Local (stdio)
Get a key at https://apexapi.dev/keys, then add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"apexapi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "apexapi-mcp"],
"env": { "APEXAPI_API_KEY": "ak-..." }
}
}

Claude Code: claude mcp add apexapi -e APEXAPI_API_KEY=ak-... -- npx -y apexapi-mcp
Remote (Streamable HTTP)
Endpoint: https://api.apexapi.dev/mcp with header Authorization: Bearer ak-...
Responses use MCP Streamable HTTP framing (SSE) — clients like Claude Code handle this natively; it is not a plain-JSON REST endpoint.
Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http apexapi https://api.apexapi.dev/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer ak-..."

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
