Connectors let Ori access your external services — GitHub repos, email, calendar, Slack channels, and Notion pages. They use the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for AI-tool integration.

Setting up a connector

1

Open Settings

Open Ori → click the gear icon (or press ⌘ ,) → scroll to Connectors.
2

Click Set up

Each connector has a Set up button. Click it and follow the authentication flow.
3

Start using it

Once connected, just ask naturally:
"Show me the open PRs on the ori repo"
"What's on my calendar tomorrow?"
"Search my Gmail for invoices from last month"
Ori’s Skill Graph automatically routes to the right connector.

​
How connectors work

Connectors are powered by MCP (Model Context Protocol) — the same standard used by Claude, Cursor, and other AI tools. When you enable a connector:
  1. Ori starts a local MCP server for that service
  2. The connector’s tools are registered in the Skill Graph
  3. They get the same intelligent routing as built-in tools
  4. All communication happens locally — credentials never leave your machine

​
Using connectors in conversation

You don’t need to specify which connector to use. Just describe what you want:
You say…Ori uses…
”What issues are assigned to me?”GitHub connector
”Draft a reply to the latest email from Sarah”Gmail connector
”Am I free tomorrow at 2pm?”Google Calendar connector
”What’s happening in #engineering?”Slack connector
”Find the product roadmap doc”Notion connector

​
Using connectors in scheduled tasks

Connectors are especially powerful combined with scheduled tasks: 
"Every morning at 9am, check my GitHub notifications and summarize any PRs that need my review"

"Every Friday at 5pm, search Slack for mentions of 'deploy' or 'release' in #engineering this week"
