Claude

Claude supports MCP servers as custom connectors across the web app, desktop app, and CLI. All of them connect to the same Model Match server URL and authenticate with your Model Match account via OAuth — no API keys or config files required for the apps.

Claude Code

Add the server with the CLI:

claude mcp add modelmatch --type http --url https://mcp.modelmatch.com/mcp

Or add it to your project's .mcp.json file so your whole team gets it automatically:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "modelmatch": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.modelmatch.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

When you first use a Model Match tool, you'll be prompted to authenticate via OAuth. Your existing permissions and workspace access apply to every tool call.
