MCP

ChatGPT integration

In brief

UI form configuration in Developer Mode (no JSON to paste). Requires ChatGPT Plus/Pro/Business/Enterprise/Edu.

Prerequisites

  • ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu subscription
  • Developer Mode enabled in settings
  • AskMarcel API key (ak_live_) or linked account

Enable Developer Mode

  1. 1

    Open settings

    ChatGPT → Settings → Connectors → Advanced → Developer mode → ON.

  2. 2

    Create custom connector

    New connector → Remote MCP server.

Configure connector

  1. 1

    Name

    AskMarcel (or your choice).

  2. 2

    Server URL

    https://mcp.askmarcel.app

  3. 3

    Authentication

    Bearer token: paste your ak_live_ key (created at app.askmarcel.app/developers).

Use in a conversation

Enable the AskMarcel connector in the chat. Ask for an HVAC diagnostic — ChatGPT will call available MCP tools.

Plus/Pro limitation

Plus and Pro subscriptions can only call read-only tools (search, get_error_code, get_procedure…). diagnose requires Pro+ or Business.

Verify it works

Ask "What AskMarcel tools do you have?". ChatGPT should list connected MCP tools.

Known limitations

  • Developer Mode required — not available on free tier
  • Plus/Pro: read-only tools only
  • No JSON config format — everything via UI form
