Claude Code

Claude Code connects directly to the hosted PrompTessor server over HTTP. OAuth is discovered automatically, and the resulting credentials are stored by Claude Code.

Choose local, project, or user scope. Local and user configuration is stored in ~/.claude.json while project scope creates .mcp.json in the repository.

    Open Claude Code

    Start or restart Claude Code, enter /mcp, and select PrompTessor from the server list.
