How it works
Many AI apps can connect to outside services through an open standard called MCP. Claude calls these custom connectors. The Trilly connector uses this standard.
- You add Trilly once in your AI app's settings, with the address
https://trilly.io/api/mcp, and sign in to Trilly. - Trilly shows exactly what your AI app will be able to do, and you say yes.
- You ask your AI to find or add a skill, or press "Add through my linked AI" on a skill's page.
- Your AI loads the skill from Trilly when the job comes up, so it's always the latest checked version.
Which apps can link
- Claude, on the web, desktop and mobile. On Team and Enterprise plans an Owner adds Trilly first, then you press Connect.
- Claude Code.
- ChatGPT on Business, Enterprise and Edu plans, where custom apps that take actions are a beta feature your admin may need to allow. Pro's developer mode can only read, so it can't add skills. See the ChatGPT guide.
- Other AI apps that can add a remote MCP server with sign-in, such as Cursor and GitHub Copilot in VS Code (Copilot guide).
Some apps can't link. GitHub Copilot's cloud agent can't use connectors that need a sign-in, so give it skills as folders instead. Gemini's custom MCP apps are only for personal accounts in the US. If your app can't link, download skills and follow the guide for your app.
What Trilly can and can't see
- Trilly sees which skills you've added, which AI app you linked and when it was last used, and the short result notes used for public numbers.
- Trilly never sees your conversations, your files or anything else in your AI account.
- You can unlink at any time in your AI app's settings or in Settings, Linked AI apps. Disconnecting there signs the app out straight away.
