Connect an AI assistant

You can ask Claude or ChatGPT about your sites’ results, beside your other tools, such as your ads, analytics or spreadsheets: “How are my pages doing this week?”, or “Compare value per visit by campaign with my Meta spend.” The assistant reads what your dashboard shows, through RoutingCat’s MCP server, and you choose which sites it reads.

Your coding agent keeps the command and the skill, which do everything the connection does and more: Work with your coding agent.

Connect it

The server’s address is https://mcp.routingcat.com/mcp.

• In Claude: Customize › Connectors › Add › Add custom connector, then paste the address.
• In ChatGPT: in developer mode, add a connector with the address.
• In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http routingcat https://mcp.routingcat.com/mcp.

The assistant sends you to RoutingCat to sign in, as you sign in to the dashboard: a Shopify store’s owner opens the dashboard from the store’s admin first. RoutingCat then asks you to allow the connection. The page names the app as it calls itself, and the address it returns you to, which RoutingCat checks: allow it only if that address is the app’s. For an app that publishes a description of itself, as Claude and ChatGPT do, the page also says where that description is served from, and warns you if the app would return you somewhere else. Where a description is served from tells you where, not who wrote it. An app on your own computer, such as Claude Code, returns you to localhost, so allow it only if you just connected from there. The request answers only in the browser that began it, so if someone sends you a link to this page, it asks nothing of you.

What it reads

• Your sites’ results, as the dashboard shows them: each page’s measured gain, each variant’s predicted figures, labels and signal, and the counts over the days you ask about.
• Breakdowns and sources: a figure by device, country or campaign, and where visits and conversions came from.
• The names and settings of your pages, variants, campaigns and sources, the warnings with what fixes them, and the history of changes.

Every figure it reads says its kind, counted, predicted or measured, with its range, and the assistant is told to say “too early to tell” where the dashboard does: What the numbers mean.

It never reads records of your sites’ individual visitors, and it changes nothing: pausing, promoting and changing settings stay with you and your coding agent.

Choose the sites

When you allow the connection, it reads every site you have, and those you add later, unless you choose some. A connection to some sites never sees the others, even those you belong to.

Ask it

• “How are my pages doing this week?”
• “What does routing do for visitors from Meta’s ads?”
• “Is everything recording? Anything I should fix?”
• “What changed on the pricing page last week?”
• “Compare value per visit by campaign with my ad spend”, with your ads’ connector beside it.

If it doesn’t work

• The sign-in page doesn’t open: allow pop-ups for your app, then connect again.
• RoutingCat says to start from your app, or that the request has ended: a request lasts ten minutes, in the browser that began it. Start again from your app, in the browser you sign in with.
• RoutingCat says it can’t read the app’s registration: in your app, remove RoutingCat’s connector, then add it again: it registers anew.
• The assistant sees no site, or not the one you expected: a connection reads only the sites you chose when you allowed it. Revoke it in Settings › Connected apps, then connect again and choose.
• The assistant lost access: the connection was revoked, or went unused for 90 days. Connect again.
• Answers say “too early to tell”: a result’s range still includes zero, as the dashboard says too.

Privacy

When you connect RoutingCat to an AI assistant. You can connect RoutingCat to an AI assistant, such as Claude or ChatGPT, through our MCP server. When you do:

• You choose the access. You pick which of your sites the connection may read, and whether it may also act, for example by pausing a variant.
• What the assistant receives is what our dashboard shows you for those sites: aggregated results, the names and settings of your pages, variants, campaigns and sources, warnings, and the history of changes, including which person on your team made each one.
• What it never receives: records about your site’s individual visitors.
• The assistant’s provider processes what it receives under its own terms and privacy policy.
• You stay in control. You can see and revoke your connections at any time in your RoutingCat settings, and every change made through a connection is recorded under your name, as a change made in the dashboard is.
