AI Assistants (MCP)

The Resytech MCP server (Model Context Protocol) lets an AI assistant like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any other MCP-compatible client read information from your Resytech account, so you can ask it questions in plain English:

• "What activities does this location offer?"
• "What jet-ski slots are open next Saturday afternoon?"
• "Look up booking A2JF6C55 — what time and how much owed?"

You connect your assistant once with an MCP token you generate in the dashboard. The token controls which locations and what kind of data the assistant can see. The MCP server is read-only — an assistant can look things up but cannot create, change, or cancel anything.

What you get

The token unlocks up to six tools an AI client can call:

Creating a token

1. In the dashboard, go to Location Settings and open the MCP Tokens tab.
2. Click Create Token.
3. Fill in the form:
   • Name — anything memorable. "Front-desk AI", "Personal Claude Desktop", etc.
   • Locations — pick one or more locations the assistant should be allowed to read. You can only choose locations within your own company.
   • Permissions — see the next section.
   • Expiry (optional) — leave blank for no expiry. You can revoke or disable a token any time.
4. Click Create Token.
5. The plaintext token is shown once on the next screen. Copy it now — for security, it is never shown again. Only a hash is stored on our side.

If you lose a token, just revoke it and create a new one.

Permissions

A token grants only the permissions you tick when creating it. They stack: each one unlocks a small group of tools and a slice of data.

A token with only Activities & availability is the safest choice — your AI can answer scheduling questions but cannot see any customer's name, email, phone, or booking history.

A token with Bookings but no Customer details can answer "what's on the schedule for Saturday?" and "how much is owed on booking A2JF6C55?" without exposing PII.

A token with all three is appropriate for an AI assistant used by staff to look customers up by name or email.

Connecting an AI client

The MCP server lives at https://mcp.resytech.com. The token goes in the Authorization header as Bearer rmcp_....

Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop's built-in Custom Connectors UI (Settings → Connectors) currently supports OAuth only — it doesn't accept Bearer tokens. To connect to the Resytech MCP server, use the official mcp-remote bridge in your claude_desktop_config.json (on Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json, on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "resytech": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote@latest",
        "https://mcp.resytech.com/",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer rmcp_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Three notes:

• npx requires Node.js. Install Node from nodejs.org if node --version errors in your terminal.
• The token lives in env, not in args. Claude Desktop on Windows has a known escaping bug for spaces inside args that mangles the header; passing the value through an environment variable works around it. The literal Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER} in args is left as-is (no space around the colon).
• Fully quit Claude Desktop (tray icon → Quit, not just closing the window) before relaunching, otherwise the config isn't reloaded.

After restart, the Resytech tools appear in the tool list (🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat box) and Claude calls them automatically when a question would benefit.

Cursor / Continue / other MCP clients

Most MCP clients accept the same configuration shape. Look for an MCP or "Model Context Protocol" settings page and add a server with:

• Transport: HTTP (sometimes called Streamable HTTP)
• URL: https://mcp.resytech.com/
• Header: Authorization: Bearer rmcp_your_token_here

Trying it out

Once configured, ask your assistant something it would need the tools to answer:

• "What activities are offered at my location?"
• "Check jet-ski availability next Friday."
• "What bookings are confirmed for this weekend?"

If you have a Bookings permission you can also try:

• "Look up booking A2JF6C55."
• "Show me pending bookings for next month."

Managing tokens

Back in Location Settings → MCP Tokens, every token your company has created shows up with its name, prefix (the first 12 characters like rmcp_a1b2…), permissions, locations, expiry, and last-used date.

You can:

• Disable a token — a soft toggle. The token stops working immediately but you can re-enable it later without re-issuing it. Use this when you're rotating credentials in a client and want to make sure the old one stops working the moment you swap.
• Revoke a token — permanent. The token is invalidated forever. Use this when a token is compromised, when an employee leaves, or when you're sure it's no longer needed. Revoked tokens stay in the list for audit history but cannot be re-enabled.

Security notes

• The plaintext token is shown once at creation. Treat it like a password.
• Tokens carry long-lived, location-scoped read access. Don't paste them in screenshots, public chat channels, or unencrypted notes.
• The MCP server is read-only. No AI assistant connected through this server can create, modify, or cancel bookings, change pricing, refund payments, or alter any setting.
• All connections use HTTPS. The server never accepts unencrypted connections.
• Only administrators can create, disable, or revoke MCP tokens. Regular staff users cannot mint credentials that would grant customer-PII access.
• The MCP server is rate-limited per token to protect against runaway clients.

What is not (yet) supported

• Customer-facing tokens. The current MCP server is for operators only. A public/anonymous tier scoped to availability lookups for customers' own AI clients is a planned future addition.
• Activity-level scoping. Tokens are scoped to locations. Restricting a token to specific activities at a location (e.g. only jet skis at Diversey Harbor) is not yet available.
• Write tools. Creating, rescheduling, or canceling bookings via MCP is not supported. If you need an AI to perform actions, do it through the dashboard.
• Party-size / specific-equipment filtering on availability. check_availability returns all slots with any inventory open. It does not yet filter by "slots that can fit a party of 4" or "slots with a specific equipment type available".
