mcp

Connect Claude Code

Claude Code adds MCP servers from the command line. One command wires Zaai Dev in.

Add the server

Replace zaai_mcp_YOUR_SECRET_HERE with your token (how to mint one), then run:

terminal
claude mcp add zaai-dev -e ZAAI_API_TOKEN=zaai_mcp_YOUR_SECRET_HERE -- npx -y @zaai-dev/mcp

Verify

  1. 1
    Run claude mcp list — zaai-dev should appear.
  2. 2
    In a Claude Code session, ask: “Use the zaai-dev tools to run whoami.” A successful call returns your user, org, and credit balance.
  3. 3
    Then try “list my captures” or “pull the brand brief for this project.”

Fully quit and reopen Claude Code so it re-reads its MCP config. If calls return Unauthorized, confirm you minted an mcp token (not ext or api). More in MCP troubleshooting.
