Common questions

Is Elmo safe?

It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed yesterday, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 4 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?

Elmo MCP Server

Elmo is an open-source AI visibility and answer engine optimization (AEO) platform. It tracks how AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, and others — mention, cite, and describe your brand. Its MCP server lets an AI client read that data and manage the prompts Elmo tracks, so you can ask how a brand is doing and why without copying numbers between windows.

Endpoint: https://app.elmohq.com/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
Auth: sign in from the client with OAuth — no app to register — or send an API key as a bearer token
Docs: https://www.elmohq.com/docs/api/mcp

Connect

Most clients only need the URL, then ask you to sign in the first time they use it.

# Every client installed on this machine

npx add-mcp https://app.elmohq.com/api/mcp --name elmo

Claude Code (then run /mcp and choose Authenticate)

claude mcp add --transport http elmo https://app.elmohq.com/api/mcp

Codex

codex mcp add elmo --url https://app.elmohq.com/api/mcp && codex mcp login elmo

VS Code

code --add-mcp '{"name":"elmo","type":"http","url":"https://app.elmohq.com/api/mcp"}'

In Claude.ai, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other clients, add a remote MCP server with the same URL. The docs have step-by-step setup for each one.

For a client that can't open a browser, issue an API key under Settings → API Keys and send it as Authorization: Bearer elmo_.... A key can be read-only and narrowed to selected brands.
