AI and MCP ​

Brainitive works with AI in two ways: an AI writer inside docs and issues that uses your workspace's own AI provider, and an MCP connector that lets assistants like Claude or ChatGPT work with your Brainitive content.

Both only ever see what you yourself can open.

Set up the AI provider (workspace admins) ​

The in-app AI uses an AI provider your workspace chooses ("bring your own key"). In Workspace settings → AI:

  1. Enter the provider's endpoint (an OpenAI-compatible API, for example https://api.openai.com) and your API key.
  2. Click Fetch Available Models and Select Model.
  3. Click Save AI Settings.

Until this is done, the AI buttons don't appear.

The AI writer in docs and issues ​

In a doc or an issue description, click AI in the editor toolbar. Type what you want in Tell AI what to do..., or pick one of the Actions, such as Improve writing, Fix spelling & grammar, Make concise, Make formal, Simplify language, Summarize writing or a translation. Select text first to work on just that part.

The AI knows your project's name and description, so its answers fit your project. You see the result first and decide whether to use it — for example with Replace, or Retry for another answer. Generate prompt turns the text (in an issue, together with its title) into an implementation prompt for a coding assistant.

The project assistant ​

On the project page, under Tools, the AI assistant can Summarize project, Draft a task or write an Implementation prompt, all from the project description. Review the result, then copy it, Save as draft doc, or (for a summary) Use as project description.

Meeting notes → issues ​

Turn meeting notes into issues:

  • In a doc, open ⋯ → Extract action items, or
  • on the project page, under Tools, use Meeting notes → issues and paste your notes.

The AI suggests each action item with the sentence it came from, an owner (only project members) and a due date (only when the notes are clear about it). Possible duplicates are marked. You edit, pick and create only what you want — clicking Create twice never creates issues twice.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants (MCP) ​

Brainitive has a built-in MCP server, so AI assistants that support MCP connectors can read and update your workspace: search, read and write docs, create and update issues, comment, plan sprints, edit Gantt plans, manage task lists and look at your calendar.

  1. In your AI app, add a new custom connector (MCP server).
  2. Use your Brainitive address followed by /mcp, for example https://brainitive.example.com/mcp.
  3. The app sends you to Brainitive to sign in and approve the connection.

WARNING

The approval screen shows where you will be sent back to. Only continue if you started the connection yourself.

The assistant acts as you: it can only see and change what you can, and every change it makes shows up like one of yours (for example in the issue history). When it creates or updates something, it gets a link back to the item.

See and disconnect apps ​

Profile settings → Connected apps lists every AI app, the browser extension and the command-line tool that can access your account, with what they may do. Click Disconnect to remove one. Changing your password disconnects all of them.
