MCP Service

MCP Service

The MCP Service tile allows you to connect external tools and APIs via the Smithery platform. This makes it possible to interact with databases, search engines, documents, messengers, and other services directly from Tila.

What does it do?

Integrates an external service into your scenario. After connecting, the MCP service becomes available as a tool — you can call it from the canvas and use it in any context.

When to use?

  • For integrating with Notion, GitHub, Figma, Telegram, DuckDuckGo, and other services — to work with data, create documents, search for information, and automate actions.

Main tile elements

Connection parameters

Each service has its own set of parameters.

Example: Notion API
Fields to connect:

  • notionApiKey — must start with ntn_
  • notionDatabaseId — the database for reading or writing
  • notionParentPageId — parent page (if you want to create a new database)

Smithery will prompt you for the necessary fields.

“Apply” button

Saves and activates the connection. After that, the service will be available as a tool.

How to use

  1. Add the MCP Service tile to the canvas.
  2. Find the required service using the built-in search.
  3. Enter the connection parameters.
  4. Click Apply.

How to connect your own service?

You can integrate your own service using the Smithery platform. Detailed instructions for creating an MCP service are in the Smithery documentation.

Recommendations

  • Use the Task tile for regular calls to the MCP service.
  • In an agent, the MCP service can be specified as an external tool, and the agent will use it as needed.
