Connect Genealogy Researcher

It takes 2 minutes. You need Claude or ChatGPT and an email address. There is no password.

1. Add the connector

Choose the assistant you use.

The easiest way is the Claude directory.

Add to Claude

Then select Connect, sign in with the code we email you and select Allow.

Or add it by link

The link is the address of Genealogy Researcher. Your assistant uses it to reach your trees.

ChatGPT calls a connector an “MCP server”. MCP is the standard way for an assistant to use an outside tool.

Ask your tree is a chat on this site, for people without Claude or ChatGPT. It opens soon. Until then, use Claude or ChatGPT.

2. Check that it works

Start a new chat, make sure the connector is on, and send this message.

Message to send

What family trees do I have?

If the assistant answers, you are connected. A new account has no trees yet, so the answer may say so.

3. Upload a GEDCOM file

A GEDCOM file is the export from your family tree program or website. It ends in .ged, .gedcom or .zip.

  1. In the chat, ask: Help me upload a GEDCOM file.
  2. The assistant sends a link to this site. Open it and sign in with the same email.
  3. On the page that opens, choose your file or drop it there. The upload starts by itself.
  4. Wait until the tree is ready. Large files take a minute.
  5. Go back to the chat and ask about your family, for example: Who are the oldest ancestors in my tree?

Not working?

I do not see Add custom connector

Custom connectors are not on every plan or workspace. Check your plan, or ask the admin of your workspace to allow them.

The code email does not arrive

Wait a minute, check the spam folder, then ask for a new code. Use the same email every time.

The assistant does not use the tools

Open a new chat and turn the Genealogy Researcher connector on for it. Then send the message from step 3 again.
