How to use this MCP inside flows

Using MCP in FlowHunt

To integrate MCP servers into your FlowHunt workflow, start by adding the MCP component to your flow and connecting it to your AI agent:

Click on the MCP component to open the configuration panel. In the system MCP configuration section, insert your MCP server details using this JSON format:

{
  "mcp-compass": {
    "transport": "streamable_http",
    "url": "https://yourmcpserver.example/pathtothemcp/url"
  }
}

Once configured, the AI agent is able to use this MCP as a tool with access to all its functions and capabilities. Remember to change “mcp-compass” to the actual name of your MCP server and replace the URL with your own MCP server URL.

Overview

Based on the available documentation, MCP Compass is a promising discovery tool, but the lack of documented prompts, resources, and tool definitions limits its current utility for direct LLM workflow integration. It is, however, valuable for MCP exploration and recommendation.
