    02 · PERMISSIONS

    You decide what it can touch.

    Every connection shows the consent screen, even for an app you’ve connected before. Each one carries its own family and its own rules.

    • One family per connectionIn two families? Connect twice, with different rules.
    • Everything starts at No accessTurn modules on one by one. Names and members are always visible.
    • It acts as youSame sharing rules as the app. Someone’s private list stays private.
    • Deletes go to a 30-day trashTasks, lists, notes, expenses and events can be restored.
    • Disconnect any timeSettings → Connected apps. Idle for 30 days, it expires.

    03 · TOOLS

    98 tools. The same rules
    as the app.

    Every module you switch on brings its own tools. Writes go through the same validation and send the same notifications as the app.

    04 · WIDGETS

    Live cards,
    not walls of JSON.

    In Claude, ChatGPT and VS Code, answers come back as interactive cards. Tick a task, mark a service done, scale a recipe, right in the chat.

    ChatGPT logs 87,634 km for a Mercedes A 180 from a photo of the dashboard and shows the vehicle widget with overdue brake fluid. Next to it, the Today widget with due tasks and the Lidl shopping list widget.

    05 · SELF-HOST

    Your server,
    your address.

    The MCP server ships with FamilyWell. Self-host it and the sign-in, tokens and permissions work exactly like on familywell.co.

    # your address
    https://<your host>/mcp
    
    # or set it explicitly in .env
    MCP_SERVER_URL=https://home.example.com/mcp
    Read the self-hosting guide
    Does my assistant see everything?

    Only the family you pick and the modules you allow. Another member’s private list stays invisible, just like in the app.

    We turned on Calendar later. Why can’t Claude see it?

    Permissions are fixed when you allow a connection. Reconnect to include it. Settings → Connected apps marks it as Not included.

    Can it file a receipt or a car document?

    In ChatGPT, attach it in the chat: PDF, photo or HEIC up to 12 MB. Claude creates the record and links you to upload the file.

    Which apps work?

    Anything that speaks MCP with OAuth: Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Gemini CLI and more.

    Does it cost extra?

    No. It’s part of every plan, and free when you self-host.

    Your family, one message away.
    Connect it today.

    Start a FamilyWell, add the address to Claude or ChatGPT, and ask what’s on today. Included in every plan.
