WorkBuddy MCP, Tested: How to Add an MCP Server as a Custom Connector and Put Seedance 2.5 in Every Task

WorkBuddy 5.9.4 supports Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors through the desktop app’s Experts · Skills · Connectors area, where users can add custom servers via a Custom connectors button, while the web app only displays built-in options. The guide explains how to configure and trust the Atlas Cloud MCP server using Node.js, an API key, and a local mcp.json configuration, after which its 15 tools for image, video, audio, file handling, model lookup, job tracking, and spending reports become available across enabled WorkBuddy tasks. In a cited test, the built-in Brand Strategist expert used Atlas tools to combine a model photo and perfume image into a Seedream-edited portrait and a five-second Seedance 2.5 promotional video, while tracking costs and saving outputs to the workspace. It distinguishes connectors, which provide live external tools, from skills, which supply task-specific written instructions, and plugins, which package skills, agents, hooks, and connectors together. The guide also notes common setup issues involving Node.js versions, environment variables, connector visibility, and authentication, and states that adding connectors is free although WorkBuddy task credits and Atlas media-generation charges may apply.
