# Replit Agent

> Replit Agent is an AI-powered coding assistant built into the Replit IDE.

## Prerequisites

Before you can configure and use Replit with Connect AI Embed, you must first do the following:

* Install the Replit IDE.

* Generate an [OAuth JWT bearer token](/en/API/Authentication-Embedded). Copy this down, as it acts as your password during authentication.

* Obtain an OpenAI API key: [https://platform.openai.com/](https://platform.openai.com/).

## Connect Replit to Connect AI Embed

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Open the official Replit MCP learning template available [here](https://replit.com/@matt/Learn-about-MCP?v=1\&utm_source=matt\&utm_medium=blog\&utm_campaign=mcp-in-3#README.md). This template includes a preconfigured MCP runtime environment and sample configuration.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    In Replit, click **Remix**. Replit does the following:

    * Creates an editable copy of the project.
    * Installs MCP dependencies.
    * Initializes the environment.

    Wait for the environment to fully load before continuing.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Inside the project is a file named `mcp-server-config.json`. Copy and paste the following into this file. Replace the authorization header with the credentials obtained in the prerequisites.

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "systemPrompt": "You are a helpful AI assistant.

    Today's date is {today_datetime}.",
      "llm": {
        "provider": "openai",
        "model": "gpt-4o-mini"
      },
      "mcpServers": {
        "cdata-mcp": {
          "command": "npx",
          "args": [
            "mcp-remote",
            "https://mcp.cloud.cdata.com/mcp",
            "--header",
            "Authorization": "Bearer OAUTH_JWT_TOKEN" //OAuth JWT Token from prerequisites
          ]
        }
      }
    }
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Replit requires an LLM key to run MCP workflows. In the **Replit Chat**, when asked for an LLM key, provide your OpenAI API key. Replit stores this key securely in the **Secrets Manager**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    You can now open the **Replit Chat** panel and issue MCP commands.

    For example, enter the prompt `"List all MCP tools."` The output looks like the following:

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    To test whether Replit can communicate with the CData MCP successfully, enter the prompt: `"Show me all available catalogs."` Replit should return a list of catalogs from Connect AI.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    You can now query your connected data source(s) in Connect AI using the Replit's LLM.
