How to add a custom MCP server to Grok Bot

To add a custom MCP server to Grok Bot, ask the Bot in a chat to add the server's URL, confirm it, and sign in when the Bot posts an authorize card.

Here from Google? Hi, we make the server in the screenshots
  • qbash runs Tasks, which are Python programs with AI steps, alongside your connected accounts and shared memory folders. Your Bots can call all of it as tools.
  • You don't need qbash to follow this guide. Any remote MCP server goes in the same chat request.

What the qbash server does

Add it in a chat​

  1. Open a chat with your Bot.
  2. Ask it: "Add this MCP server: https://mcp.qbash.com/mcp".
  3. The Bot shows the server's name and URL and asks you to confirm. Confirm it.
  4. The Bot posts a card asking you to authorize qbash. Choose it, and the qbash sign-in opens in your browser.
  5. Sign in and pick the qbash organization the Bot should use.

Ask the Bot to list its qbash tools to check the connection. Build a Grok Bot MCP server with qbash shows the whole flow on video with a custom server.

The connection belongs to your Grok Bot account, so every Bot you run can use it. A teammate's shared Bot asks before it uses your qbash connection, and each teammate signs in with their own qbash account.

On a team​

Any plan that includes Grok Bot lets you add a server, and it is saved to your own account. On a team, the admin's connector policy applies to Bots too:

  • Teams: Grok Bot is on by default. Admins choose allowed MCP servers in the Team Marketplace, on the dashboard's Plugins & MCPs page. A blocked server shows Disabled by team admin.
  • Enterprise: an admin turns Grok Bot on and grants your group access. If the team uses an MCP allowlist, https://mcp.qbash.com/mcp must be on it. If a network policy has Apply to MCP servers on, qbash's host must be an allowed destination.

Grok on grok.com​

Grok chat on grok.com adds MCP servers separately from Grok Bot. Open grok.com/connectors, choose New Connector, then Custom, and enter the qbash URL. xAI's connectors guide has the details.

On Grok Business and Enterprise, members can only connect connectors an admin has added. Someone with Team Read-Write permission adds qbash in the xAI console under Grok Business, Connectors, + Add Connector, Other. Whether the free plan can add a custom connector is unclear: xAI says connectors are for all Grok users, and third-party guides say custom servers need a paid plan. See xAI's connector management.
