Connect your accounts and apps

Accounts and plugins

Arachne can work through the services you already use, in two ways. Connections links an account you have through that service's own sign-in. Plugins adds any MCP server or API by its address, so she can use its tools. Both sit in Tools under How she works.

She uses what you connect inside her missions, in the same reply, and never sends you to another assistant to do it.

Link an account

1. Tap ⋯ in Arachne, choose Tools and open Connections.
2. Tap Link on the account you want.
3. Sign in on the service's own page and allow access, then come back to Nourva.

The card then shows Linked as your name on that account, and she can act through it as you. Each card says what she uses there.

To stop, tap Unlink, then Confirm.

Add a plugin

A plugin is any MCP server or API she connects by its address.

1. In Tools, open Plugins and tap Add a plugin.
2. Paste the address the service gives you into the box that opens, and send it. It must start with https://.
3. She connects it and reads its tools.

Ready to connect lists ready-made services. Tap one and she connects it; each is marked Open, or Sign-in when it asks you to sign in on its own page. You can also paste an address in her box and say what you want done with it.

Connect https://mcp.example.com and list my open tickets

Sign-ins, keys and tools

• Connect opens the service's sign-in. Sign in on the page that opens, then come back, and the plugin shows Connected.
• Add a key is for a service without a sign-in. The key is sent once and stored securely, never on your phone.
• Test checks the plugin and shows Working with the number of its tools. If it shows Signed in · tools not read yet, your sign-in is kept: tap Test.
• Read again reads its tools afresh after the service changes them.
• Tools lists each tool as reads, writes or asks you first. A tool marked asks you first waits for your approval card each time.
• Remove asks first. She stops using the plugin, and its key is deleted.

Limits and safety

There are limits on how many plugins you can add, how many plugin calls one mission can make and how many tools are read from one plugin. The app tells you when you reach the limit on plugins.

Addresses must start with https://. When a mission has used its plugin calls, she finishes with what she has gathered.

Linked accounts and plugins follow her approvals. Messages sent as you, payments, account changes and anything that deletes always wait for your card. If a page or plugin she read tries to give her orders, the step that would act on it waits for a card that names it.
