Setup Instructions

Installing via Smithery

To install Descope MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @descope-sample-apps/descope-mcp-server --client claude

Manual Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/descope-sample-apps/descope-mcp-server.git
cd descope-mcp-server

Install the necessary dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Build the project:

npm run build
```

Configuration

1. Configure Claude Desktop to recognize the Descope MCP server

To locate the claude_desktop_config.json file, open the Claude Desktop app and enable Developer Mode from the top-left menu bar.

Once enabled, go to Settings (also in the top-left menu), navigate to the Developer section, and click the Edit Config button to access and edit claude_desktop_config.json.

Alternatively, to open the configuration file via terminal:

On macOS:

code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

On Windows:

code %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the Descope server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "descope": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/descope-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "DESCOPE_PROJECT_ID": "your-descope-project-id-here",
        "DESCOPE_MANAGEMENT_KEY": "your-descope-management-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace your-descope-project-id-here and your-descope-management-key-here with your actual Descope Project ID and Management Key from app.descope.com/settings/project and app.descope.com/settings/company/managementkeys.
