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.

Automate a task

Put Quip to work on one thing.

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

Quip 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 Quip 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. 12 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 Quip, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Quip owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Quip account to my AI?

    You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and then authorize the connection using a Quip Personal Access Token.

  • 02

    Can my AI agent actually edit my Quip documents?

    Yes, the agent can edit document content by sending HTML payloads to specific threads.

  • 03

    Which AI clients can use this Quip MCP?

    Any MCP-compatible client works, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 04

    Can the agent see my team's chat messages in Quip?

    Yes, the agent can use the get_messages capability to read chat messages or comments attached to a thread.

  • 05

    Does this work with Salesforce Quip?

    Yes, this MCP is designed to integrate with Quip, which is part of the Salesforce ecosystem.

  • 06

    How do I securely obtain my Quip Access Token?

    Sign in to your Quip account. Navigate to your API token generator page (usually at platform.quip.com or via Quip's Developer Settings). Generate a Personal Access Token, copy the string, and securely save it in the configuration fields below.

  • 07

    Can I provide a Quip document URL to my AI, or just the ID?

    You can provide the standard URL. The agent is capable of recognizing the URL structure, extracting the alphanumeric thread_id, and performing the operation accurately.

  • 08

    Can it read embedded images or files inside the document?

    The agent detects their existence by reading the raw structure and uses list_blobs to catalog attachments. However, downloading the actual files depends on your client's supported capabilities.

  • 09

    Is the edit operation destructive?

    The edit_document function uses Quip's native append logic to add new HTML blocks at the end of the document, mitigating complete overwrites. Additionally, Quip maintains a full version history allowing rollbacks if necessary.
