What it is

The raw MCP endpoint for anything that speaks the protocol, with per-workspace keys.

What Riley can do here

Ask for work in plain language and Riley does it with the same tools, memory, and rules as everywhere else. Reading and drafting happen freely; anything that writes outside your workspace waits for your approval.

Easy setup

No code required.

  1. Mint a Riley key in Settings (it is shown once).
  2. Point your MCP client at the Riley endpoint.
  3. Send the key as the x-api-key header.

Advanced setup

For technical users.

Permission model

Whatever client you connect gets Riley's tools only; external writes still queue for approval.

Proof captured

Actions taken through this surface appear in your approvals queue and receipts like any other Riley work.

Security

Keys and access.

Keys are per workspace, shown once when you mint them, stored only as a hash, and revocable in Settings at any time. Riley cannot show a key again after minting, so if you lose one, revoke it and mint a new one. No surface gets a side door: every external write still passes through your approvals queue.

See the security page for the full permission model and proof receipts for how work is recorded.
