Claude Code

Connect Causely to Claude Code to run incident triage, service health checks, and reliability reports without leaving the terminal.

Prerequisites

• Active Causely account
• Claude Code installed

Configuration

Create or update .mcp.json at the root of your repository:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "causely": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.causely.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Config file location

Scope	Path
Project (repo-level)	.mcp.json at the repository root
User (all projects)	~/.claude/mcp.json

To register Causely at user scope without editing JSON directly, run:

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http causely https://api.causely.app/mcp

Restart

Claude Code reads .mcp.json at session start. After saving the file, begin a new Claude Code session (claude). Run /mcp inside Claude Code to confirm causely appears as a connected server.

Known Gotcha

Project .mcp.json is committed to source control and visible to all contributors. If you add static credentials via headers, use user-scope config (~/.claude/mcp.json) or the --scope user flag so secrets never land in the repository. See Advanced Authentication for credential setup.
