Claude Code

Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic terminal CLI. MCP servers are configured via claude mcp add or directly in ~/.claude.json. OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration works out of the box.

Setup

In your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http inboxmcp https://mcp.inboxmcp.io/mcp

Then in a Claude Code session:

/mcp

Follow the browser link, sign in to inboxmcp and confirm access. The token is stored securely in your keychain and refreshed automatically.

Scopes

claude mcp add registers the connection in the local scope by default — only the current project sees the server, written to ~/.claude.json. With --scope user it lands in the global config and is available in every project:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user inboxmcp https://mcp.inboxmcp.io/mcp

Check status / remove

claude mcp list # show all servers
claude mcp get inboxmcp # details
claude mcp remove inboxmcp

Inside a session: /mcp shows the connection status and "Clear authentication" revokes the stored token.
