Get your API key.

Pick Pro or higher. The MCP server is a Pro feature and there is no trial, so the first invoice charges when you subscribe. The free tier is available first if you want the REST API without a card, though it does not include MCP. Your key appears in the dashboard the moment you finish signup.

Subscribe to Pro.

Paste this into your MCP config.

Save the block below to Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json (or your MCP client's equivalent), then swap intelligence_your_key_here for your real key. The mcp-remote bridge needs Node 18 or newer.
