    • Server URL: https://panel.orb.net/mcp
    • Authentication: API key
    • Type: Header
    • Header name: Authorization
  6. Click Create.
  7. Next to Connection, click Not connected and select Create new connection.
  8. Enter Bearer orb-ok1-YourAPIToken (using your own API key) and click Create.
  9. Click Add.
