The Summand MCP server is a remote, OAuth-authenticated streamable-HTTP endpoint. There is nothing to install — every client uses the same URL and follows the standard OAuth discovery flow.

Endpoint

https://mcp.summand.com/mcp
The endpoint is stateless: each request constructs a fresh server instance scoped to the bearer token in the Authorization header.

Troubleshooting

  • Client can’t discover the MCP server — make sure you’re using the full endpoint URL with /mcp at the end. https://mcp.summand.com on its own will not work — it must be https://mcp.summand.com/mcp.
  • 401 on every call — your token expired or was revoked. Disconnect and reconnect the integration in your client.
  • 403 Forbidden — the resource isn’t owned by or shared with your user. Check sharing in the dashboard.
