{
  "mcpServers": {
    "explorium": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.explorium.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

  "mcpServers": {
    "explorium": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.explorium.ai/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

See Gemini CLI Configuration for details.

Open the Gemini CLI settings file. The location is ~/.gemini/settings.json (where ~ is your home directory).
Add the following to the mcpServers object in your settings.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "explorium": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.explorium.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or, for a local server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "explorium": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.explorium.ai/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

If the mcpServers object does not exist, create it.

See JetBrains AI Assistant Documentation for more details.

In JetBrains IDEs go to Settings -> Tools -> AI Assistant -> Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Click + Add.

    }
  }
}

API Key Requirements

Important: Different connection methods have different authentication requirements:

✅ Claude Desktop Extension - No API key required
✅ MCP Remote Connections (Streamable HTTP/SSE/STDIO) - No API key required
🔑 Docker Self-Hosting - Requires API key

Getting Your API Key

For Docker deployment, you'll need an API access token. Get yours at: https://admin.explorium.ai/api-key

Docker Deployment

This repository includes Docker configuration for self-hosting:

# Build the Docker image
docker build -t explorium-mcp .

# Run the container with API access token
docker run -e API_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_explorium_access_token explorium-mcp

Required Environment Variables:

API_ACCESS_TOKEN - Your Explorium API access token for authentication (get it here)

You can also use a .env file or docker-compose for easier management:

# docker-compose.yml
version: '3.8'
services:
  explorium-mcp:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "44280:44280"
    environment:
      - API_ACCESS_TOKEN=${API_ACCESS_TOKEN}

Available Tools

Once connected, your AI tool will have access to tools for:

Business Matching: Find companies by name, domain, or business ID
Business Enrichment: Get detailed firmographics, technographics, and business intelligence
Business Events: Track funding rounds, office changes, hiring trends, and company developments
Prospect Discovery: Search for professionals and contacts within companies
Prospect Enrichment: Access contact information, work history, and professional profiles
Prospect Events: Track role changes, company moves, and career milestones

Troubleshooting Connection Issues

If you're experiencing issues connecting your AI tool to Explorium MCP:

Check MCP Client Support
Verify that your AI tool supports MCP clients and can connect to MCP servers. Not all AI tools have this capability built-in yet.
Verify Remote Server Support
Some AI tools have MCP clients but don't support remote connections. If this is the case, you may still be able to connect using our Docker configuration or local server setup.
Request MCP Support
If your AI tool doesn't support MCP at all, we recommend reaching out to the tool's developers to request MCP server connection support.

Configuration Files

This repository contains:

package.json - Node.js dependencies and scripts
manifest.json - Extension metadata and configuration
Dockerfile - Container configuration for self-hosting
server/index.js - Placeholder file (does not contain actual MCP implementation)
entrypoint.sh - Docker container entry point

Important Note: The server/index.js file in this repository is just a placeholder and does not contain the actual MCP server implementation. To use Explorium MCP, you need to connect to the remote server at https://mcp.explorium.ai/mcp using mcp-remote or through the connection methods described above. The actual MCP server is hosted by Explorium and accessible via the remote URLs.
