Weav MCP Server

Weav.com Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Learn how to use the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable AI agents to securely access and interact with your Weav workspace.

The Weav MCP server is available for Weav workspaces.

What is Model Context Protocol?

MCP is a protocol that enables AI tools and applications to connect with Weav's data and services in a secure, standardized way. It provides a structured method for AI models to:

• Find and retrieve Weav data (conversations, customers, knowledge base)
• Access specific tools and functionality provided by Weav
• Maintain context about your Weav workspace when working with AI assistants

How MCP Works

Weav hosts a remote MCP server that follows the authenticated remote MCP specification (docs). This server handles requests from AI tools and provides access to Weav data through a secure interface.

Connection URL:

• Streamable HTTP: https://mcp.weav.com/mcp

When an AI tool or application needs to access Weav data:

1. The tool connects to Weav's MCP server
2. A workspace admin or owner completes OAuth consent in the browser
3. The tool can then access relevant Weav data and functionality for that workspace
4. The connection remains live until it is revoked

Benefits of Using MCP

• Secure Access: All data access is authenticated and authorized. Only a workspace admin or owner can finish consent.
• Standardized Interface: Consistent interaction pattern across different AI tools
• Contextual Understanding: AI assistants maintain awareness of your Weav inbox, customers, and knowledge base
• Increased Development Efficiency: Triage conversations, reply to customers, and update your knowledge base from the AI tools you already use

Available Tools

The Weav MCP server provides 11 tools for interacting with your workspace.

Conversations

search_conversations

Search support conversations the same way the Weav inbox does.

Key Features:

• Matches subject, customer name, or email
• Only returns conversations that have at least one message
• Spam is excluded unless spam is true
• Optional filters: status (open, closed), channel (email, chat), limit (1–50)

get_conversation

Get a conversation, including recent messages.

Key Features:

• Use the conversation UUID returned from search_conversations
• Returns conversation metadata and recent message history

send_reply

Post a reply to a conversation as a workspace teammate.

Key Features:

• Requires conversation_id and content
• Sends the reply in the connected workspace

update_conversation

Update a conversation's status, priority, or assignee. Does not delete conversations.

Key Features:

• status: open or closed
• priority: low, normal, high, or urgent
• assignee_id plus assignee_type (user or agent); omit to leave unchanged, send null to unassign

Customers

search_customers

Search customers by name or email.

Key Features:

• Optional query and limit (1–50)

get_customer

Get a customer profile, company, and recent conversations.

Key Features:

• Use the customer UUID returned from search_customers

Knowledge base

search_training_data

Search knowledge base (training data) items by title, description, type, or source.

Key Features:

• Optional type filter: text, url, file, video, qa
• Optional limit (1–50)

get_training_data

Get a single knowledge base item.

Key Features:

• Use the training data UUID returned from search_training_data

add_training_data

Add knowledge base content as text, Q&A, or a website URL. Every agent in the workspace is given access automatically.

Key Features:

• type: text, qa, or url
• url crawls the website and trains on discovered pages
• urls trains only the listed pages, without crawling the rest of the site

delete_training_data

Delete a knowledge base item.

Key Features:

• For website/URL sources, also deletes discovered URLs and chunks

resync_training_data

Re-scrape an existing URL knowledge base item.

Key Features:

• Requires the training data UUID of a URL source

Setting things up

Authentication

The MCP server uses OAuth. When you connect, Weav opens a browser consent screen.

• Only a workspace admin or owner can finish consent
• Tokens are scoped to that workspace with the mcp:use ability
• Admins can disconnect a client later in Settings → Developers → MCP connections

There is no API-token or bearer-token shortcut. Connect through OAuth.

Configuration Examples

Configuration Guide The examples below are generic templates. Always refer to your specific LLM provider's official documentation for the most up-to-date configuration instructions, as setup details may vary between versions and providers.

For OAuth authentication:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "weav": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.weav.com/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Required Scopes

The Weav MCP server issues tokens with the mcp:use scope. That scope is granted when an admin or owner completes consent for the workspace.

Debugging and Troubleshooting MCP-Remote

1. Authentication Problems

# Kill existing connections
pkill -f mcp-remote

# Clear MCP auth cache
rm -rf ~/.mcp-auth

1. Connection Testing

# Test direct connection (starts the OAuth browser flow)
npx mcp-remote https://mcp.weav.com/mcp

1. View Active MCP Connections

ps aux | grep mcp-remote | grep -v grep

Error Handling

• Authentication failures: Restart the OAuth flow. Confirm a workspace admin or owner completed consent.
• 401 Unauthorized: The access token is missing, expired, or the connection was revoked in Settings.
• Tool errors: Confirm the IDs you pass belong to the connected workspace.

Troubleshooting Tips

• Restart the AI agent after configuration changes
• Confirm the URL is https://mcp.weav.com/mcp (including /mcp)
• Check the browser for OAuth consent errors
• Disconnect and reconnect from Settings → Developers → MCP connections if a client is stuck
