## Connect (MCP protocol)
Remote MCP endpoint (HTTP, streamable): https://api.mcp.ai/p_radar?ms=1787296080000
Add it as a custom/remote MCP connector, then authenticate when prompted.

## REST API (no MCP client required)
Every tool is also a REST endpoint, authed with a workspace API key.
Discover: GET https://api.mcp.ai/api/radar/_endpoints   # public; lists every endpoint
