My assistant can’t connect to Typeshoot

Fixes for the usual connection problems: the wrong URL, an expired sign-in, or a local address the assistant can’t reach.

Updated 12 November 2026

  • Check the URL. It must be the public connector URL from how to connect, ending in /mcp.
  • Sign in again. In Claude Code run /mcp, pick Typeshoot and choose Authenticate. In Claude or ChatGPT, remove the connector and add it again.
  • Localhost won’t work for Claude or ChatGPT. They connect from their own servers and need the public URL. Claude Code and Cursor run on your computer and can use either.
  • Check it’s still allowed. If you disconnected the app from your dashboard, connect it again.

To test, ask: “Show my Typeshoot credit balance.” It’s free. Still stuck? Email hello@typeshoot.com.
