Connect AI agents to INSIDE
The INSIDE Gateway has two endpoints for AI agents that work on behalf of a business. Both use the same installation grants, quotas and checks as the REST API.
| Endpoint | Protocol | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
https://api.inside.chat/mcp |
Model Context Protocol, Streamable HTTP | Coding agents and assistants such as Codex, Claude Code and Cursor that call tools interactively |
https://api.inside.chat/a2a |
Agent2Agent 1.0, JSON-RPC | Other agents that submit structured tasks and poll for results |
An agent sees only the websites and data its credential allows. Listing a tool or reading a guide never grants extra access.
