Grok packagecloud MCP by usefulapi packagecloud_get_gpg_key
How to: Grok packagecloud MCP by usefulapi packagecloud_get_gpg_key
Add packagecloud MCP by usefulapi to Grok
-
01
Open .mcp.json (in your project root) and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"packagecloud": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://packagecloud.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}-
02
Save the file and restart Grok.
-
03
Ask for something packagecloud_get_gpg_key does. Grok lists the server's tools on connect and calls packagecloud_get_gpg_key itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that packagecloud MCP by usefulapi's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.
Grok Build reads Claude Code's .mcp.json and Claude Desktop's config unchanged, so a server you have already set up there needs nothing new. The Grok web app and X integration do not take custom servers. Grok docs
Same tool, other clients
This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 5 November 2026. It is what
the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.
Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
