Add to your Claude Desktop config:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %AppData%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coda": {
      "command": "/path/to/uvx",
      "args": ["coda-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CODA_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Find your uvx path with which uvx (typically ~/.local/bin/uvx or /usr/local/bin/uvx).

Restart Claude Desktop after saving.

Quick install via CLI:

claude mcp add --env CODA_API_TOKEN=your-token-here coda -- uvx coda-mcp

Or manual configuration - add to ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coda": {
      "command": "/path/to/uvx",
      "args": ["coda-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CODA_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Team-shared config - add .mcp.json to your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coda": {
      "command": "/path/to/uvx",
      "args": ["coda-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CODA_API_TOKEN": "${CODA_API_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then team members only need to set CODA_API_TOKEN in their environment.

Add to your Cursor MCP config (~/.cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json in project root):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coda": {
      "command": "/path/to/uvx",
      "args": ["coda-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CODA_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Find your uvx path with which uvx.

Add to your Zed settings (~/.config/zed/settings.json):

{
  "context_servers": {
    "coda": {
      "command": {
        "path": "/path/to/uvx",
        "args": ["coda-mcp"],
        "env": {
          "CODA_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

For any MCP-compatible client, configure:

• Transport: stdio
• Command: uvx coda-mcp
• Environment: CODA_API_TOKEN=your-token-here

Or if you prefer pip installation:

pip install coda-mcp
coda-mcp  # runs the server
