Install grants-mcp (Community Funding NZ)

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user grants-mcp-community-funding-nz 'https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=grants-mcp-community-funding-nz&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2Z1bmRpbmcuYWxsdG9vaHVtYW4ubnovbWNwIn0=

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT

    https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp

    In Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

  • Codex

    codex mcp add grants-mcp-community-funding-nz --url 'https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login grants-mcp-community-funding-nz if the server asks for an account.

From the project's README

As published by navtejdhillon/grants-mcp in README.md.

Open MCP server for All Too Human's database of New Zealand community grant funders. Connect your AI to https://funding.alltoohuman.nz/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no login).

Tools: search_funders, get_funder, list_filters, rounds_closing_soon, rounds_opening_soon, report_outcome, suggest_funder, flag_funder_detail. Prompts: find_funders_for_project, prepare_application, draft_application.

Run locally: copy .env.example to .env, fill the key, npm install, npm run build, npm start.

Every request to /mcp must send Accept: application/json, text/event-stream (the SDK returns 406 otherwise), for example:

curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3103/mcp -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'
