How to Set Up and Use gotoHuman
gotoHuman MCP Server integrates Claude and other AI agents with the gotoHuman human-in-the-loop platform, enabling automations to pause and request human approval before proceeding with sensitive or high-stakes actions. The server exposes tools to list available review form templates, retrieve form schemas, and submit structured approval requests with custom field data, assignee routing, and webhook callbacks to gotoHuman inboxes. Teams building AI workflows that require compliance sign-off, content moderation, fraud review, or managerial approval before execution use it to insert a human checkpoint directly into their automation pipeline.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18 or later installed
- A gotoHuman account at https://app.gotohuman.com (free tier available)
- A gotoHuman API key from your account settings
- At least one review form template configured in the gotoHuman dashboard
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf
Create a gotoHuman account and get an API key
Sign up at https://app.gotohuman.com and navigate to Settings to generate an API key. Copy the key — it will be used as the GOTOHUMAN_API_KEY environment variable.
Create a review form template in gotoHuman
In the gotoHuman dashboard, create a form template that defines the fields reviewers will see when an approval request arrives. Note the form ID — you will reference it in prompts and automation logic.
Add the server to your MCP client configuration
Edit your claude_desktop_config.json to register the gotoHuman MCP server. The server runs via npx and requires your API key as an environment variable.
Restart your MCP client
Restart Claude Desktop (or your chosen client) so it loads the new server. On first run, npx will download the @gotohuman/mcp-server package automatically.
Test by listing available review forms
Ask Claude to list your gotoHuman review forms to confirm the connection is working and that your API key is valid.
Submit an approval request through Claude
Ask Claude to submit a human review request using one of your form templates. The request will appear in your gotoHuman inbox for human action.
gotoHuman Examples
Client configuration
Add this to claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json). Replace the API key with your actual gotoHuman key.

}Prompts to try
Once connected, use these prompts to submit and manage human-in-the-loop review requests.
- "List all my gotoHuman review form templates"
- "Submit a human review request using form 'content-approval' with the draft blog post text for a reviewer to approve"
- "Send an approval request to [email protected] asking them to approve this refund of $500 for order #12345"
- "Request human review for this AI-generated email before sending it to the customer"Troubleshooting gotoHuman
401 Unauthorized when submitting review requests
Verify that GOTOHUMAN_API_KEY is correctly set in your MCP config and matches the key shown in your gotoHuman account settings. API keys are workspace-scoped, so ensure you are using the key for the correct workspace.
Form ID not found when submitting a request
Use the list-forms tool (ask Claude to 'list my gotoHuman forms') to retrieve the exact form IDs. Form IDs in gotoHuman are UUIDs, not human-readable names — the template title is separate from the ID.
Review request submitted but not appearing in inbox
Check if assignToUsers was set to the correct reviewer email addresses. If no users are assigned, the request goes to the general inbox — verify the inbox view in the gotoHuman dashboard is not filtered.
