Connect Mention to Claude, ChatGPT and Claude Code
Credentials off one Mention screen, then an endpoint your client signs into. Nothing to deploy, and nothing to install.
Create an app in Mention's developer portal at dev.mention.com/apps, copy the access token at the bottom of its page and add it in PopMCP. PopMCP checks whose account it is and locks the connection to it. Your Mention account needs API access, which is a paid add-on on the Company plan.
Access token
••••••••••••3f7aConnectionVerified
Creating alerts, curating mentions, assigning tasks and changing who can see an alert are writes and wait until an owner or admin allows write actions; new connections start read-only. Assigning a task notifies a teammate, and deleting an alert deletes its mentions, so keep people who only read on read-only.

Drop the PopMCP URL into Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex or any other supported client. It signs in through PopMCP with OAuth, so your Mention credential never leaves the server.

FAQ
Mention MCP server questions
What teams ask before putting Mention behind an AI client.
What does PopMCP need to connect a Mention account?
An access token. Sign in at dev.mention.com/apps, create an app or open one you have, and copy the access token at the bottom of its page. PopMCP checks whose account it is with Mention, stores the token encrypted and locks the connection to that account, so there is nothing else to pick. The token never reaches your AI client.
Which Mention plan do I need?
Your account needs API access. Mention's pricing page lists it as a paid add-on on the Company plan, and without it Mention refuses the token, which PopMCP tells you when you connect. Searching mentions with free text, and filtering or sorting by source or reach, also need a plan with search access.
Why do some mentions have a link but no text?
Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other networks do not allow Mention to pass their posts through its API. Those mentions arrive with a link, tone and author details but no title or text, and the answer tells the AI so, rather than letting it read them as empty posts. The full text is in the Mention app and in its exports.
Can the AI look across all my alerts at once?
Yes. In Mention every mention belongs to one alert, so get_recent_mentions reads up to ten alerts in one call and returns the results newest first, with the option to filter by folder, tone, unread or start date. If one alert fails, the others still come back and the answer names the one that did not.
Can the AI change or delete things by accident?
New connections are read-only, so nothing changes until an owner or admin allows write actions. Even then, deleting the alert needs its exact name, deleting the account needs a typed phrase, and the sign-in email and password cannot be changed at all. Mentions are text strangers wrote, so the AI is told to treat them as data and never to act on instructions inside them.
Does it work with the live stream?
Yes. stream_mentions listens to Mention's stream for up to 25 seconds, returns what arrives and closes the connection again, since Mention allows one open stream per account. It also hands back where to carry on from next time. To simply read what is new, list_mentions with the token from the previous answer is usually better.
Do I have to run or host the Mention MCP server myself?
No. PopMCP hosts it and gives you a Streamable HTTP MCP URL. There is nothing to deploy, no callback URL to register, and no infrastructure to keep running or patch.
Which AI clients can use this MCP server?
Any client that supports a remote Streamable HTTP MCP server: Claude Desktop, Claude Web, Claude Code, ChatGPT custom connectors, Codex and the Codex CLI, OpenCode and Z.ai's ZCode, as well as editors such as Cursor, Windsurf and Zed. Your client signs in to PopMCP with OAuth; the provider credential never leaves the server.
How do I connect Mention to Claude Code?
Connect Mention in PopMCP first, then run claude mcp add --transport http popmcp https://app.popmcp.com/mcp in a terminal. Inside Claude Code, run /mcp and sign in to PopMCP in the browser window it opens, ticking Mention on the consent screen. The Mention tools are then available in that session, and no Mention credential is stored on your machine.
Why do only 32 of the 44 tools load by default?
Loading 44 tool definitions into every conversation burns context before the work starts. PopMCP loads a curated 32-tool set covering the everyday workflows and keeps the rest searchable, so your AI pulls a specialist tool only when a task needs it. Every tool stays searchable, and on Scale the owner can load the full catalog for a teammate's connection.
What is the difference between a tool and a trigger?
A tool is something your AI calls, and there are 44 here. A trigger is something PopMCP watches for you: 7 Mention events that can start work on the PopMCP side. Triggers never enter your AI client's context, and none of them ask you to paste a callback URL into Mention.
