Muse has no settings screen for this. Paste this message into a chat with Muse:
Create a custom connector for Seat Sherpa (seatsherpa.app), the carpool marketplace for California and Nevada. It's a public MCP server over Streamable HTTP at https://seatsherpa.app/mcp with no authentication. It's read-only. Save it as a skill.
Then ask it for a ride. If Muse asks permission to share information with seatsherpa.app, allow it.

Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients
Any app that connects to remote MCP servers
In Claude Code, run:
claude mcp add --transport http seatsherpa https://seatsherpa.app/mcp
In clients that use a JSON config file, add:
{
"mcpServers": {
"seatsherpa": {
"url": "https://seatsherpa.app/mcp"
}
}
}
File names and the top-level key vary a little by client, so check its MCP docs if this doesn't load.
Try asking
- “Find me a ride from Los Angeles to San Diego this Saturday”
- “Any rides from the Bay Area to Lake Tahoe next weekend?”
- “I'm driving SF to LA on Friday, help me post my drive.”
What it can do
- Find rides between two places on a date, with the departure time, open seats and price per seat.
- Show one ride's details, like its stops, the driver's note and the cancellation policy.
- List the areas Seat Sherpa covers.
- When no ride fits, give you a link to request one, so drivers on that route are notified.
- If you're driving, give you a prefilled link to post your drive.
What it can't do
- Book a seat or pay. Booking and payment always happen on seatsherpa.app.
- See your account, your trips or your messages.
- Show anything beyond what's on the public ride pages. Drivers appear by first name only.
Your searches help drivers too: the routes people ask their assistants about show drivers where riders want to go.
