Busabase for Pally

Connect Pally to Busabase

Pally is a free personal AI assistant you text on iMessage/RCS, WhatsApp, Telegram (SMS fallback); it connects to your apps and, per its changelog, to any MCP server you tell it about in chat.

MCP connector
A Base of posts in a Busabase workspace, with records, views, and agent prompts

Set it up

Hosted chat has no shell and no file system, so a connector is the way in.

Add the server

Point your chat client at the Busabase MCP endpoint.

Sign in

Complete OAuth in the browser — no client id or secret to create.

Pick the smallest permission

changeRequest lets the agent propose but never merge.

Verify

Ask the agent to call auth_verify before it does any work.

Step by step

This host has no shell, so a connector is the only way in.

  1. Text your Pally (iMessage, WhatsApp or Telegram).
  2. Tell it to connect an MCP server and give it the URL https://busabase.com/api/mcp. Pally's changelog: "You can now plug your own tools into Pally: tell it about any MCP server in chat."
  3. Complete the Busabase sign-in (OAuth with dynamic client registration) that Pally asks you for; Pally's changelog says bring-your-own MCP servers connect "including OAuth and tool loading".
  4. Ask Pally to call auth_verify on Busabase.

Pally shows a heads-up about credentials before it connects a server you run yourself. If OAuth is not offered, create an API key in Busabase Settings → API Keys (smallest permission, finite expiry); Pally's docs do not say whether a custom Authorization header is accepted, so try OAuth first.

Pally changelog

Known gotchas

No dedicated 'add a custom MCP server' documentation page: the path comes from the vendor's changelog and homepage ('Any MCP server or API with an open interface can be connected'). Transport, default OAuth scopes and Authorization-header support are not documented. pally.com/mcp is the opposite direction (Pally as an MCP server). Free for everyone, no waitlist; Cloud Mac is a separate paid add-on whose capabilities (shell?) the vendor does not describe, so the Skill path is not offered.
