Choose how to connect
Ask Codex or Claude Code to set it up
This is the fastest option in Codex desktop or Claude Code. Paste this prompt:
Set up the Covent MCP server for this app.
Name: Covent
Server URL: https://mcp.getcovent.com/mcp
Transport: Streamable HTTP
Authentication: OAuth
OAuth resource, if supported: https://mcp.getcovent.com
Use the user-level or global MCP configuration, not a project file. Do not modify project files. Do not ask me for cookies, bearer tokens, location IDs, company IDs, or tenant IDs.
If you can change this app's MCP configuration, make only the change needed to add Covent. Then tell me when I need to approve a command, restart the app, or finish signing in through my browser.
If you cannot change this app's MCP settings, do not pretend that you installed it. Give me the shortest exact manual steps for this app instead.
You will still need to approve any requested command and finish the Covent sign-in in your browser.

After you connect
Start a new chat or task and try:
Use Covent to find 5 real estate agents active in Tampa, Florida. Show their names, contact information, brokerage, and recent property activity.
What Covent can access
Covent MCP is read-only and available with Starter. It can search buyers, properties, real estate agents, contacts, portfolios, and property history. It cannot send messages, edit records, delete data, accept offers, or start campaigns.
Buyer contact access through MCP follows the same buyer-reveal rules as Covent. Providing the same buyer to the same Covent location again does not create another reveal, and Covent does not show a credit or reveal balance. Reasonable API rate limits and fair-use protections still apply.
Never paste Covent passwords, cookies, tokens, or internal account IDs into a prompt.
If it does not work
- Covent tools are missing: restart the app and start a new chat or task.
- Sign-in did not open: return to the app's MCP or connector settings and select Authenticate or Connect.
- Claude cannot see Covent: enable the connector for the current conversation from + > Connectors.
