DIRECT MCP · PRO

One endpoint for visual context across compatible desktop AI clients.

Connection guide

VISUAL CONTEXT, ON YOUR ROUTE

Screenshot context.
Direct to desktop AI.

Sync a selected Framnova capture set, then let your desktop AI retrieve the screenshots, page structure, styles, and assets it needs through one Direct MCP connection.

  • 01 Explicit capture-set sync
  • 02 Bearer-token access
  • 03 Read-only AI tools

CONNECTION BOARD · 01

Pick the desk
you actually use.

Every ready client points at the same endpoint. Keep your Pro token on your own computer; Framnova never asks you to paste it into a chat.

CODEX · REMOTE HTTP

Keep the token out of the config file.

Set a local environment variable, then register Framnova once. Codex reads the value at connection time.

PowerShell
$env:FRAMNOVA_MCP_TOKEN = "PASTE_YOUR_PRO_TOKEN"
codex mcp add framnova --url https://mcp.framnova.com/mcp --bearer-token-env-var FRAMNOVA_MCP_TOKEN
codex mcp get framnova

Then: fully restart Codex and ask it to list your recent Framnova capture sets.

WHAT THE AI CAN SEE · 02

Send a frame.
Not your whole browser.

Direct MCP is intentionally narrow. Your AI client can only reach capture sets you explicitly sync with the extension, under the access scope of your Pro token.

THE THREE-MINUTE ROUTE · 03

No ceremony.
Just context.

Use this sequence once per computer. After that, capture, sync, and ask a better question.

  1. 01

    Capture

    Collect the visual evidence.

    Screenshot a whole flow or a specific state with the Framnova extension.
  2. 02

    Sync

    Choose what crosses the boundary.

    Press Sync to Direct MCP. The selected set becomes available to your authenticated client.
  3. 03

    Ask

    Let the AI retrieve the right layer.

    Ask for the capture, page context, design tokens, assets, or a focused comparison.

CONNECTION NOTES · 04

A few honest
answers first.

Client support is stated as it is today, not as a vague promise.

Where do I get the endpoint and Pro token?

After a successful Pro checkout, Framnova shows both values once on the activation page. Store the token in a password manager before you close it.

Can I use the same token in the extension and my AI client?

Yes. Set the extension endpoint to https://mcp.framnova.com (without /mcp). Desktop clients use https://mcp.framnova.com/mcp with the same Pro token.

Why does the client not see my newest capture?

Capture sets stay local until you select Sync to Direct MCP. Check the extension connection status, then sync the selected set and refresh or restart the AI client if needed.

Can I connect Claude Desktop or Claude.ai today?

Not directly with the current bearer-token service. Use Claude Code today; Framnova needs OAuth before it can safely support Claude's remote connector flow.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Set the route.
Keep the proof.

Start free in the browser. Upgrade when your desktop AI needs the full visual context behind the screenshot.
