Deb Get started

Set up Deb in a few minutes

Menus in Claude and ChatGPT change from time to time. Steps last checked 9 October 2026.

Step 1: Create your account and connect your channels

  • Sign up at https://app.dev.deb.works/login.
  • On your account page, click + Add account and choose a channel.
  • WhatsApp: scan the QR code from WhatsApp on your phone, under Settings → Linked devices → Link a device. Or link with your phone number and enter the code Deb shows you in WhatsApp.
  • LinkedIn: sign in with your LinkedIn email and password. Deb passes them securely to its messaging connectivity provider and never stores your LinkedIn password. LinkedIn may ask you to confirm the sign-in with a code or in the LinkedIn app.
  • Gmail or Outlook: sign in with Google or Microsoft and approve the permissions Deb asks for.

Step 2a: Add Deb to Claude

Individual plans (Free, Pro, Max):

  1. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors.
  2. Click + Add, then Add custom connector.
  3. Name it Deb and paste this URL: https://mcp.dev.deb.works
  4. Click Continue, sign in to Deb when asked, then click Add.

Team and Enterprise plans: an Owner adds Deb once under Organization settings → Connectors (Add → Custom → Web), using the same URL. Members then open Customize → Connectors, find Deb and click Connect.

The Claude Free plan allows one custom connector.

Step 2b: Add Deb to ChatGPT (Business, Enterprise and Edu, on the web)

  1. A workspace admin turns on developer mode under Workspace Settings → Permissions & Roles → Connected Data.
  2. Go to Workspace settings → Apps → Create.
  3. Enter the Deb server URL https://mcp.dev.deb.works , choose OAuth and sign in to Deb.
  4. Click Scan Tools, then Create. Deb appears under Apps → Drafts.
  5. Test it in a new chat, then publish it from Workspace settings → Apps → Drafts → Publish.

Other ChatGPT plans don't currently support connectors that can send messages.

Step 3: Try it

  • “List my connected accounts.”
  • “Who's waiting on my reply across LinkedIn, WhatsApp and email?”
  • “Who accepted my LinkedIn invites this week?”
  • “Give me my daily brief.”

Troubleshooting

  • An account shows as unavailable. Its sign-in has expired. Reconnect it in your Deb account.
  • Deb doesn't appear in my assistant. Check that the connector is enabled for the chat, and on Team or Business workspaces, that an admin has added or published it.
