Integration

Steady integration

Steady (formerly Status Hero) is an asynchronous team check-in and goal tracking tool. Read and update daily check-ins, create and update goals and their progress updates, ask Echo questions and read the answers, post asks and custom activities, comment on check-ins and goal updates, and list teams, people, action items and the daily digest. Workspace administration, webhooks and integration settings are left to the Steady app. Authentication is a personal access token (read or read and write scope) sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in Steady.Built from the 40 Steady tools below, on the connection you add once.

What you can do with Steady

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.

Goal, 5 operations

Use Steady from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Steady in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Steady 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"
      }
    }
  }
}
