An AI assistant can build and manage your site for you. Use the Chat built into your admin panel, or connect your own assistant over the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Built-in Chat
An assistant inside your admin panel, under AI Features. You choose the AI provider and model.
Your own assistant over MCP
Any assistant that supports MCP connects to your project and gets the same tools as the built-in Chat.
Both work through your admin account and follow the same rules.
1
Open AI Configuration
In the admin panel, go to AI Features, then AI Configuration.
2
Add a provider key
Under Providers, enter the API Key for the provider you want to use.
3
Pick provider and model
Under Active Configuration, choose the provider and model, then click Save Configuration.
4
Start chatting
Go to AI Features, then Chat, and click New chat.
Until a provider, model and API key are set, Chat shows AI chat is not configured.
Your project's API serves an MCP server over SSE (server-sent events). Add it to your assistant as a remote MCP server with these settings:
URL
Your project's API address followed by /sysAdmin/mcp/sse.
Transport
SSE. The assistant then sends its messages to /sysAdmin/mcp/messages on its own.
Authorization header
BearerAdmin, a space, then an admin session token.
Once connected, your assistant receives the list of tools, the platform's working instructions and the feature guides.
The connection is tied to one admin account.
The assistant acts as the admin whose session token it uses. Every action runs with that admin's permissions.
The admin account must be active.
If that session is logged out or expires, the assistant can no longer connect or act. Connect again with a new session token.
Treat the token like a password. Anyone who has it can manage your site as that admin.
1
Create a dedicated admin
In Manage Sys Admin, use Create Sys Admin to add an admin account for your assistant.
2
Limit what it can reach
In Sys admin permissions, give that account only the screens the assistant needs.
3
Connect and start small
Ask it to list your pages or tables first, so you can see it is connected to the right project.
A separate admin account for your assistant also makes it clear, in each record, which changes the assistant made.
