Configuring MCP Server

  1. Open Claude Desktop

  2. Navigate to Settings > Developer > Edit Config (claude-desktop-config.json)

The claude-desktop-config.json will automatically be created when you navigate to the Settings.

  1. Edit the configuration file with the following structure:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aixbt_mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@aixbt/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "API_KEY": "[your-api-key-here]"
      }
    }
  }
}
  1. Replace [your-api-key-here] with your actual AIXBT API key which you can find here.

  2. Save the changes on your mcp-config.json, and restart Claude Desktop.

  3. Once you restart, you should be able to see the AIXBT MCP available on the dropdown here:

  1. Verify the MCP server setup by checking for successful connection logs or messages within Claude Desktop. Ask a question to verify that the connection works.
