Before you start

Pro Plan RequiredThe Ordinal MCP server is available on the Pro plan or higher, same as the REST API. Upgrade your workspace to enable MCP access.
You’ll need an Ordinal account with access to at least one workspace. No API keys — the MCP server signs you in through your browser the first time you use it.
Already have the old MCP server installed?If you previously set it up with a workspace API key, remove it first. Running both at the same time confuses the assistant — it sees duplicate tools.Follow the migration guide →
