Use GateWire with your AI agent

GateWire exposes the same customer jobs three ways: a remote MCP server at /mcp, a REST API at /api/v1 (documented in /openapi.json), and the gatewire CLI. All three call the same functions as the website, so a key never grants more than signing in at gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev would.

1. Create an API key

Sign in, open your account, and create a key under Agent access. Choose read (status, scheduling state) or read+write (also request an install and offer your availability). The plaintext (gw_sk_...) is shown once -- store it like a password. Revoke it any time from the same page.

2. Connect your client

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http gatewire https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer gw_sk_..."

Or in .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gatewire": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${GATEWIRE_API_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}

claude.ai / Claude Desktop

Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector > URL https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp, then add a fixed request header Authorization: Bearer gw_sk_....

Cursor

.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gatewire": {
      "url": "https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:GATEWIRE_API_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}

ChatGPT / Codex

codex mcp add gatewire --url https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp

TOML:

[mcp_servers.gatewire]
url = "https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "GATEWIRE_API_KEY"

ChatGPT's own connectors currently require OAuth for a custom server; until GateWire ships one (see Status below), use Codex or the Responses API's mcp tool with an authorization header instead of the ChatGPT connectors UI. The search / fetch tools (public pages only) are also reachable without a key for a deep-research-style connector.

VS Code

{
  "servers": {
    "gatewire": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:GATEWIRE_API_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}

CLI

gatewire-cli: one file, zero dependencies, served from this site (Node 18 or newer). The npm package named gatewire belongs to an unrelated company -- do not install it.

curl -fsSLO https://gatewire.dev-50e.workers.dev/cli/gatewire.mjs
node gatewire.mjs login
node gatewire.mjs whoami
node gatewire.mjs status
node gatewire.mjs request-install --distance-ft 180
node gatewire.mjs availability --day 2026-11-03:morning --day 2026-11-04:afternoon
node gatewire.mjs visit

3. Tools / endpoints

4. Safety

• Every call authenticates with Authorization: Bearer gw_sk_... -- never a query string.
• Rate limit: 300 calls per key per hour; a limited call returns 429 with Retry-After.
• book_install_slot and cancel_install_visit commit something, so they require confirm: true (CLI: --yes); the first call without it describes what would happen.
• No tool or endpoint here can take, move or refund money. The $400 deposit is a browser-only Stripe card-entry flow.
• Every authenticated call is written to an audit log you can review; rows are kept 30 days.
