README
An MCP server for interacting with Magnet (magnet.run)
Note: Currently macOS only. Windows and Linux support coming soon.
Setup
To set it up:
Generate an API key for your Workspace (Organization) at https://www.magnet.run/settings or from the Settings -> MCP section of the Desktop app.
Set up your MCP server configuration:
For Cursor or Claude Desktop (add to your MCP settings JSON):
{
"Magnet": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@magnet-ai/magnet-mcp-server"
],
"env": {
"MAGNET_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
For Claude Code (run this command):
claude mcp add --transport stdio Magnet --env MAGNET_API_KEY=your-api-key-here -- npx -y @magnet-ai/magnet-mcp-server
💡 TIP:
If you are seeing issues getting your MCP server configuration working, consider that it might be an issue with the node / npx version, and try to put a full path to the npx you would like to use in the "command" field.
