Connect AI Assistants

Connect OneHaus to the AI assistant you already use, and run your household in plain language. Ask what is on this week, add to the shopping list, reschedule an event, or check who is assigned to a chore, all from a normal conversation.

Once connected, your assistant can see and update your OneHaus household on your behalf, with your permission and your sign in. This is the same household you use in the OneHaus app, so everything stays in sync.

What you can do

After you connect, you can ask your assistant to help with everyday household admin, for example:

Tasks and chores: "What is due today?", "Add take out the bins to my list", "Mark the school forms task as done", "Assign the dishwasher to Sam."
Calendar and events: "What is on this weekend?", "Add dentist on Thursday at 3pm", "Move the parents evening to next week."
Shopping lists: "What is on the shopping list?", "Add milk, eggs and coffee", "Mark bread as bought."
Contacts: "What is the plumber's number?", "Save our new babysitter's details."
Pets: "When is the dog due for worming?", "Add a vet visit for the cat."
Vehicles: "When is the car's MOT?", "Log that I serviced the car today."
Appliances: "What is the model of our washing machine?", "Save the new fridge with its warranty date."
Documents: "Where did I save the house insurance?", "Add a note for the boiler manual."
Subscriptions: "What subscriptions do we pay for?", "Add the streaming plan we just signed up to."
Weather: "What is the forecast for the weekend?"
Your household at a glance: "Who is in our household?", "Give me a summary of what needs attention."

How connecting works

You need two things to connect: a OneHaus account and the OneHaus server address.

https://mcp.onehaus.app

Add that address to your assistant as a custom or remote MCP connector, then sign in with your OneHaus account when prompted and approve access. Your assistant handles the secure sign in for you, so you never paste any passwords or keys into it.

If you do not have a OneHaus account yet, set one up in the OneHaus app first; it is required for all of the below.

ChatGPT

In ChatGPT, open Settings, then go to Connectors (you may find this under Apps or a similar heading).
Choose to add a custom connector or add a remote MCP server.
Give it a name, for example OneHaus, and for the server URL enter https://mcp.onehaus.app.
Confirm to add it, then sign in with your OneHaus account in the window that opens and approve access.

Custom connectors are a paid ChatGPT feature, and on some plans you need to turn on developer mode to add your own. To disconnect later, open Settings > Connectors, find OneHaus, and remove it.

Claude (web and desktop)

In Claude, open Settings and go to Connectors.
Choose Add custom connector, give it a name, for example OneHaus, and enter the server address https://mcp.onehaus.app.
Confirm, then sign in with your OneHaus account in the window that opens and approve access.

Adding connectors is available on paid Claude plans. Using the Claude Code terminal instead? See the section below.

Claude Code

Claude Code speaks MCP natively. Run this once in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http onehaus https://mcp.onehaus.app

By default that adds OneHaus to the current project. To make it available everywhere, add the user scope:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user onehaus https://mcp.onehaus.app

Then start Claude Code, run /mcp, select onehaus, and choose to authenticate. Your browser opens a OneHaus sign in page; sign in and approve access. If you added it to the wrong scope, remove it with claude mcp remove onehaus and add it again.

Cursor and other MCP tools

OneHaus works with any AI assistant that can connect to a remote MCP server. In Cursor, open Settings, go to the MCP (or Tools) section, and add a new server, either through the in-app form with the URL above or by editing your MCP config file directly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "onehaus": {
      "url": "https://mcp.onehaus.app"
    }
  }
}

For any other MCP-capable assistant, the steps are the same in spirit: find where it lets you add a custom or remote MCP server, enter https://mcp.onehaus.app, then sign in with your OneHaus account when prompted and approve access.

Permissions

When you connect, your assistant asks for permission to:

View your household, so it can answer questions about your tasks, calendar, lists and more.
Make changes on your behalf, so it can add, update, and complete things when you ask.

You stay in control. Your assistant only ever acts on the household tied to your OneHaus sign in, and most assistants ask before they make changes.

Managing access

Disconnect at any time by removing the OneHaus connector in your assistant's settings.
Access follows your account. Your assistant can only do what your OneHaus account can do, in the household you belong to.

Troubleshooting

The connector option is missing. Custom connectors usually need a supported paid plan, and some assistants require turning on a developer or advanced mode first.
Sign in does not finish. Confirm you can sign in to the OneHaus app with the same account, then try connecting again.
Connected but no OneHaus actions appear. Make sure the OneHaus connector is turned on for your current chat.
