MCP support
The server exposes Clypt link-management tools to MCP clients such as Claude Desktop and Cursor. It runs locally through npx and requires a Clypt API key.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
npx -y clypt-mcpCLYPT_API_KEYSecretYour Clypt API key from clypt.io/dashboard/settingsLocal servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

New to MCP?
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.
