In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@CHARMWhat is the spark plug gap for a 2001 Toyota Camry?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
CHARM — OEM Automotive Data for AI Agents (MCP)
CHARM is an MCP server that gives AI agents authoritative OEM automotive repair data — factory service-manual part numbers, torque specs, fluid capacities, and procedures for vehicles 1982–2013, across 80+ makes.
Answers come straight from OEM factory service manuals, not a model's memory — so they're verifiable and source-attributed, not hallucinated. When a part number is identified, CHARM also returns links to purchase that exact part.
Built to be called by AI agents — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and beyond.
Connect (hosted — no install)
Remote MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP):

claude mcp add --transport http charm https://mcp.chatwithcharm.com/mcpClaude Desktop — Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL above.
Config-file clients (Cursor, etc.)
{
"mcpServers": {
"charm": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.chatwithcharm.com/mcp" }

}Then just ask naturally:
What's the front brake caliper part number for a 2009 Ford Taurus X, and where can I buy it?
What's the spark plug gap for a 2001 Toyota Camry?
