Connect a service once and every agent — [Alex](/guide/agents/alex), [Oliver](/guide/agents/oliver), [Tony](/guide/agents/tony), [Kai](/guide/agents/kai), and [Anna](/guide/agents/anna) — can use it without separate setup. ## Add a connection Browse the catalog below and open the guide for the service you want to connect. Follow the guide to create least-privilege credentials — read-only wherever possible. In CloudThinker, navigate to **Connections**, select the service, and enter the credentials. The connection shows a **Connected** status. Ask an agent a question against the new connection. Each guide includes a verification prompt. ## Cloud platforms | | Connection | What agents do | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |

| [Custom MCP](/guide/connections/mcp) | Any tool or API that exposes an MCP server, immediately available to all agents | If a service isn't in the catalog, add it as a [custom MCP connection](/guide/connections/mcp) — no connector code required. ## Security * **Least privilege** — grant only the permissions the agents need for your use case; start read-only and widen later. * **Read-only by default** — use read-only credentials unless you want agents to make changes through this connection. * **Rotate credentials** — rotate keys and tokens on your normal schedule; CloudThinker picks up the new value when you update the connection. * **Revoke on offboarding** — remove the credential at the provider when you delete a connection or a teammate leaves. ## Related Set up the most common starting connection with an IAM role or access keys. Extend agents with any tool that speaks the Model Context Protocol. See what Alex, Oliver, Tony, Kai, and Anna do with your connections. Let agents act on connected services in Manual or Auto mode.
