Questions
Do I need a Nomad Watch account?
Yes, a free one. When you connect, VS Code opens our approval page, where you sign in or create an account with email or Google and choose Connect. Reading Nomad Watch on the website still needs no account.
What does Nomad Watch see?
The tool calls VS Code makes for you: which tool, and the cities, countries or programs the answer is about. We do not store your conversation, what you or the assistant typed, or your IP address. Account tools read and change your saved places, lists and travel profile only when the assistant calls them for you. Details are in the privacy section.
How do I disconnect?
Choose Disconnect next to the assistant under Connected assistants in your dashboard, which ends its access at once, or remove the connector in VS Code.
Are there limits?
60 tool calls a minute and 2,000 a day per account, across all your connected assistants. Over a limit, the server says how many seconds to wait. All limits.
It does not connect. What now?
Check that the address is exactly https://nomad.watch/mcp, then remove the connector and add it again. If the approval page says the request expired, start again from VS Code. Still stuck? Tell us through the contact form, with the assistant you use.
