What you can do with resOS in Claude and ChatGPT

For restaurants that take bookings and guest feedback in resOS.

Check tonight's bookings and party sizes

List the bookings for a date range, filtered by status or party size. Open one booking to read its tables and comment thread.

Check open dates, times and tables for a party

List the dates the restaurant takes bookings. Then check the times and tables that are open for a party size.

Look up a guest and their booking history

Search the guest profiles by name, then open one for contact data, tags, notes and booking count.

Read the latest guest feedback

List guest feedback for a date range. Read the ratings for food, service, value and atmosphere, and the message.

Create a booking for a guest

Check the open times first, then create the booking. The guest gets a message only if you set the notify options to true.

Changes data

Change, cancel or annotate a booking

How do I connect resOS?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your resOS API key.

Create it in resOS → Settings → API integration (the API is a paid add-on). The key gives access to all your bookings and your guests' contact details. This server uses it only to call the resOS API on your behalf and never shows it. To disconnect, delete the key in resOS: it stops working at once.

Claude claude.ai · Desktop

  1. Open Customize → Connectors, then click + Add → Add custom connector.
  2. Enter the name resOS and this URL, then click Add:
    https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. Claude opens the login page: enter your resOS API key.
  4. In a chat, click + → Connectors and turn on resOS.

Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.

ChatGPT chatgpt.com

  1. Open Plugins, click +, then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Enter the name resOS and this URL, choose OAuth as the authentication, confirm the warning and create it:
    https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. ChatGPT opens the login page: enter your resOS API key.
  4. In Plugins, install resOS, then choose it in a chat.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http resos https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "resos": {
      "url": "https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "resos": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add resos --url https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login resos

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://resos.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your resOS API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

  • Create bookingresos_create_booking
    WRITE: create a booking for a guest. It is a real booking in the restaurant's book. If notify_email or notify_sms is true, resOS e-mails or texts the GUEST (a confirmation); both default to false. Date and time are in the restaurant's local timezone. Check resos_get_available_times first: resOS may refuse a slot that is full or closed. It is not retried: if the call times out, read the bookings before you try again, or you may book twice. resOS may silently throttle the same e-mail, phone or IP creating more than 10 bookings in 24 hours.
  • Update bookingresos_update_booking
    WRITE: change fields of an existing booking: date, time, party size, tables, duration, status, or the guest's name, e-mail or phone. Only the fields you pass change. A status change or a new time can make resOS e-mail or text the GUEST (for example on approved or declined). To cancel use resos_cancel_booking. It is not retried: after a timeout read the booking again before you try again.
  • Cancel bookingresos_cancel_booking
    WRITE: cancel a booking (status canceled, with a canceled-at time). resOS may e-mail or text the GUEST a cancellation notice. The booking stays in resOS and can be read afterwards. Not retried: after a timeout read the booking first.
  • Add internal booking noteresos_add_booking_note
    WRITE: add an internal restaurant note to a booking (for example `Birthday, bring a candle`). The guest does not see it and nothing is sent. At most 50 notes per booking; notes cannot be deleted through the API. Not retried: after a timeout read the booking first, or the note may be added twice.
  • Post booking comment to guestresos_send_booking_comment
    WRITE: post a comment from the restaurant on a booking's guest thread. The guest can see it. If send_notification is true, resOS e-mails or texts the GUEST the message now: you must choose true or false. At most 25 comments per booking and 5 per minute. Cannot be deleted through the API. Not retried: after a timeout read the booking first, or the guest may get it twice.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)resos_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featureresos_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the resOS tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*)resos_upgrade
    Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on resOS (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionresos_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's resOS Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run resos_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with resOS in Claude or ChatGPT?

Check tonight's bookings and party sizes. Check open dates, times and tables for a party. Look up a guest and their booking history. Read the latest guest feedback. Create a booking for a guest. Change, cancel or annotate a booking. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official resOS product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by resOS. The server calls the resOS API with your own resOS access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect resOS to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your resOS API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my resOS key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your resOS API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my resOS credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the resOS API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in resOS.

Can the AI change my resOS data?

Yes, if you approve it. 5 of the 19 resOS tools can create or change data. The other 14 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this resOS server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run resos_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run resos_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run resos_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a resOS tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with resos_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
