Recommended
Configure the connector, create an expert, and verify with the WorkBuddy installation guide.
Configure this client in Quick Start.
Before you start
Choose an API key in Quick Start and send the copied instruction to WorkBuddy. The dedicated installation guide covers the connector, people-search expert, and verification. Restart WorkBuddy and start a new conversation after configuration. The manual OAuth setup below remains an alternative.
See Authentication and API Keys for credential options. Merge only the peoplerouter entry into an existing configuration; do not overwrite other settings.
Set up the connection
Recommended: copy these instructions into a WorkBuddy task. WorkBuddy can help configure the connection; you complete browser authorization.
Connect PeopleRouter in WorkBuddy and create an expert, following https://api.peoplerouter.ai/workbuddy-setup.md.
My API key is {{PEOPLEROUTER_API_KEY}}; replace the placeholder in the guide with it.Or configure manually: open Experts / Skills / Connectors → Connectors → Custom connector. Labels vary by version. The user-wide file is ~/.workbuddy/mcp.json; merge this entry without replacing other servers. See the official connector guide.

}Save and connect, then sign in to DINQ and approve access in the browser. OAuth is supported by WorkBuddy's official connector specification; no API key is required for this configuration. Confirm the tools load and capabilities succeeds. If needed, reconnect or start a new task. WorkBuddy 5.5.2 end-to-end sign-in has not been independently tested here.
Check the connection
Once the client has loaded the PeopleRouter tools, send the request below. Inspect capabilities before running a people search.
Use PeopleRouter to list the available capabilities and explain which tools can help find the contributors to a GitHub repository. Do not run a search yet.After connecting, continue to Using tools. For authentication or tool errors, read Troubleshooting and inspect the client's actual error message.
