What your AI can do with it

  • Read live posts from Twitter
  • Follow current Reddit discussions
  • Look up information from across the web
  • Pull live data from GitHub

Install glim.sh

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 glim-sh 'https://glim.sh/mcp'

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

  • Claude Desktop

    https://glim.sh/mcp

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

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=glim-sh&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2dsaW0uc2gvbWNwIn0=

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

  • ChatGPT

    https://glim.sh/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 glim-sh --url 'https://glim.sh/mcp'

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

Live data for any agent.

One remote MCP endpoint gives your agent live data from Twitter/X, Reddit, the open web, GitHub, Amazon, YouTube, and public Telegram channels, plus AI-text detection. No API keys, no scraping stack - connect the URL and pay per call.

claude plugin install glim@glim

# Codex
codex mcp add glim --url https://glim.sh/mcp

# OpenCode (interactive: choose remote, paste the URL)
