  • Answer cloud cost questions across AWS, Azure, and GCP
  • Suggest cost optimisation steps for your cloud services
  • Work through waste playbooks to help cut cloud waste
  • Explain FinOps concepts in plain language

Install cloud-finops

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 cloud-finops 'https://mcp.optimnow.io/mcp'

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

  • Claude Desktop

    https://mcp.optimnow.io/mcp

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

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=cloud-finops&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5vcHRpbW5vdy5pby9tY3AifQ==

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

  • ChatGPT

    https://mcp.optimnow.io/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 cloud-finops --url 'https://mcp.optimnow.io/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login cloud-finops if the server asks for an account.
