🚀 Super Excited About MCP Support!

Hey team,

Absolutely stoked to see that ServiceM8 is starting to support Model Context Protocol (MCP) — and even better that there’s a hosted MCP server available at:

https://developer.servicem8.com/mcp

👏👏👏 Huge kudos for getting that up and running!


🧪 A Few Issues While Testing

That said, I’ve been trying to connect using a few different setups and haven’t had any luck just yet.

🔐 Auth Methods I’ve Tried:

  • X-Api-Key in header
  • X-Api-Key as a query parameter
  • Tried hitting directly via:
    • Claude Desktop
    • Windsurf (Codeium)
    • Haven’t tried Cursor yet
    • HTTP clients like Postman / curl / n8n

In every case, I’m running into errors like:

failed to register client: registration request failed with status 404

and

failed to create SSE client: unexpected status code 404

📚 Would Love Some More Documentation

I know it’s early days (and awesome that you’ve launched it), but:

🔍

Could you share a little more detail on how to interact with the MCP server?

  • Supported request structure?
  • Required headers or query parameters?
  • Avalible tools?

Really keen to integrate this with our AI tooling — especially for things like:

  • Generating API scripts from natural language
  • Surfacing documentation contextually
  • Building cool developer helpers with ServiceM8

Thanks again for getting this out into the world — it’s a big step forward!

Cheers,
David
