# Connect Claude Code to BCTRL MCP

> Add the BCTRL MCP server to Claude Code and Claude Desktop for hosted cloud-browser automation.

Connect Claude to the hosted BCTRL MCP server over Streamable HTTP.

## Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http bctrl https://api.bctrl.ai/mcp
```

Run `/mcp` in the REPL once to complete the browser device-approval flow. Claude handles the OAuth handshake natively — no bridge needed. The `bctrl_*` tools appear once approved.

## Claude Desktop and claude.ai

Open **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector**, name it `bctrl`, and enter the URL `https://api.bctrl.ai/mcp`. Approve access in the browser when prompted.

If the tools do not appear, see [Troubleshooting](/mcp/troubleshooting).
