Grok MCP Setup

Connect xAI's Grok to your JobTread data via MCP

FULLY COMPATIBLE

Grok supports remote MCP tools natively. Connect your JobTread account using bearer token authentication and start querying your project data with natural language.

Before You Start

  • Power User subscription — Get one here
  • JT Power Tools extension installed in Chrome — Install
  • Your License Key (from your Power User subscription email)
  • Your Grant Key (from the JT Power Tools extension → MCP tab)

Setup Instructions

1

Get Your Keys

Open the JT Power Tools Chrome extension and go to the MCP tab. Select Grok from the platform picker to see your configuration. You'll need your License Key and Grant Key.

2

Configure Grok's MCP Settings

In your Grok client or xAI API configuration, add the JT Power Tools MCP server. Use the following server URL:

https://jobtread-mcp-server.king0light-ai.workers.dev/mcp
3

Add Authentication Header

Add an Authorization header with your keys in the format:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_LICENSE_KEY:YOUR_GRANT_KEY
4

Full MCP Configuration

If your Grok client uses a JSON MCP config file, add this:

{ "mcpServers": { "jobtread": { "url": "https://jobtread-mcp-server.king0light-ai.workers.dev/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_LICENSE_KEY:YOUR_GRANT_KEY" } } } }

Or use the Copy Config button in the JT Power Tools extension MCP tab — it pre-fills your keys automatically.

5

Start Using It

That's it! Ask Grok about your JobTread data. Try:

"Show me my active jobs" or "What tasks are due this week?"

How It Works

Grok connects to the JT Power Tools MCP server using bearer token authentication. Your License Key and Grant Key are combined into a single token that authenticates each request.

The MCP server provides 24 read-only tools for querying your JobTread data — jobs, budgets, tasks, schedules, contacts, daily logs, and more. Your data cannot be modified through MCP.

Troubleshooting

"401 Unauthorized" — Double-check your License Key and Grant Key. Make sure the format is Bearer LICENSE_KEY:GRANT_KEY with a colon separator.

"Grant Key expired" — Grant keys expire after 3 months of inactivity. Generate a fresh one from the JT Power Tools extension → MCP tab.

"Tier doesn't include MCP access" — MCP requires a Power User subscription. Upgrade here.
