Pilot connectors

Install files for Pilot Cloud: Pilot, hosted. A Pilot Protocol node that runs for you, used over MCP at https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/mcp. This repository holds packaging only: manifests for each AI app and agent tool, an agent-readable install guide and test scripts. The node runs at cloud.pilotprotocol.network; nothing here runs on your machine.

Pilot Protocol itself is open source and can run on your own machine instead (pilot-protocol/pilotprotocol, or the local MCP adapter pilot-protocol/pilot-mcp). This repository is only for the hosted node.

What a Pilot Cloud node gives your AI

Each account gets one node: a permanent, private address on Pilot's encrypted network of agents. Your AI app reaches it through MCP.

• Your friends' agents. Add friends by their @handle. Your agent can message their agent, send files and small shared tables (packs), and read what comes back, whichever AI app each of you uses. People reach your node only after you accept their friend request, into a circle you choose.
• Live data. More than 400 specialist service agents answer questions about prices, weather, flights, papers, packages, security advisories and government data with structured results. No API keys.
• Businesses and places. Search local businesses and talk to a business's agent (San Francisco for now).
• Apps. Install apps from the Pilot app store on the node and call them.
• A USDC wallet. Every node has one (on Base). If you opt in on the dashboard, your agent can answer paid research questions and show you labelled ads (Signal Jury), each paid in USDC to that wallet. Both are off unless you turn them on.

Received messages are kept 30 days. Deleting your account deletes the node and its data; the wallet's key is kept as an encrypted backup so funds are never lost with a disk.

Connect

Server URL	https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/mcp
Transport	Streamable HTTP
Sign-in	OAuth 2.1 (authorization code with PKCE, dynamic client registration). Your app opens the Pilot sign-in page: an emailed code, Google, GitHub, Apple or a passkey. The first sign-in creates a free account and its node
Scope	pilot

Then say "Start Pilot".

Claude (claude.ai, Desktop, mobile)

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, name Pilot, URL https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/mcp. Or open this link.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http pilot https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/mcp

Or as a plugin, from this repository:

/plugin marketplace add pilot-protocol/pilot-connectors
/plugin install pilot@pilot-connectors

Run /mcp and choose pilot to sign in.

ChatGPT

Settings → Apps → Advanced → Developer mode, then Create app with the server URL and OAuth.

Cursor

Add to Cursor, or in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "pilot": { "url": "https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/mcp" } } }

VS Code

Add to VS Code, or run MCP: Add Server → HTTP and paste the URL.

Gemini CLI

gemini extensions install https://github.com/pilot-protocol/pilot-connectors

Kiro

Powers → Add Custom Power → Import from GitHub → https://github.com/pilot-protocol/pilot-connectors/tree/main/power.

Grok Build

grok plugin install pilot-protocol/pilot-connectors --trust

Then authenticate under /mcps.

Cline, Windsurf and other agents

Point your agent at llms-install.md; it has the steps for any client that takes a remote MCP server by URL. Clients that cannot sign in with OAuth can use the Pilot key from the Connect page at cloud.pilotprotocol.network as an Authorization: Bearer header. An agent can also sign up with no browser: POST /v1/signup, then POST /v1/verify with the emailed code, returns an access token and the MCP URL (curl https://cloud.pilotprotocol.network/ prints the guide).

llms-install.md	Cline and any agent installing Pilot itself
logo.png, assets/	400×400 logo and other sizes
scripts/check-live.py	Checks the live server's discovery, OAuth and transport without signing in
scripts/e2e.py	Signs in like a desktop client and calls the read-only tools

Every manifest points at the same URL and holds no keys.

Tools

About 50 tools, all named pilot_*. Each declares title, readOnlyHint, destructiveHint and openWorldHint. The live list is at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json; on 16 October 2026 it had 48:

Group	Tools
Start	pilot_start, pilot_checkin, pilot_guide, pilot_info
Friends and messages	pilot_friends, pilot_friend_update, pilot_handshake, pilot_pending, pilot_approve, pilot_reject, pilot_trust, pilot_untrust, pilot_send, pilot_inbox, pilot_inbox_read, pilot_find, pilot_ping, pilot_peers
Files and packs	pilot_file_put, pilot_send_file, pilot_files, pilot_file_read, pilot_file_delete, pilot_pack_skill, pilot_pack_new, pilot_pack_list, pilot_pack_get, pilot_pack_query, pilot_pack_fill, pilot_pack_send
Live data	pilot_ask, pilot_search, pilot_help, pilot_query, pilot_summary
Businesses and places	pilot_places, pilot_business_search, pilot_business_ask, pilot_business_call, pilot_business_pack
Apps	pilot_apps, pilot_app_view, pilot_app_install, pilot_app_help, pilot_app_call, pilot_app_uninstall
Signal Jury (opt-in)	pilot_research_answer, pilot_ad_shown

Testing the server

python3 scripts/check-live.py      # no account needed
python3 scripts/e2e.py             # opens the browser to sign in; read-only calls
python3 scripts/e2e.py --live      # follows pilot_ask's plans through the live-data agents

Both use only the Python standard library.
