AI agent setup

Connect Tenqual to your AI agent

Use Tenqual from ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, or another compatible MCP client. Sign in to Tenqual, choose a workspace, and approve access.

01

Connect your assistant

A Tenqual account is required. Your assistant opens Tenqual for authorization; you do not need an API key.

Claude

Open Tenqual in Claude's directory and connect your account. Your workspace administrator may need to enable it first.

Open Tenqual in Claude

Codex

Add the server, then authenticate when Codex prompts you.

[mcp_servers.tenqual]
url = "https://api.tenqual.com/mcp"
default_tools_approval_mode = "writes"

Other MCP clients: use https://api.tenqual.com/mcp with Streamable HTTP and OAuth 2.1 authorization code with PKCE.

02

Approve a workspace

Your browser opens Tenqual. Sign in, select one workspace, review the requested permissions, and approve the connection. Access is short-lived, workspace-bound, and revocable from Integrations.

No shared password or durable agent keyThe MCP client receives short-lived tokens for the approved workspace. Disconnecting the agent revokes its access.
03

Work with tender discovery

Tenqual exposes focused discovery workflows. It does not write or submit bids.

Search and inspect

Search normalized notice titles and descriptions, inspect source facts, and open the authoritative notice.

Review matches

Read Low, Medium, and High matches, fit reasons, usage, and available tender documents. No Fit evaluations stay private.

Manage alerts

Estimate candidate volume and create, edit, pause, or delete an alert with version checks and client approval for writes.

Connect systems

Read ordered integration events and configure approved API or webhook delivery when your granted scopes allow it.

04

Keep a person in control

Read actions can run directly. Creating credentials, changing delivery, and destructive alert or integration actions require explicit confirmation. Original procurement notices remain authoritative.
