What vehicles are compatible with this MCP?

This MCP works with any GM vehicle that supports the General Motors Connected Vehicle API, including Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac models.

Do I need a specific app to use these capabilities?

No. Once connected, you use your AI client to send commands, replacing the need to navigate through the OnStar or myChevrolet apps.

How do I identify which car I am commanding?

You can use the get_vehicles capability to list all cars on your account and find the specific VIN needed for other commands.

Can I use this to find my car in the dark?

Yes. You can instruct your agent to flash the vehicle's lights to help you spot it.

Is it secure to remotely unlock my doors?

The MCP uses official GM API authentication to ensure commands are sent securely to your specific vehicle.

Which vehicles are supported by this MCP server?

This MCP server supports GM vehicles from model year 2015 and newer that are equipped with OnStar connectivity. This includes most Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, and Cadillac models. You can verify compatibility by checking if your vehicle has the OnStar button or the myChevrolet/myGMC/myBuick/myCadillac app support.

Do I need an active OnStar subscription to use this server?

Yes, an active OnStar subscription is required to access the GM Connected Vehicle API. The specific features available depend on your OnStar plan. Remote commands like lock/unlock, remote start, and diagnostics require a plan that includes those capabilities. Check your OnStar plan details at my.chevrolet.com or contact OnStar support for more information.

How are vehicle commands secured?

All vehicle commands are authenticated through the GM Developer Portal OAuth flow. Each command requires a valid access token tied to your GM account. The MCP server does not store credentials; it uses the token provided during setup. Only vehicles linked to your GM account can be controlled, and all commands are logged in the OnStar activity history for audit purposes.

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

One connector, every AI

General Motors works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put General Motors to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
