AI agents in team chat: what MCP changes
How the Model Context Protocol lets assistants work inside your workspace.
The short answer
MCP is an open standard that lets AI assistants use tools and data from other systems. Dock has an MCP server, so an assistant can search, read and post in your workspace under a bot token and the same permission checks as a person.
How it works
Create a bot token
In the Bots module.
Connect your assistant
Give it the /mcp URL and token.
Review the log
Bot actions are audited.
Costs and safety
Dock charges nothing for the MCP server. If your assistant calls a paid AI model, that bill is yours. Give bots the least access they need.
Questions
Which assistants work?
Any assistant that supports MCP.
Can a bot read private groups?
