AI Quick Start ​

OpenAI CodexClaude CodeCursor

These shortcuts open desktop apps. On a phone, use the copy buttons in the setup sections below and send the command to your computer.

Use the public Cloudflare MCP endpoint when you want an agent to use this knowledge base without Git credentials or a local clone.

Codex ​

Add the hosted MCP server:

bash
codex mcp add valla-index --url https://valla-index.pages.dev/mcp

Restart Codex Desktop or open a new thread, then run /mcp to confirm valla-index is connected.

Claude Code ​

Add the hosted MCP server:

bash
claude mcp add --transport http valla-index https://valla-index.pages.dev/mcp

Restart Claude Code or open a new session. The tools should appear as:

Microsoft Teams and Copilot ​

Use the same public MCP endpoint for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams agent experiments:

text
https://valla-index.pages.dev/mcp

Fastest Copilot Studio path:

  1. Open the target agent in Copilot Studio.
  2. Go to Tools.
  3. Select Add a tool > New tool > Model Context Protocol.
  4. Enter:
    • Server name: Valla Index
    • Server description: Search Valla documentation, project evidence, delivery context, and the approved repository inventory.
    • Server URL: https://valla-index.pages.dev/mcp
    • Authentication: None
  5. Create the tool, add the MCP tools to the agent, then test with: Search CDP Index for MCP setup.

Teams / Microsoft 365 Copilot agent path:

  1. Use Microsoft 365 Agents Toolkit in VS Code.

  2. Create a new declarative agent.

  3. Add an action and choose Start with an MCP server.

  4. Enter https://valla-index.pages.dev/mcp.

  5. Select the tools to expose, usually:

  6. Test locally through Microsoft 365 Copilot, then package and publish the agent to Teams/Microsoft 365 through the tenant approval flow.

Do not use undefined for Copilot or Teams unless the Microsoft connector is configured with Cloudflare Access service-token headers. Without that, Microsoft clients receive the Cloudflare Access login redirect instead of MCP JSON-RPC.

Local Repository Setup ​

Use these links only when you want to open the Git-backed repository in an agent and configure the local MCP server from mcp/.

  • Open in Codex: uses Codex originUrl matching to find a local workspace with the https://github.com/bakerstreetco/valla-index remote.
  • Open in Claude Code: uses Claude Code cwd matching for this local clone. Claude Code's repo= deeplink is GitHub owner/name based, so use cwd= for non-GitHub repositories.

If the clone is not present locally:

bash
git clone https://github.com/bakerstreetco/valla-index.git valla-index && cd valla-index && npm install && npm run mcp:build

Configure the local stdio MCP server:

bash
claude mcp add --transport stdio valla-index -- sh -lc 'cd valla-index/mcp && node dist/src/server.js'
codex mcp add valla-index -- sh -lc 'cd valla-index/mcp && node dist/src/server.js'
