Setup guides

Connect data & code

Plug in the systems Kai needs to do real work: your databases and code repositories. Kaiday also has its own calendar, messaging, documents, and social posting. Add external meeting links to calendar events.

Kaiday is the workspace, not a glue layer
Kaiday has native calendar, messaging, and documents. Video meetings use an external link such as Google Meet. The connectors below cover your existing customer database and your existing code repositories.

Databases (Connections)

Kaiday talks to Postgres, MySQL, and MongoDB. Each connection is annotated with what's inside, so Kai picks the right one when it answers a question or runs a tool.

★ Adding a Postgres connection: paste host/port/creds, write a one-sentence description of what's inside, Test, green check.
  1. 1
    Open Connections
    Sidebar → Connections → Add connection.
  2. 2
    Pick the engine
    Postgres, MySQL, or MongoDB. Each has its own form.
  3. 3
    Paste credentials
    Host, port, database name, username, password. Your username and password are stored encrypted. They are never shown back to you or to anyone else after you save them.
  4. 4
    Describe what's inside
    One sentence per major table or collection. This is what Kai reads to decide whether to query this connection.
  5. 5
    Test the connection
    Kaiday runs a no-op query. If it fails you see the exact error, not a generic one.
Read-only by default
Connections are read access only. Writes require an explicit per-connection toggle.

Code repositories

Connect repos so Kai can inspect code, answer technical questions, and open draft PRs.

  1. 1
    Open Code
    Sidebar → Code → Connect repo.
  2. 2
    Authorize GitHub
    OAuth flow. Pick which repos to grant access to.
  3. 3
    Confirm permissions
    Read access is the default. PR creation is opt-in per repo.
Drafts only, never main
Kai opens PRs from non-main branches and never force-pushes. Every PR is reviewed by you before merge.

What you do not need to connect

These all live inside Kaiday natively. Don't go looking for an integration setting. There isn't one, by design:

  • Calendar. Kaiday has its own calendar. Create events with Kai directly.
  • Video meetings. Add an external Google Meet link and record with the Kaiday Chrome extension.
  • Messaging. Kaiday Messaging replaces Slack-style internal chat.
  • Documents. Documents, sheets, and decks live in the Knowledge Base. Kai can create and edit them.
  • Email. Kaiday Email replaces your inbox. Mint addresses on any domain you've verified.
