  1. Add the server

    Give your client this address. Mana is a remote MCP server on Streamable HTTP.

    https://mcp.mana.scalarmind.com

    The client finds the authorization server from the address and runs the sign-in itself. Mana accepts a public client with PKCE, so no static registration is needed.

    A product in a browser takes a settings form that only a person can fill. claude.ai and ChatGPT have their own guides.

    In Cursor, add the server to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, then sign in when Cursor asks:

    Configuration file
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "mana": { "url": "https://mcp.mana.scalarmind.com" }
      }
    }

    Or paste this line into Cursor, and the agent adds the entry for you:

    Add this entry to the "mcpServers" object in ~/.cursor/mcp.json for me, and keep the other entries: "mana": { "url": "https://mcp.mana.scalarmind.com" }. Then I sign in when Cursor asks.

    If your organization has no space on this server, the sign-in ends on a short denial page. Ask your organization admin.

  2. Then paste the prompt

    Start a new session and paste this prompt. It tells the agent to read the standing instructions, which carry the rules your organization keeps.

    The prompt · after Mana is connected
    I have connected the Mana MCP server to this assistant.
    Call mana_standing_instructions and follow what it returns: it carries standard organization rules, and it says when to read it again.

    If your client takes a command, you can give the agent the address above and ask it to add the server. Then start a new session and paste this.

    Then store your first memory.

Which agent you connect as

The client name selects the acting agent that Mana records.

ClientAgent
claude.aiagent:claude-ai
Claude Codeagent:claude-code
Codexagent:codex
Copilotagent:copilot
ChatGPTagent:chatgpt
The Mana dashboardagent:dashboard
The Mana account pageagent:account-page
Any other client, such as OpenCode or Cursoragent:oauth-client

Your first client's agent is the one your grant names; a later client acts as its own agent when your admin has issued you a grant for that agent, and otherwise reuses the first one.

Your identity stays the same across clients. Mana records the agent of the grant in use, and that name gives no access.

When the connection is lost

Your browser opens to sign you in. Then a confirmation page names the client and the address it returns to. If you have not accepted the terms of service yet, that page asks you to. The token renews itself.

When your client says the connection was lost, connect it again. Nothing in the store is lost.

Removing it

Remove Mana undoes the connection and anything the agent added to your instruction files.
