# Claude Code

Source: /docs/mcp/connect/claude-code

Add OrbitOrca to Claude Code for your user account — it becomes available across all your local projects.

### Get a token [#get-a-token]

Open the dashboard's [Connect an agent](https://app.orbitorca.com/mcp) page and create a token. Read-only is the default; add write only if you want the agent to deploy and change apps. The full token is shown **once**, at creation — copy it now.

### Add the server [#add-the-server]

Run this in your terminal, with your token in place of `{{token}}`:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http orbitorca https://api.orbitorca.com/mcp --scope user --header "Authorization: Bearer {{token}}"
```

### Try it [#try-it]

In Claude Code, ask it to &#x2A;"list my OrbitOrca apps"*. If it comes back with your apps, you're connected.

The dashboard's [Connect an agent](https://app.orbitorca.com/mcp) page generates this exact command with your token already filled in — copy it from there if you'd rather not edit by hand.
