# Connect to Thegram Cloud

The hosted endpoint is https://vault.thegram.one/mcp, using Streamable HTTP and OAuth. It works while the Mac is off. Local Mac-only folders are not exposed. Google Drive is separate and is not enabled by signing in.

## Prerequisites and consent

- A Thegram account for the hosted vault.
- ChatGPT for its documented UI flow, or an MCP client supporting Streamable HTTP and OAuth.
- The person reviews and authorizes the intended identity in the provider UI. Do not create accounts or change account/connection state on their behalf.

## ChatGPT, dots, and generic clients

For exact account, plugin, OAuth consent and in-chat steps, use the [canonical ChatGPT install guide](https://thegram.one/install/chatgpt.md); this page does not duplicate those steps. The ChatGPT Mac app install sequence is reported verified in the public install source. Dots are mentioned as a usage surface; no separate dot-install test is claimed. Published source documents endpoint, Streamable HTTP and OAuth; no provider-specific generic-client behavior is asserted.

## Verify read-only

1. Call gram_capabilities and gram_projects; use the exact mount key/path returned.
2. Call gram_brief for that path, then gram_read without section to obtain the outline and gram_read with a returned heading as section.
3. Expected: the intended authorized vault/document appears with current revision and content. Keep this first check read-only; do not create a vault or use writes as fallback.

## Troubleshooting

- ChatGPT sign-in loops: follow the canonical guide’s account and plugin reconnect steps with the person present.
- CONSENT_REQUIRED: the person completes sign-up at https://vault.thegram.one before retrying.
- No vault appears: follow the canonical guide; if still absent, contact support@thegram.one. Do not create a vault yourself.
- PROVIDER_AUTH_REQUIRED: the person reconnects the intended Google Drive in Cloud settings.
- E_FORBIDDEN: ask the vault owner about access; do not write elsewhere as fallback.
