## 2. Connect via NextKS MCP

The NextKS MCP lets tools like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or Cursor access all your connected MCP servers through a single endpoint.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Claude Desktop">
    1. Go to **Settings → Connectors**
    2. Click **Add custom connector**
    3. Enter the URL: `https://app.nextks.com/api/mcp/gateway`
    4. Click **Add**

    On first use, Claude opens your browser to sign in with your Slack or Teams account.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Claude Code">
    Run:

    ```bash theme={null}
    claude mcp add nextks --transport http https://app.nextks.com/api/mcp/gateway
    ```

    On first use, Claude Code opens your browser to sign in with your Slack or Teams account — no API key needed.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

Once connected, the agent can discover and call all your MCP tools. See the [NextKS MCP guide](/guides/gateway-mcp) for full setup details.

<Note>
  The tools available through the NextKS MCP are managed from the dashboard. See [MCP Connectors](/guides/mcp-connectors) for how to add and configure connectors.
</Note>

## 3. Get the Voice app

Talk to the same AI assistant by voice on your Android phone:

1. Open [app.nextks.com](https://app.nextks.com) on your phone
2. Go to **Account** → under **NextKS Voice**, tap **Download Android App**
3. Install and open the app
4. Tap **Log In** — since you're already signed in on the web, authentication completes instantly
5. Tap the orange **Call** button and start talking

The AI has access to all your MCP tools during voice calls. After each call, a summary is posted to your Slack or Teams DM.

See the [NextKS Voice guide](/guides/voice-app) for full details.
