Copilot

Copilot is built into the workflow editor. It reads the workflow you have open, understands the blocks and connections that already exist, and can explain, edit, debug, and improve that workflow from natural language.

For workspace-wide work across workflows, tables, files, knowledge bases, and scheduled jobs, use Mothership.

What Copilot Can Do

Copilot can work directly against the current workflow:

• Add, configure, connect, and delete workflow blocks
• Edit existing block settings without rebuilding the whole workflow
• Explain what the workflow does and how data flows through it
• Debug failed runs by reading execution logs and current block state
• Suggest leaner block choices, better models, safer credentials, and cleaner data flow

Modes

Use the mode selector at the bottom of the Copilot input to choose how much agency Copilot has.

Models

Use the model selector at the bottom of the Copilot input to choose the model for the next workflow-scoped response. Faster models are better for quick explanations and small edits; stronger models are better for deep debugging and complex workflow design.

The available model list is loaded dynamically from Recall's Copilot backend, so it may change as new models are rolled out.

Context

Copilot automatically receives the current workflow as context. You can add more context from the input:

• Type @ to reference workflows, workflow blocks, logs, knowledge bases, tables, files, docs, templates, or prior chats
• Use the + menu to attach workspace resources or files
• Drag workspace resources into the input when you want Copilot to use them

When you ask Copilot to edit an existing workflow, it reads what is already there before applying changes. You do not need to restate the current blocks, connections, or settings unless you want to override them.

Chat History

Click History in the Copilot header to see past conversations for the current workflow. You can resume any chat, start a new one, or delete old chats you no longer need.

File Attachments

Click the attachment icon or drag files into the input to include files with your message. Copilot can use images, PDFs, text files, JSON, XML, and other document formats as context.

Checkpoints

When Copilot modifies a workflow, it saves a checkpoint of the previous workflow state.

To revert, hover over the Copilot message that made the change, open the checkpoint menu, and choose the state you want to restore. Reverting cannot be undone, so review the checkpoint before confirming.

Thinking Blocks

For complex requests, Copilot may show an expandable thinking block while it works. These blocks make long-running edits easier to follow without mixing hidden reasoning into the final answer.

Usage

Copilot usage is billed per token and counts toward your plan's credit usage. If you reach your limit, enable on-demand billing from Settings → Subscription.

Copilot MCP

You can use Copilot as an MCP server from external editors and AI clients. This lets you build, test, deploy, and manage Recall workflows from tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and VS Code.

Generating a Copilot API Key

1. Sign in to tryrecall.com
2. Navigate to Settings → Copilot
3. Click Create
4. Copy the key immediately — it is only shown once

The key will look like sk-recall-....

Cursor

Add the following to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "recall-copilot": {
      "url": "https://dev.tryrecall.com/api/mcp/copilot",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_COPILOT_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add recall-copilot \
  --transport http \
  https://dev.tryrecall.com/api/mcp/copilot \
  --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_COPILOT_API_KEY"

Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop requires mcp-remote. Add this to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "recall-copilot": {
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://dev.tryrecall.com/api/mcp/copilot",
        "--header",
        "X-API-Key: YOUR_COPILOT_API_KEY"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add this to settings.json or .vscode/settings.json:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "recall-copilot": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://dev.tryrecall.com/api/mcp/copilot",
        "headers": {
          "X-API-Key": "YOUR_COPILOT_API_KEY"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
