This works best in agents that can edit their own MCP configuration and open an OAuth login.
Ideas to Try
Start with your own saved context
Your AI does the planning. Tote brings in the places, recipes, products, workouts, and advice you already chose to save.
1. Ask naturally. Describe the outcome you want.
2. Tote finds the source material. The AI reads only the Totes it needs.
3. You stay in control. Approve any new list or edit before it happens.
Food
Build a meal plan from saved recipes
Choose meals from recipes you meant to try instead of generating another list of unfamiliar dishes.
Fitness
Draft a program from saved workouts
Bring together routines, exercise notes, and training advice you saved across different sources.
Style
Plan outfits from clothes you like
Use saved clothing, shoes, accessories, and outfit inspiration to assemble looks for a trip or event.
Shopping
Find brands that match your taste
Use patterns in saved products and clothing as a starting point for more relevant brand research.
Learning
Turn saved advice into a useful plan
Compare the articles, tips, and videos you saved, then turn the recurring ideas into next steps.
Check the connection
Run 1 search before you move on
A successful setup shows Tote tools in your client and returns results from your own library. An empty result is fine if the connection completes and you have not saved a matching Tote yet.

Your Saved Library
Use what you saved in the conversation
Tote gives your AI account-scoped tools instead of making you paste old links or explain what you saved again.
Find
Search by what you remember
Look across your own Totes by meaning or exact text, then narrow the results by content type.
Understand
Open the useful details
Pull in saved context, links, dates, locations, list memberships, and private notes when you need them.
Create
Turn new research into Totes
Create a private Tote from structured content, or update the title, note, and details of one you already own.
Organize
Keep your lists moving
Create and edit lists, add or remove Totes, and check off items in a to-do list without switching apps.
Permissions and Privacy
Your Library Stays Yours
A connected client works with the Totes your account can access. Your AI client may place returned Tote content in its conversation, so its own data controls also apply.
To disconnect, remove Tote in the client's connector settings. You can reconnect later and review the permissions again.
Your Tote sign-in stays private
The connector issues its own access tokens. Your Apple or Google credentials are never handed to the AI client.
Access is scoped
The sign-in screen shows the requested access. Read access is required; write access lets the client create and organize Totes.
New Totes start private
Creating a Tote through a connected AI does not publish it. Adding private Totes to a public list requires explicit confirmation.
Usage logs exclude your content
Tote records the tool name, outcome, and duration for reliability. It does not log tool arguments, results, search text, email, or OAuth tokens.
Questions
Connect Tote Questions
Account requirements, permissions, supported clients, and the first things to check when a connection fails.
Do I need the Tote app to connect?
No. You can create or sign into a Tote account during authorization. The iPhone and iPad app is the easiest way to build a library from screenshots, links, and social saves, but it is not required for setup.
Which AI clients work with Tote?
The setup guides cover ChatGPT, Claude, Muse, Instinct, Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. Other clients can connect if they support remote MCP with OAuth 2.1.
How does Tote connect to AI clients?
Tote's connector is a remote MCP server at https://mcp.tote.fyi/mcp with OAuth 2.1, so any client that supports remote MCP can connect.
Can an AI client change my Totes?
Only when you grant write access. With write access, the client can create and update Totes, manage lists, and check off to-do items. Read-only connections can search and open your library without changing it.
How do I disconnect Tote?
Remove or disconnect Tote in your client's connector settings. Coding clients also provide logout commands to clear stored authorization.
What should I try if authentication fails?
Check that you are using the Tote connector URL, clear the client's saved Tote authentication, and connect again. After editing a local configuration, restart the client before testing it.
Build Your Tote Library on iPhone and iPad
The app is not required to connect, but it is the fastest way to save screenshots, links, photos, and social finds for your AI tools to use later.
