it a name and, if the service needs an API key or token, add Headers, such as Authorization with Bearer <token>. Header values are hidden after saving; to change them, remove and add the server again.

Servers that use sign-in ask you to sign in to the service; the server’s status shows Sign-in needed, Connecting…, Failed or how many tools it has once it’s ready.

Using connectors

Just ask: “Create a Linear issue for the login bug” or “What’s in my Notion reading list?” Gluon searches your connected servers for a suitable tool and calls it. Adding a connector doesn’t slow Gluon down or change its other tools.

Connector calls are free; you only pay for Gluon’s reply as usual.

Permissions

Each connector tool has its own permission. When you connect a server, Gluon picks a default for each tool:

• tools the server marks as only reading get Allow;
• tools the server marks as destructive get Auto;
• everything else is classified by an AI check: strictly read-only tools get Allow, and anything that changes data, or is unclear, gets Auto.

Change any tool to Allow, Auto, Ask or Off on the server’s page. Reset to defaults clears your changes for that server. If a server changes a tool’s definition, the tool gets a fresh default and your old setting for it is cleared.

Approval cards show the connector, the action and its exact input. A call that waits for approval re-checks the permission before it runs, so a tool changed while you were deciding can’t run under its old setting.

Connector pages

Some connectors get their own page and cards in Gluon. Kite by Zerodha, for example, shows holdings and positions as cards, an order’s details on its approval card, and a holdings page in the More menu. Calls from a connector page are yours, so tool permissions don’t apply, but anything that changes data asks you to confirm.

Agents and groups

• Custom agents use all your connectors, including ones you add later, or only the ones you choose in their settings. See Agents.
• In a group, your Gluon can use your connectors for your own requests, under your personal permissions. Its replies may show their results to the group, so it’s told not to share your private details unless you ask.

Removing a connector

Remove a server from its page. Its name is never reused for another connection, so an old call can’t reach a different account.
