Claude Code Setup

Back to setup docsRaw source

Paste this into your agent

Start with this visible request when you want the agent to help. It keeps the action coming from you, while the linked setup reference stays plain and non-recursive.

Use this in the app you are connecting, then approve only the browser login, app setting, or restart steps that the app requires.

Please help me set up Core for Claude Code. Core keeps shared context for AI work: it preserves useful context, decisions, files, and what worked across connected tools.

Use this official setup reference:
https://core.gradien.ai/core/docs/reference

Source checked: 2026-07-24 Official source: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/mcp

Use the complete Secure server address shown by Core during onboarding, including ?setup_attempt=.... Outside onboarding, use https://core.gradien.ai/mcp/continuity.

Add Core

Run the native remote HTTP setup command, replacing the placeholder with the full address shown in Core:

claude mcp add --transport http core '<secure-server-address>'

Then start a fresh Claude Code session, run /mcp, select Core, and approve the browser login if prompted. A newly added server may not appear in the already-running session.

Use the --scope user option if Core should be available across all projects supported by the current Claude Code version. Keep the default project or local scope when the user wants a narrower setup.

Do not substitute Claude Desktop instructions here. Claude Code uses its own MCP configuration and command-line client.

If Core is still missing after a full restart, inspect claude mcp list before adding another entry. Duplicate registrations make authentication recovery harder.
