What the august connector does

The august MCP server connects august — a research platform that builds simulated Digital Twins of your real customers — to Claude, ChatGPT and any MCP-compatible agent. Anthropic's directory lists 32 tools that interview a twin, run a focus group, field a survey and pull twin reactions to a Figma frame. Sign-in is OAuth, and every run spends metered credits.

Tool names from Anthropic's directory listing. This server requires sign-in, so we could not read tool descriptions or parameter schemas.

Limits

  • The OAuth scopes are identity-only. login.getaugust.ai advertised email, offline_access, openid and profile on 2026-08-22, and the server's RFC 9728 descriptor declares no scopes_supported at all. Those four are OpenID identity claims, not permissions — they read like a scope list but draw no boundary. No boundary falls between reading a transcript and spending $50 on a survey.
  • No tool reads the credit balance. Every billing operation is exposed and no accounting one is. This is the single most consequential gap in the listing.
  • august publishes no tool list. The 32 names come from Anthropic's directory. We could not diff them against a vendor enumeration because none exists on august's site, npm, PyPI or GitHub.
  • We could not read tool schemas or safety annotations. The endpoint returned 401 to an anonymous request, so no parameter-level detail is published here, and we cannot say which tools accept free text versus structured input.
  • Twins are predictions, not customers. august's own evaluation post reports a twin picking a held-out real session out of four candidates 66% of the time against 25.5% for default Claude — a real gap, and also a 34% error rate. august's designer writes that "real customer conversations are what confirm it". Do not treat a focus group result as a finding.
  • Custom twins need your behavioral data. august states twins are trained from existing session recordings, event data, support platforms, CDPs or a warehouse, or from august's own pixel, and that training time varies with how active your users are. Out of the box you get generic vertical twins, not twins of your users.
  • The directory tier and august's own docs disagree. Anthropic's directory records august at partner tier; august's install guide, published 2026-07-08, calls itself "a community connector in Claude's directory". We report Anthropic's tier because the tier is Anthropic's to assign, but the vendor's own page has not caught up.
  • Panel sizes are capped by account. In august's GitHub App — a different product, but the same twin panel underneath — a panel above three is refused as above the account's limit unless raised. Whether select_twins hits a comparable ceiling is not documented.

Frequently asked questions

Does the august MCP server cost money to use?

Yes, every research run spends credits. august prices credits at five cents each and estimates about 20 credits for a one-to-one conversation, about 250 for a focus group, and 800 to 1,200 for a survey. So an agent that starts a survey spends roughly 40 to 60 dollars of a metered balance in one call, at august's own published rates.

Can the agent tell me how many august credits I have left?

No. None of the 32 tools Anthropic lists reads a credit balance, a usage figure or a quota. The tools that spend credits are all present, and the one that would tell you what spending them costs you is not. Check your balance in the august web app before letting an agent run focus groups or surveys unattended.

What OAuth permissions does the august MCP server request?

Only identity claims. august's authorization server advertised four scopes on 2026-08-22 — email, offline_access, openid and profile — and none of them names a research operation. The server's RFC 9728 descriptor declares no scopes_supported at all. Nothing at the consent screen separates reading a transcript from starting a survey.

How many tools does the august MCP server actually have?

Thirty-two, according to Anthropic's directory. august publishes no tool list of its own anywhere we could find, so there is no second enumeration to check that number against. Its install guide names capabilities in prose — interviews, focus groups, results — but never a tool name, so the count is unverified rather than confirmed clean.

Can the august connector delete my research data?

Only one tool carries a removal verb, and it is reversible in name. archive_segment archives a saved group of twins rather than deleting it. No tool among the 32 names a delete of an interview, focus group, survey or organization. end_focus_group and cancel_survey stop a run in progress rather than erasing what it produced.

Does august send anything to my real customers?

No. Every participant is a simulated twin, not the person it models. august states each twin is a digital representation built from anonymized behavioral session data, and the interviews, focus groups and surveys run entirely inside august. No tool among the 32 names an email, message, notification or other outbound channel to a real individual.

What do I need before connecting august to Claude?

A paid Claude plan and an august account. august's install guide states connectors are available on Claude's Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans, and that the first connection asks you to sign in with an august account you create at app.getaugust.ai. Some organizations only let owners and admins add connectors at all.

What data do august's digital twins hold about real people?

Behavioral session history, not identity. august states no personally identifiable information is captured, only behavioral and site-navigation signals, kept as long as the account stays active. Each twin stores dated memories of what its real counterpart did on your product, plus reflections drawn from them, and an agent reading a transcript sees that recalled detail.
