Connect an AI assistant
You can let Mistral's Le Chat, ChatGPT, Claude or another AI assistant work with your iwantanew.cv account — reading your CVs, cover letters and saved applications, and creating new ones for you. Sign in once from the assistant and it acts as you, nothing more. We list Mistral first: it is a European provider, so your prompts stay in Europe.
Step 1 — copy your connection address
Every assistant asks for this address. Copy it now and keep it handy.

Mistral — Le Chat
European · recommendedMistral is a French AI company, so your prompts stay with a European provider. Le Chat supports custom MCP connectors on Pro and Team plans.
- 1Open Le Chat and sign in.
- 2Go to Settings → Connectors (or the connector icon in the chat box) and choose Add connector → Custom MCP connector.
- 3Name it iwantanew.cv, choose the HTTP / streamable transport and paste the connection address from step 1.
- 4Save, then complete the sign-in prompt so Le Chat is authorised to act as you.
- 5Turn the connector on in the chat box and ask Le Chat to use iwantanew.cv.
Custom connectors are not available on the free Le Chat plan. If you do not see the option, upgrade the Le Chat plan or use Mistral's MCP docs with a local client.
ChatGPT

Troubleshooting
Common errors and exactly what to do about them, for Mistral's Le Chat, ChatGPT, Claude and Claude Code.
All assistantsThe assistant says it can't find or reach the connection
- 1Open the status page and run a re-check — if the iwantanew.cv connection address is not responding there, the problem is on our side, so try again in a few minutes.
- 2Compare the address saved in your assistant with this one, character for character: https://iwantanewcv.lovable.app/mcp
- 3Make sure the address ends in /mcp and has no trailing slash or extra spaces.
- 4If the address is wrong, remove the connection and set it up again — most assistants cannot edit the address of an existing connection.
All assistantsIt asks me to sign in over and over, or sign-in never completes
- 1Sign in to iwantanew.cv in your normal browser first, then start the connection again — the sign-in window uses that browser session.
- 2Allow pop-ups for the assistant, and finish the approval screen in the window it opens instead of a new tab.
- 3Turn off strict tracking protection or a VPN for that one sign-in, then turn it back on.
- 4If you have several accounts, check you approved with the same email you use for your CVs.
- 5Still stuck? Remove the connection, then add it again — this clears a half-finished sign-in.
All assistantsIt says I'm not authorised, or that it can't see my CVs
- 1Open the status page and check whether that assistant shows a recent successful connection.
- 2If no assistant is listed, the sign-in never completed — remove the connection and add it again.
- 3Confirm you actually have CVs or letters saved in iwantanew.cv; a brand-new account has nothing to read yet.
- 4Approve the connection again if you or someone else removed access from the assistant's settings.
Mistral — Le ChatLe Chat has no “Custom MCP connector” option
- 1Custom connectors need a paid Le Chat plan (Pro or Team) — check your plan under Settings → Subscription.
- 2Look in both places: Settings → Connectors, and the connector icon inside the chat box.
- 3Team plans may restrict connectors — ask your Le Chat workspace admin to allow custom MCP connectors.
- 4As an alternative, use any local MCP client with the same connection address.
Mistral — Le ChatLe Chat added the connector but never uses it
- 1Switch the connector on in the chat box for the conversation you're in — adding it in settings is not enough.
- 2Start a fresh conversation and ask plainly: use iwantanew.cv to list my CVs.
- 3Choose the streamable HTTP transport when adding it; SSE-only entries can connect but expose nothing.
- 4If it stays silent, remove the connector and add it again with the address from step 1.
ChatGPTThe Developer mode or custom connector option is missing
- 1Open ChatGPT settings and look under Connectors for Developer mode.
- 2If it isn't there, your plan or workspace does not allow custom connections — ask your ChatGPT workspace admin to enable it.
- 3Personal accounts may need to switch out of a shared workspace first, using the workspace picker.
ChatGPTChatGPT created the app but never uses it
- 1Turn the app on from the composer in the chat, not just in settings.
- 2Start a new chat, then say plainly: use iwantanew.cv to list my CVs.
- 3If it still ignores it, delete the app and create it again with the address from step 1.
ClaudeClaude shows the connector but no tools appear
- 1Open Claude's Connectors page, select iwantanew.cv and refresh or update the connector.
- 2Enable the connector from the composer in a new chat.
- 3Ask directly: use iwantanew.cv to show my saved applications.
- 4If it stays empty, remove the connector and add it again — Claude caches what the connection could do when you added it.
Claude CodeClaude Code says the server failed to start or is unauthorised
- 1Run claude mcp remove iwantanew-cv to clear the old entry.
- 2Run the install command from step 2 again, exactly as shown.
- 3Start a new session — Claude Code only loads connections at start-up.
- 4Run claude mcp list to confirm it is listed and connected, then complete sign-in in the browser window it opens.
All assistantsIt worked before and suddenly stopped
- 1Run a re-check on the status page to rule out an outage.
- 2Refresh the connection in your assistant — sign-in approvals expire.
- 3Check you are still signed in to iwantanew.cv in your browser.
- 4If we shipped an update, refresh the connection so the assistant sees the new abilities.
All assistantsNew features are missing from the assistant
- 1Refresh or update the connection in your assistant's settings.
- 2Start a brand-new chat afterwards — existing chats keep the old list.
- 3Claude Code users: start a new session instead of refreshing.
All assistantsIt made a change I didn't want
- 1Open iwantanew.cv and use version history on the CV to restore an earlier version.
- 2Remove the connection in your assistant's settings to cut off access immediately.
- 3Tell us what happened through the contact page so we can look into it.
You stay in control
The assistant signs in as you and only sees what your account can see. Remove the connection in your assistant's settings at any time to cut off access.
