Connect to the owner's OrangeChat account

OrangeChat has a remote MCP server at https://orangechat.ai/mcp with OAuth sign-in. See Connect your AI assistant, or send the owner the 90-second setup video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQLcA0JXzJQ

Once the owner approves:

  1. Call get_business. If nothing is set up, gather the details in the Setup checklist from what you know, confirm anything uncertain with the owner, and call setup_business. Prices, hours, and policies must be the owner's real ones; the receptionist repeats them to callers.
  2. Help the owner choose between a new number and forwarding their existing number (Phone number and call forwarding).
  3. The owner picks a plan and phone number in the dashboard (the link is in get_business). Payment and phone numbers always need the owner.
  4. Keep the receptionist current with update_business when hours, services, or contacts change, after confirming with the owner.

Without a connection

The owner can sign up at https://orangechat.ai and enter the Setup checklist details on the setup page.
