The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server provides a standardized interface that allows any compatible AI model or agent to access your Scribe data in a simple and secure way. Search documents, explore business workflows, and surface optimization insights — all from your AI assistant.

Authentication is handled automatically via OAuth 2.0. No API keys or tokens to manage.

Prerequisites

• A Scribe account
• An MCP-compatible AI client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, custom AI client)

The server is hosted by Scribe. You do not need to install or run anything.

Setup

Add the Scribe MCP server to your AI client's configuration. On first connection, your browser will open so you can sign in to Scribe and authorize access.

Claude Code

Run the following command:

claude mcp add --transport http scribe <https://mcp.scribe.com/mcp>

Or add it manually to ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scribe": {
      "url": "<https://mcp.scribe.com/mcp>"
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

1. Open Claude Desktop → Customize (sidebar) → Connectors → Settings → Developer Settings → Edit Config
2. Open the config file:
   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
3. Add the following to the file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scribe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "<https://mcp.scribe.com/mcp>"]
    }
  }
}
