Connect Muse — Use ambientChat from Meta's Muse

#What it does

Meta's Muse can use your ambientChat context — your inventory, documents, places and skills — the same way Claude Desktop does. Ask Muse "what's expiring this week?" or "find my dishwasher warranty" and it looks the answer up in ambientChat.

Muse doesn't plug into MCP servers, so ambientChat offers the same tools as a web API Muse can call. You don't need to know anything about that: you add one address to Muse and sign in.

#How to connect Muse

1. In Muse, add a custom connector.
2. Host: mcp.ambientchat.ai. If it asks for the API description, it's https://mcp.ambientchat.ai/v1/openapi.json.
3. Client ID: type muse — the same for everyone. Client secret: leave it empty.
4. Tap Add. Muse opens the ambientChat sign-in page: sign in with your ambientChat account and tap Approve.
5. That's it. Muse now sees every ambientChat tool, and any tool ambientChat adds later appears without reconnecting.

Don't type anything else into Client ID — a made-up value sends you to an error page instead of the sign-in page. If that happens, remove the connector in Muse and add it again with muse.

Muse stays signed in: it renews its access on its own, for up to 30 days at a time between uses.

#What Muse knows about you

When Muse starts a conversation it can read the same guidance Claude Desktop gets when it connects:

• Your skills — the playbooks you've saved in ambientChat, so it can follow them.
• When to save an answer to your ambientChat history, so you can find it later.

#Controlling what Muse can see

Muse gets its own row in Context Sharing, next to any other AI app you've connected:

• iOS: Control → myAI Context Sharing → AI apps with access
• Web: Control → Context Sharing
• In chat: "Pause Muse's access" or "Disconnect Muse"

Each time Muse reads or changes something, the access notification says what it did — naming the document and folder when it touched one — and Muse's row shows it, so you can see what it looked at.

#Limitations

• Muse has no "/" menu for your skills. Claude Desktop shows your skills as slash commands; Muse instead reads the list of your skills and runs one when your request matches it.
• Up to 120 requests a minute. Far more than a conversation needs; if Muse goes faster it is asked to slow down for a moment.
• About 5 minutes per request. A big task (a large import, a report over many items) runs for up to about 5 minutes; Muse can ask for it in the background and check back for the result.
• Changes take a moment. Something you scan on your phone can take a few seconds to appear in Muse.
• Same credits as the app. What Muse does through ambientChat uses your plan's credits, just like in-app chat.

#For developers

Any AI agent that can call a web API can connect the same way. The API description at https://mcp.ambientchat.ai/v1/openapi.json covers sign-in (OAuth with PKCE and automatic client registration), listing and calling tools, long-running calls, retries and errors.
