1
Open MCP Servers
Go to MCP Servers in the sidebar.
2
Enter the server URL
Paste the server’s URL into Connect New Server (for example,
http://localhost:8080 or https://mcp.example.com) and click Add Server.3
Authorize if the server requires it
If the server needs authentication, Dume starts an OAuth flow for it automatically. Servers that don’t require auth connect right away.
4
Confirm it's connected
The server shows as Connected in your list. If something’s wrong, it shows as Needs Auth, Error, or Disconnected instead, with the reason.
5
Use it in chat
Once connected, Dume can call the server’s tools automatically when a request needs them, alongside your native integrations.
There’s no server catalog inside Dume. You provide the URL for a server you already have, whether that’s self-hosted, from your team, or from a public MCP directory you found elsewhere.
