PasserJack help

Connect Amp

Add PasserJack to Amp with one command. Amp opens your browser to sign in when it starts.

Signs in through your browser.

Before you start

  • A PasserJack account
  • Amp installed
  • A terminal on the machine you want to connect

Amp, step by step

Step by step

  1. Run the add command below in a terminal.
  2. Start Amp. It opens your browser by itself, and you approve access on the PasserJack screen.

What to paste

Sign in with your browser (recommended)
amp mcp add passerjack https://passerjack.com/api/mcp
Use an API key instead

Open Agents, choose Amp, then expand Use an API key instead to create your key. These examples carry a placeholder.

  1. Prefer a key? Open PasserJack, then Settings, then Agents, press Connect an agent, choose Amp, expand Use an API key instead, press Create a key and fill this in, and copy the block.
  2. Save the key on its own line in a file called passerjack-token.txt, then run the remote add command that points at that file.
  3. Amp refuses a secret on the command line, which is why the key goes in a file rather than in the command.
The command
amp mcp remote add PasserJack https://passerjack.com/api/mcp --auth bearer --bearer-token-file passerjack-token.txt --personal
And the file it reads (save as passerjack-token.txt)

Preview the PasserJack screensThe PasserJack Agents panel in Settings, with an agent selector and setup instructions for the selected client.

Open Agents and choose your agent. If you use an API key, each new key is shown exactly once.

The PasserJack consent screen, naming the app asking for access and the permissions it is asking for.

This is the screen a browser sign-in lands on. It names the app that is asking and the permissions it wants, and nothing is granted until you approve it. Read covers your whole ordinary Board, including your attachments. The default edit limit protects items the app did not create from changes; it does not hide them from reads.

Check it worked

Ask the agent: who am I connected as?

A correct answer names your account email, the key or app it is using (for example “Grok - Sep 10, 2026”), and its permissions: read, write if granted, and secrets only if you granted it. If it cannot answer, or names a different account, the connection is not made, so go back through the steps.

Granted write access? Ask it to save a short test note, then confirm that note appears on your board.

Vault reads need both secrets permission and an Unlock for agents window you explicitly open in Vault settings. That permission also includes text and extracted details from sensitive Board images without a Vault window. Review the permission and capture boundaries before granting it.

Manage or disconnect

Open PasserJack, then Settings, then Agents. That page lists your keys and the apps you have connected, and you revoke any of them from there. Connector credentials (Grok) live under Connect an agent, in the Grok tab.

A revoked key stops working immediately. If a client reports an authentication error, check which account it is signed in to and whether its key was revoked before you create another.
