Tempo groups its MCP tools into toolsets. The toolset query parameter on the server URL decides which groups a connection exposes. A smaller connection gives an AI assistant fewer tools to choose from, which keeps daily deal work focused. Toolsets never widen what a person can do. Every tool enforces the same access rules as the Tempo app, and organization settings, membership, integrations, and API keys are never available over MCP.

The toolsets

See the MCP tool reference for every tool in each toolset.

Presets

Two presets name common combinations:

The URL from Settings → Connections

The Tempo app builds the server URL for you. Open Settings → Connections, pick the Claude, ChatGPT, or Other MCP Client card, and copy the URL from the setup dialog.
  • With Include Skills and Build tools off, the URL is https://findtempo.co/api/mcp?toolset=seller_default.
  • With Include Skills and Build tools on, the URL is https://findtempo.co/api/mcp?toolset=seller_default,build.
The dialog describes the toggle this way: it adds “Skills and public configuration tools for Signals, Playbook sources, and linking Slack, Notion, and Granola sources to deals. Admin settings and API keys are never included.” Turn the toggle on when you want to run Skills from your assistant, or when an organization admin wants to manage Playbook sources from an agent.

Build your own combination

If your client lets you edit the URL, set toolset to a comma-separated list of toolset names, preset names, or both:
Rules the server applies:
  • core is always included, even when you leave it out.
  • A missing or empty toolset parameter selects the all preset.
  • Unknown names are ignored. If no name resolves, the connection exposes only core.
  • Send toolset once. A repeated toolset parameter is rejected with an invalid_connection_params error.
Three older names still resolve so existing connections keep working: planning maps to workspace, memory maps to context, and deal-ops maps to crm. Use the current names in new URLs. The former communication toolset was removed and now resolves to nothing.

Tools you may not see

Some tools are hidden from a connection even when their toolset is selected:
  • manage_playbook_sources is an organization-admin tool. It is not registered for members who are not organization admins.
An empty tool list or an unavailable action is not evidence that the underlying data is empty. search_themes, get_theme, and search_deals stay registered, but return availability: hidden if Themes is turned off for your organization. See Themes.

Skills as prompts

Every published Skill you can see is also registered as an MCP prompt, named by the Skill’s execution name. Clients that support prompts list them next to the tools. Running a Skill through use_skill and running it as a prompt load the same instructions. See Skills.
