Claude Desktop configuration
Edit claude_desktop_config.json to add the following configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"kusto": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"{{PATH_TO_PROJECT}}\\mcp-server-kusto\\src\\mcp_server_kusto",
"run",
"mcp-server-kusto",
"--cluster",
"{{ADX_CLUSTER_URL}}",
"--authority_id",
"{{TENANT_ID}}",
"--client_id",
"{{CLIENT_ID}}",
"--client_secret",
"{{CLIENT_SECRET}}"
]
}
}
}
When using azure data explorer emulator locally, provide the cluster url like https://localhost:8082 and not need to
provide --authority_id, --client_id, --client_secret.

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.
