Getting Started

Rootcap gives your AI assistant real context about your life — sleep patterns, calendar, energy levels, goals, and more. Instead of telling your AI how you slept or what your schedule looks like, it can see the data directly and give you better advice.

How it Works

Rootcap uses MCP (Model Context Protocol) to let AI assistants query your data securely. You generate a token, add a small config block to your AI app, and your assistant gets access to tools like query_sleep, query_activity, get_daily_summary, and semantic_search.Your data stays on your server. The AI queries it on demand through the MCP connection — nothing is sent to third parties.

Generate Your Token

Before connecting any AI app, you need a token. Sign in to Rootcap, go to Settings > MCP, and click "regenerate token". Copy the full JSON config block shown on that page — it includes your token and endpoint URL.

Connect Claude Desktop

1. Open Claude Desktop settings

Click the Claude menu in the top-left, then Settings, then Developer. Click "Edit Config" to open your MCP configuration file.

2. Paste the config

Add the Rootcap config block. If you already have other MCP servers, merge the "rootcap" entry into your existing mcpServers object.

{ "mcpServers": { "rootcap": { "url": "https://rootcap.urldocs.com/api/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" } } } }

Replace YOUR_TOKEN_HERE with the token from your Rootcap MCP settings page.

3. Restart Claude Desktop

Quit and reopen Claude. You should see a hammer icon in the chat input area showing Rootcap's tools are available. Try asking: "How did I sleep this week?" or "What's on my calendar today?"

Connect ChatGPT

1. Open ChatGPT settings

In ChatGPT, go to Settings > Beta features and enable "MCP Servers" if available. Then go to Settings > MCP Servers > Add Server.

2. Add the server

Enter the server URL and your bearer token:

Server URL:

https://rootcap.urldocs.com/api/mcp

Authentication: Bearer token

YOUR_TOKEN_HERE

3. Start chatting

ChatGPT will discover Rootcap's tools automatically. Try: "Summarize my week — sleep, activity, and how I've been feeling" or "Based on my energy logs, what patterns do you see?"

What You Can Ask

Once connected, your AI assistant has access to 12 tools spanning all your tracked domains. Here are some prompts to try:

"How did I sleep this week? Any patterns?""What's on my calendar today and do I have time for a workout?""Look at my energy and sleep data — when am I most productive?""Compare my financial snapshots from the last 3 months""What did I write in my morning captures about stress?""Based on everything you can see, what should I focus on this week?"

The more data you track in Rootcap, the richer the context your AI has to work with. Daily captures, connected health data, and calendar events all combine to give your assistant a genuine understanding of your life.
