+
+You can now connect your own AI agent to FlowFuse. Your company-approved AI can manage your platform and build Node-RED applications for you.
+
+Add the FlowFuse address to connect, then decide which teams the agent reaches and whether it can make changes.
+
+The address is `https://app.flowfuse.com/mcp`. [Pick your agent on the AI page](/ai/) for the exact steps in [Microsoft Copilot](https://copilotstudio.microsoft.com/), [ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/), [Claude](https://claude.ai/settings/connectors) or [Gemini](https://gemini.google.com/). Any MCP client that supports the HTTP transport works too, including command-line and editor agents and local models. Sign-in uses OAuth where the client supports it, with a token fallback where it does not.
+
+Your own agent gets the full, growing set of FlowFuse platform automation and flow-building tools to run. That matters most where company policy only permits an approved AI agent, so FlowFuse Expert wasn't an option.
+
+Your grant is enforced on every call: a read-only agent stays read-only, and no agent can delete an instance, application, snapshot or team. Every action is recorded in the audit log, marked `via MCP`.
+
+When the agent builds a flow, you watch it happen on the canvas: open the instance and turn on the MCP toggle in the page header. Nothing goes live until you deploy.
+
+This is available to all FlowFuse Cloud users and to Enterprise self-hosted installations from v3.0, across FlowFuse Hub, Edge and Fleet. See [connecting your own agent](/docs/user/expert/third-party-agents/) for setup, including what to check on an instance before asking for a flow.
