# Geckoboard MCP server

> Query live metrics and data lists from the business tools connected to your Geckoboard account, with read-only access.

- Listing: https://mcp.tc/i/geckoboard
- Connect: use the server's own URL `https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp` (OAuth sign-in at the server); clients connect to it directly. The listing link is a page, not an MCP endpoint.
- Type: remote (Streamable HTTP)
- Auth: OAuth sign-in
- Category: [Data & Analytics](https://mcp.tc/c/analytics)
- Vendor: Geckoboard
- Homepage: <https://www.geckoboard.com/product/metrics-mcp/>

## About

Connects an AI assistant to the finished, consistently defined metrics in your Geckoboard account. Metrics come from connected tools such as HubSpot, Aircall, Zendesk and Google Analytics, so answers about things like ticket volumes, win rates or response times match your dashboards.

Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp. Users sign in with OAuth, and access is read-only (scope mcp:read). A Geckoboard account with connected data sources is required; the vendor says the MCP is available on all plans.

## What it can do

- Query live metrics from data sources connected to Geckoboard
- Retrieve data lists from connected business tools
- Ask plain-language questions about KPIs such as ticket counts or win rates
- Combine metrics across several sources in one conversation
- Read-only access to your data

## Example prompts

- "How many billing tickets did we receive last week?"
- "Why did tickets take more touches to solve last week?"
- "Show win rate by sales rep for this quarter."
- "Summarize our support response times against last month."

## Install

### Claude Code

1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http geckoboard https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code, type `/mcp`, pick **geckoboard** and choose **Authenticate**. A browser window opens for the Geckoboard sign-in.

Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.

### Claude Desktop

1. Open **Settings → Connectors** and click **Add custom connector**.

2. Name it **Geckoboard** and paste this URL:

```url
https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp
```

3. Click **Add**, then **Connect**, and sign in when Geckoboard asks.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

### claude.ai

1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:

[Add to claude.ai](<https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Geckoboard&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fgateway.geckoboard.com%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

2. Check that the URL reads `https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp` and click **Add**.

3. Click **Connect** and sign in when Geckoboard asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**.

### ChatGPT

1. On chatgpt.com, open **Settings → Security and login** and turn on **Developer mode**.

2. Go to `chatgpt.com/plugins` and click **+** to create an app for a remote MCP server.

3. Paste `https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp` as the server URL and choose **OAuth**. ChatGPT sends you to Geckoboard to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

### Cursor

[Add to Cursor](<https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=geckoboard&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2dhdGV3YXkuZ2Vja29ib2FyZC5jb20vbWNwIn0%3D>) (opens Cursor)

Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "geckoboard": {
      "url": "https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor shows **Needs login** next to the server. Click it to sign in.

### VS Code

[Install in VS Code](<https://vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=geckoboard&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fgateway.geckoboard.com%2Fmcp%22%7D>) (opens VS Code)

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"geckoboard","type":"http","url":"https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"}'
```

Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "geckoboard": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

### Devin Desktop

1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows):

`mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "geckoboard": {
      "serverUrl": "https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers.

### Codex

```bash
codex mcp add geckoboard --url https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp
codex mcp login geckoboard
```

Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.geckoboard]
url = "https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http geckoboard https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp
```

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run `/mcp auth geckoboard` to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere.

### Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "geckoboard": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://gateway.geckoboard.com/mcp`.
