The Renovation Room is a remote MCP server, so any assistant that can add a custom connector by link can use it. Same link, same tools.

Under Advanced settings, switch on Developer mode. That is what lets you add a connector by link.
Choose Create, give it a name, paste the link as the MCP server URL, and save. If it needs a sign-in, ChatGPT asks for it here.
