Quick Start

Claude (Web — Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise)

⚡ Quick Connect: Use this Add to Claude quick link (replace YOUR_API_KEY and YOUR_EMAIL in the URL before pressing enter).

Manual Setup:

1. In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
2. Enter URL: https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user_id=YOUR_EMAIL
3. Under Advanced settings — leave OAuth Client ID and Secret blank (Fodda uses API key auth, not OAuth)
4. Click Add — then start chatting with your Fodda knowledge graphs

Get your API key at app.fodda.ai → Account → MCP Integration.
Your API key starts with fk_live_...
Use the email address associated with your Fodda account for user_id.

Claude Code (CLI — SSE)

claude mcp add --transport sse fodda https://mcp.fodda.ai/sse \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Claude Enterprise

For Claude Enterprise with admin-managed connectors, your workspace admin can register the Fodda MCP server using the same Streamable HTTP endpoint (https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp) via the Admin Console. See Enterprise MCP Setup for full details.

OpenAI Frontier or Streamable HTTP Client

Connect to the /mcp endpoint using HTTP GET to establish a stream and POST to execute:

https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp

Gemini CLI

    "name": "fodda",
    "url": "https://mcp.fodda.ai/sse",
    "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
  }]
