Ask Demiton (MCP clients)
Every one of the five diseases can be asked about before it costs you: which certificates expire this quarter, which variations still have no notice, which days have no diary. Each protection raises its own flag. This is where you ask what sits behind one, and the answer cites the register it came from.
Ask Demiton is how you use Demiton from outside the app - in Claude, ChatGPT, an IDE, or any client that speaks the open Model Context Protocol (MCP). It is the external twin of Studio: the same tools, the same sourced answers, the same identity and audit guarantees, brought into the AI client you already work in. This is the front door to Civil Memory - you ask for what you need, where you already are.

What can Ask Demiton do?
Section titled “What can Ask Demiton do?”Once connected, your AI client gains a small set of Demiton tools:
- Ask in natural language. Query public market data and - for Baseline organisations - your own operational memory: “who won the contract we lost on the Pacific Highway, and at what price?”, “which estimator’s rates held last quarter?”
- Discover and run reports. List the reports available to your role, run one, and get the result back.
- See it as a dashboard. Report results render as interactive views right inside Claude, while the underlying data stays available to the conversation.
- Propose a correction. Suggest a write (for example, fixing a timesheet); it lands in your organisation’s approval queue rather than executing directly.
How is Ask Demiton secured and audited?
Section titled “How is Ask Demiton secured and audited?”Every connection is authenticated - there are no anonymous callers. You connect with OAuth (sign in through your AI client) or an API key, and every answer is filtered to what your identity is allowed to see. Each tool call passes an entitlement, permission, and quota check, and is written to the audit trail. Demiton never invents data; it serves what it holds, with a citation back to the source.
Which tier includes Ask Demiton?
Section titled “Which tier includes Ask Demiton?”Any authenticated user can connect; what changes is what the tools can read. Public users reach public market data; Baseline adds your uploaded history and your live operational memory. See What is Demiton for the tier model.

Frequently asked questions
- What is Ask Demiton?
- Ask Demiton is the MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration that lets you use Demiton from Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible IDE. It is the external twin of Studio: the same tools, the same sourced answers, the same identity and audit guarantees, brought into the AI client you already work in.
- What MCP tools does Ask Demiton provide?
- Ask Demiton provides five MCP tools: ask_demiton (natural-language intelligence across all data sources your tier permits), list_reports (discover reports available to your role), run_report (run a report and receive an interactive result), get_report_run (retrieve a completed report run), and tell_demiton (propose a write to your organisation's approval queue rather than executing directly).
- Do I need an account to use Ask Demiton?
- Yes. Every connection requires authentication - there are no anonymous callers - and a free account is sufficient to connect. You sign in with OAuth through your AI client (mcp-remote opens a browser window on first connect), or use an API key generated in HQ > API Keys; create a free account at app.demiton.io/auth/register.
- What is the Demiton MCP server URL?
- The Demiton MCP server is at https://api.demiton.io/mcp. It uses streamable HTTP (MCP specification 2025-03-26). For Claude Desktop, add mcp-remote in your claude_desktop_config.json pointing to this URL. See the MCP Server setup guide for step-by-step instructions.
