Integration

Rocket.Chat integration

Rocket.Chat REST API v1 for self-hosted instances: post and update messages, create and archive channels and private groups, invite and remove members, set topics and announcements, read channel history, manage users, and upload files to a room. Authentication uses a personal access token plus the user id, both sent as headers.

What you can do with Rocket.Chat

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use Rocket.Chat from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Rocket.Chat in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Rocket.Chat operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
