Cortega Assist

Cortega Assist is a free, hosted service at assist.cortega.ai. Connect an agent (Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-capable client) to it, and it answers questions about Cortega concepts, AI-infrastructure concepts, and gateway configuration, with no account and no API key.

Connect your agent​

The endpoint is https://assist.cortega.ai/mcp, over the Streamable HTTP transport, with no authentication.

  • Claude (Desktop or web): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, then paste https://assist.cortega.ai/mcp.
  • Any other MCP client: point it at https://assist.cortega.ai/mcp using its remote Streamable HTTP connection option. No API key, header, or account is needed.

What it answers​

  • Plain-English explanations of Cortega concepts and AI-infrastructure concepts.
  • Gateway-configuration field lookups and search over the pinned configuration documentation.
  • Error lookups, symptom diagnosis, and healthy-baseline references.
  • Annotated analysis of a pasted gateway config, with findings.

What it doesn't do​

It holds no customer state and makes no outbound calls to a customer's own systems. It answers from a knowledge pack built at each Cortega release, and analyzes a config only when that config is passed to it directly as an argument. It sticks to what an operator can actually see and verify: container status, logs, console fields, observed request behavior.

See For AI Agents for the full tool list.

Customer-managed multi-tenant setup​

Assist includes the on-prem multi-tenant setup guide: .env inputs, client URLs, nginx routes, tenant SSO and AI Booster/Endpoint Guard/VS Code registration. Ask about these topics through its Cortega concept tools. Answers use the knowledge pack shipped with the Assist deployment; rebuild and redeploy that pack when the guide changes. Assist is deployed separately from the core package. ASSIST_MCP_BASE_URL and ASSIST_MCP_INTERNAL_TOKEN connect the console REST caller; the public /mcp route is separate.
