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.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

GitBook 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 GitBook 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.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 8 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of GitBook, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with GitBook. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

  • 02

    Developers

    They use the agent to debug integrations and check page hierarchies directly in their IDE.

  • 03

    Product Managers

    They use the agent to audit how documentation is organized across different collections.

  • 04

    Customer Support

    They use the agent to quickly pull technical answers from product spaces to help users.

FAQ

Questions GitBook owners ask.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

    This MCP works with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

  • 03

    Can the AI read the actual text in my documents?

    Yes, the agent can use the get_page capability to read the full content of your documentation pages.

  • 04

    Does this MCP work with my existing GitBook permissions?

    Yes, the agent operates using the permissions and context of your authenticated GitBook profile.

  • 05

    The agent can perform searches within specific spaces to find relevant snippets and content.

  • 06

    Can my agent search for technical content across all my GitBook spaces?

    Yes. Use the 'search_content' capability. Provide the 'space_id' and your query. The agent will execute cross-page search operations within that GitBook namespace, returning matching snippets and relevant content natively.

  • 07

    How do I retrieve the full content of a specific documentation page via chat?

    Use the 'get_page' capability. You will need the 'space_id' and the 'page_id'. Your agent will read the full document content from GitBook, allowing you to summarize, analyze, or verify the information flawlessly.

  • 08

    Can I see how my product documentations are grouped through the agent?

    Absolutely. Use the 'list_collections' capability with your Organization ID. Your agent will retrieve the collections that group multiple spaces, helping you understand your documentation hierarchy natively.
