Install

The server runs from this checkout (not published to npm). Set a valid user JWT in the client config.

Claude Code (repo root)

.mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ciited": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/abs/path/to/ciited-frontend/scripts/mcp-bin.mjs"]
    }
  }
}

mcp-bin.mjs loads .env.local from the repo root, so you usually do not duplicate env vars in the MCP config. Override in the client env block only when you need a different token than .env.local.

Use an absolute path when configuring Claude Desktop or Cursor from another working directory.
