How to add an MCP server's tools to the WorkWit agent with Work Wit AI Agent

Point WorkWit at an MCP server through data/mcp.json so its tools join the agent's catalog.

Credentials. MCP connector config may contain tokens, so keep data/mcp.json out of git and limit the tokens to the access the agent needs.

Who it is forA developer or IT admin who already runs an MCP server with tools the office team needs, such as an internal system, and wants the agent to use them.

The problemThe agent can only use the tools it was given, so internal systems stay out of reach unless they are connected.

The outcomeExternal tools from your MCP server appear in the unified capability catalog and can be called by the agent.

What you need first

  • A Linux server (Ubuntu 22.04 recommended) with Docker and the docker compose plugin
  • Four OpenAI-compatible model endpoints with addresses and keys for chat, vision, embed, and rerank roles
  • Git access to the repo

Steps

  1. Deploy WorkWit and confirm the stack runs with docker compose up -d --build
  2. Create data/mcp.json in the repo with the connector settings for your MCP server, using streamable-http or stdio transport (inferred, check the README)
  3. Restart the backend with docker compose up -d --build so the connector loads (inferred, check the README)
  4. Open the Tool Library and confirm the external tools are listed
  5. Ask the agent to use one of those tools on a test task and check the result

Prompt for your agent

In the WorkWit-AI-Agent repo at <repo-path>, add an MCP connector for <mcp-server-name> in data/mcp.json using the <transport> transport, then rebuild the stack. Expected output: the external tools listed in the Tool Library. Verify that a test agent task calls one of those tools and returns a result, and that data/mcp.json is not committed to git.

Caveat. The README does not show the format of data/mcp.json, so the connector fields must be taken from your MCP server's own documentation and the repo's code.

Use this in your AI agent
