Questions
What does updateMyIdentity do?
Change the account's own identity: any subset of name, username, profile picture, pronouns, time zone, language and bio. It is one of the tools The Cloud MCP server gives every connected AI.
How do I use updateMyIdentity from Claude or ChatGPT?
Connect your AI to The Cloud at https://mcp.thecloud.so/mcp and sign in once. Then ask Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any AI connected to The Cloud "change my name", and it calls updateMyIdentity.
Is updateMyIdentity safe to let an AI call?
updateMyIdentity widens who can see or receive something, so the owner approves every call explicitly. An AI cannot approve it for itself.
