Minds

September 8, 2026·Minds Team # **OpenRouter / Open WebUI | Integrations** Use Minds from any OpenAI-compatible gateway. Add an MCP server (streamable HTTP) with the server URL below. Authorize via OAuth if offered — otherwise create an API key and use it as “Authorization: Bearer minds_…”. ## Setup Connect Minds to OpenRouter, Open WebUI, LibreChat, or any OpenAI-compatible gateway that supports MCP tool servers. ⚠️ Use API key authentication, not OAuth When the model provider (e.g. `openai/*` via OpenRouter) executes the MCP call server-side, it cannot perform the OAuth handshake. The request reaches Minds without an `Authorization` header and returns a 401. Use a static API key bearer token instead. ### Setup (Open WebUI): 1. Generate an API key at [Settings → API Keys](https://getminds.ai/?settings=api-keys) (format `minds_…`) 2. Open WebUI → Admin → Settings → Tools → `+ Connection`3. Type: `Streamable HTTP (MCP)`4. URL: paste the MCP URL below 5. Authentication: `Bearer` (not OAuth) 6. Token: paste your `minds_…` key 7. Save, then attach the tool to your agent ### Setup (OpenRouter direct, e.g. via API): Pass the MCP server descriptor with a static `headers` field:```
{
  "type": "mcp",
  "server_label": "minds",
  "server_url": "https://getminds.ai/mcp",
  "headers": {
    "Authorization": "Bearer minds_YOUR_API_KEY"
  }
}
