Connect the Intercom MCP server to Maito with one sign-in, and your whole team can use it from Slack or email: “What were the top five reasons customers wrote in this week?”

Intercom is customer messaging and support: conversations, contacts and help articles. Connect the Intercom MCP server to Maito once, and everyone on your team can use Intercom from Slack, by email, or from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse. Nobody else has to sign in.

Maito uses Intercom to do the work and replies where you asked.

## How to connect Intercom

Open Connections in your workspace and choose Connect next to Intercom. You sign in to Intercom in a new tab, and that's the whole setup. Name the account and choose Workspace under who can use it. That's the only time anyone signs in: your whole team, shared chats and Loops can use Intercom from then on. Or skip ahead and ask for the work: Maito sends you a link if Intercom isn't connected yet.

## Questions

### What is the Intercom MCP server URL?

Intercom publishes it at https://mcp.intercom.com/mcp, and it signs in with OAuth, so there's no key to copy.

### Can I use the Intercom MCP server from Slack?

Yes. Connect it to Maito once, then mention Maito in any Slack channel or send it a direct message. The same connection works by email and from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Grok or Muse.

### Does everyone on my team have to connect Intercom?

No. One person connects it once and chooses Workspace. Then everyone in the workspace, shared chats and Loops can use Intercom, without signing in themselves. Choose Only me instead to keep it to your own chats.

### Do I have to connect Intercom before I ask?

No. If a request needs Intercom and it isn't connected yet, your agent sends you a link. Connect it, and the work picks up where it stopped.

### Can I limit what Maito does in Intercom?

Yes. After you connect, turn off any Intercom tools you don't want Maito to use, such as the ones that change data. Tools Intercom adds later stay off until you turn them on.
