# Setup & Configuration

**“I don’t see TrueNorth tools after connecting. What should I do?”**

First, confirm you generated your MCP link from TrueNorth profile settings and copied the complete link (starts with https\://). For Claude: make sure you’ve selected “Always allow” in Configure settings and restarted Claude after setup. For ChatGPT: ensure TrueNorth MCP is selected in the bottom-left dropdown before you send a prompt. If tools still don’t appear, try fully disconnecting, restarting your AI client, and reconnecting.

**“Do I need to pay for Claude/ChatGPT to use TrueNorth MCP?”**

Yes. MCP connector support requires a paid plan. Claude requires Pro or Team. ChatGPT requires Plus, Team, or Enterprise. Check your AI provider’s documentation for the latest MCP requirements, as OpenAI updates this flow regularly.<br>

**“What happens if I share my MCP link accidentally? Can I revoke it?”**

Yes. Go to your TrueNorth dashboard, open Settings > MCP, and regenerate your MCP link. Your old link will be immediately invalidated. Update your connector in Claude or ChatGPT with the new link. Treat your MCP link like a password — don’t share it publicly.

**“Can I use TrueNorth MCP with AI tools other than Claude and ChatGPT?”**

TrueNorth MCP is built on the open MCP standard, which means it is technically compatible with any MCP-compatible AI client. Currently, the officially supported and tested clients are Claude and ChatGPT. Other MCP-compatible tools may work, but are not officially supported at this time.
