MCP support
The server exposes tools to list, create, inspect, and control monitoring sources, and to search changes. It supports local use and a remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; an API token is required.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
npx -y changeflow-mcp-serverCHANGEFLOW_API_TOKENSecretYour Changeflow API token from https://changeflow.com/account/apiLocal 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.
