MCP

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and other agents securely connect to external tools. FirstLook’s MCP server gives your AI assistant direct access to your player data — so you can ask questions, run queries, and take actions conversationally without switching to a dashboard.

Once connected, ChatGPT can pull the same FirstLook resources and record actions, keeping your playtest workflow aligned across both assistants.

Once connected, you can query your FirstLook data using natural language. Here are some examples to get you started:

  • “How many players are signed up for my game?”
  • “Show me all players from Germany who joined in the last 30 days”
  • “Find players who have more than 10 hours of playtime”

Your AI assistant has access to all the custom questions you’ve configured on your game. If you’ve added signup questions like favorite genre, playstyle preference, or platform, you can query and break down players by those fields:

  • “How many players selected Extraction Shooters as their favorite genre? Tell me more about their preferences.”
  • “Break down my players by preferred playstyle”
  • “What percentage of players chose PvP vs PvE?”

Player breakdown by custom attributes in Claude

  • “Compare my signup numbers this week vs last week”
  • “What countries are my players coming from?”
  • “Show me player growth over the last 3 months”

Use the dedicated count tool for fast totals without pulling full player records — useful when you just need a number:

  • “How many players match my current filters?”
  • “Count players who signed up through Discord”

You can also manage players directly through your AI assistant:

  • “Tag all players from the US with ‘na-region’”
  • “Grant 5 invites to players who joined this week”
  • “Update the role for players in my beta group”
  • “Show me recent Steam play sessions for my game”
  • “Which players logged the most hours last week?”

FirstLook Agent is the AI chat in the admin dashboard that communicates with the FirstLook MCP. Open the full page from Agent in the admin sidebar (Beta tag), or press Cmd + K / Ctrl + K and type /ask. Direct link: app.firstlook.gg/manage/*/agent.

On most pages in the admin dashboard, an Agent control sits at the bottom of the layout. Click it to open a chat panel over the page you are already on.

A Focus on … chip shows which page in the admin dashboard you opened it from (for example Invites or Sentiment). Ask what the screen means, what a number is doing, or what to do next. Remove the chip for a general question about your playerbase.

Expand the panel for a longer reply, or open the full Agent page for chat history, skills, and New chat.

The Agent can look up players and flows, draft announcements, search these docs, and jump you to the right page in the admin dashboard. Before any change, it asks you to Accept or Decline in the chat.
