Panda IDX MCP Server

Connect Grok, Claude, or ChatGPT to Panda IDX with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The public docs server at https://www.pandaidx.com/mcp needs no login and exposes OpenAPI, llms.txt, and developer resources. The authenticated product server at https://api.pandaidx.com/mcp can search listings, manage contacts, work your calendar, and share properties — just by asking.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants securely connect to your tools and data. Instead of copy-pasting, the assistant queries your Panda IDX account in real time: listings, contacts, calendar, collections, saved searches, analytics, and email.

You authorize once. You can disconnect anytime from Dashboard → Apps.

Connect with Grok (Cursor)

Grok in Cursor already connects to Panda IDX as a custom MCP connector. No API key to paste.

Open Cursor Settings and add a custom MCP connector (or use the Panda IDX connector if it is already listed).

Set the server URL to https://api.pandaidx.com/mcp

Name it Panda IDX.

Authorize on the Panda IDX consent screen (login at login.pandaidx.com).

Start asking about your listings, contacts, and calendar.

Connect with Claude.ai

Add Panda IDX as a connector in Claude.ai. No code or API keys — OAuth handles it.

Go to Settings → Connectors in Claude.ai

Click Add Connector

Paste https://api.pandaidx.com/mcp

Authorize on the Panda IDX consent screen

Ask Claude about your properties, contacts, calendar, or site traffic

Claude also has a Connectors Directory. You can add Panda IDX manually today with the URL above.

Connect with Claude Code (CLI)

For developers using Claude Code in the terminal, add the MCP server to your settings:

Request

# Add to your Claude Code settings
# File: ~/.claude/settings.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "panda-idx": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://api.pandaidx.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude prompts you to authorize on first use.

Scopes & Permissions

When you authorize, the assistant requests access to these scopes:

profile

Your account, application, and granted scopes

Search and view MLS listings, details, and price changes. Create off-market properties when that tool is used.

Write, delete, and email tools should be confirmed before the assistant runs them.

Manage Access

After you authorize, the connection appears in Dashboard → Apps. From there you can:

See which scopes were granted
See when the connection was created
Disconnect at any time to immediately revoke all access

Go to Dashboard → Apps to manage connected apps.

How It Works

The MCP Server uses OAuth 2.1. Never paste an API key. Here is what happens when you add the connector:

Discovery — the assistant finds Panda OAuth endpoints

Registration — the assistant registers as an OAuth client

Authorization — you approve on the Panda IDX consent screen (login.pandaidx.com)

Token — the assistant receives a Bearer token (PKCE)

Connected — every MCP request uses that token until you disconnect

Requirements

Panda IDX

An active Panda IDX subscription.

Grok / Cursor

A Cursor account that can add custom MCP connectors.

Claude

Claude Pro, Team, or Enterprise for connectors. Claude Code works from the CLI settings above.

ChatGPT

A ChatGPT plan that allows custom MCP connectors / Developer Mode.
