Connecting to the Pulsedive Docs MCP server

Pulsedive publishes a read-only MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for this documentation site. When you connect an AI tool to it, the tool can search and retrieve current Pulsedive documentation while it answers your questions, instead of relying on training data that might be outdated or incomplete. Connecting doesn’t require a Pulsedive account or API key.

Quick Setup

If you’re already familiar with setting up connectors in your AI tool, use this URL for the Pulsedive Docs MCP server:

https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp

Our docs don’t require authentication, so you won’t be prompted to log in.

Connect Your AI Tool

Setup steps differ by tool, but the pattern is the same throughout: point the tool at the server URL above, and skip any authentication step since none is required.

Add a custom connector

Go to the Connectors page in your Claude settings.
Click Add custom connector.
Enter a name, such as Pulsedive Docs, and paste in the server URL.
Click Add.

Enable the connector for a chat

Click the attachments button (the plus icon) next to the message box, then select the Pulsedive Docs connector. Claude can now search these docs while it responds.

Add a custom connector

Run the following command:

claude mcp add --transport http pulsedive-docs https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp

Verify the connection

Run the following command:

claude mcp list

The output should include pulsedive-docs with a connected status.

Add the server

Add the following to ~/.codex/config.toml. Create the file if it doesn’t already exist.

[mcp_servers.pulsedive-docs]
url = "https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp"

Verify the connection

Restart your Codex session for the change to take effect.
Confirm the connection by asking Codex which MCP servers it has access to.

The response should include pulsedive-docs.

Open MCP settings

Open the command palette with Command + Shift + P (Mac) or Ctrl + Shift + P (Windows).
Search for Open MCP settings.
Select Add custom MCP.

The mcp.json file opens.

Add the server

Add the following entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pulsedive-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Create a config file

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your project.

Add the server

Add the following entry:

{
  "servers": {
    "pulsedive-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Custom connectors need a paid ChatGPT plan and Developer Mode turned on. On Business and Enterprise workspaces, an admin may need to enable custom connectors first.

Turn on Developer Mode

Go to Settings > Apps & Connectors > Advanced settings.
Switch on Developer mode.

Add a custom connector

Go to Settings > Connectors.
Select Create.
Enter a name, such as Pulsedive Docs, and paste in the server URL (https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp).
Set authentication to No auth.
Save the connector.

Use it in a chat

Click the + icon next to the message box.
Select the Pulsedive Docs connector and enable it for the conversation.

Add a custom connector

Run the following command:

gemini mcp add --transport http pulsedive-docs https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp

Alternatively, add the server directly to your ~/.gemini/settings.json (or a project-level .gemini/settings.json):

{
"mcpServers": {
    "pulsedive-docs": {
    "httpUrl": "https://docs.pulsedive.com/mcp"
    }
}
}

Verify the connection

Restart the Gemini CLI.
Run /mcp to confirm pulsedive-docs shows as connected.

Using the Connection

Once you’re connected, ask questions about Pulsedive as you normally would, and your AI tool will decide on its own when to search these docs for an answer instead of relying on what it already knows.
