Plugin Features

MCP Connection

Auto-connects to the local npx server — no setup needed

The MCP connection view shows the connection status to the local connector process. When the plugin is open and the connector is running (started automatically by Claude Desktop), the status indicator turns green. Setup holds copy-ready config for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and other MCP clients, and Logs shows incoming messages for debugging; both stay folded until you open them.

  1. Open the plugin; it starts on the MCP connection view.
  2. The plugin connects automatically to ws://localhost:3579.
  3. The status indicator turns green when connected.
  4. Open Setup, pick your AI tool and copy its config.
  5. Toggle the connection switch to manually disconnect or reconnect.

Tips

  • The connector runs locally — no account or API key is required.
  • If the status shows disconnected, make sure Claude Desktop (or your AI tool) has launched the connector.
  • Logs is useful for debugging — it shows every message the plugin receives.
