## About
ShareOfAsk tracks how AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini name your brand and competitors. This server gives your assistant access to workspace data: questions, competitors, mentions, responses, sources, metrics and recommended Actions. Scopes also allow adding questions and updating recommendation status.
The server is hosted at a remote streamable HTTP endpoint. Users connect with OAuth sign-in, and the assistant sees only the workspaces the user's role allows. MCP access is included on every plan, including the Free Scan.
## What it can do
- Read workspaces, tracked questions and competitors
- Review brand mentions and recorded AI responses
- Inspect the sources cited in AI answers
- Fetch visibility metrics such as AI Presence and Share of Voice
- Read recommended Actions and update their status
- Add new questions to track
## Example prompts
- "Summarize this month's AI visibility metrics for my workspace."
- "Which competitors are named most often in answers to my tracked questions?"
- "List the sources cited in answers where my brand is missing."
- "Draft a client summary from the latest recommendations."
## Install
### Claude Code
1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http shareofask https://api.shareofask.com/mcp
```
2. Start Claude Code, type `/mcp`, pick **shareofask** and choose **Authenticate**. A browser window opens for the ShareOfAsk sign-in.
Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.
### Claude Desktop
1. Open **Customize → Connectors**, click **+ Add**, then **Add custom connector**.
2. Name it **ShareOfAsk** and paste this URL:
```url
https://api.shareofask.com/mcp
```
3. Click **Add**, then **Connect**, and sign in when ShareOfAsk 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]() (opens connector settings)
2. Check that the URL reads `https://api.shareofask.com/mcp` and click **Add**.
3. Click **Connect** and sign in when ShareOfAsk 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, go to **Plugins**, select **+**, then **Add custom MCP server**.
2. Enter a name for the server.
3. Under **Connection**, paste `https://api.shareofask.com/mcp` as the server URL, then for authentication choose **OAuth**. ChatGPT sends you to ShareOfAsk to sign in.
4. Check **I understand and want to continue**, then select **Create as a plugin**.
Whether you can add a custom MCP server depends on your ChatGPT plan and your workspace permissions (in Business workspaces, admins and owners can).
### Cursor
[Add to Cursor]() (opens Cursor)
Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):
`mcp.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"shareofask": {
"url": "https://api.shareofask.com/mcp"
}
}
}
```
Cursor shows **Needs authentication** next to the server. Click the button beside it to sign in.
### VS Code
[Install in VS Code]() (opens VS Code)
Or from a terminal:
```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"shareofask","type":"http","url":"https://api.shareofask.com/mcp"}'
```
Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:
`.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
"servers": {
"shareofask": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.shareofask.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": {
"shareofask": {
"serverUrl": "https://api.shareofask.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 shareofask --url https://api.shareofask.com/mcp
codex mcp login shareofask
```
Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:
`config.toml`:
```toml
[mcp_servers.shareofask]
url = "https://api.shareofask.com/mcp"
```
### Gemini CLI
```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http shareofask https://api.shareofask.com/mcp
```
Then, inside Gemini CLI, run `/mcp auth shareofask` 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": {
"shareofask": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.shareofask.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://api.shareofask.com/mcp`.
