Authentication

Tractive does not provide any OAuth mechanisms. As a result, email and passwords have to be stored locally. Run the auth command to save your Tractive credentials:

uvx tractive-mcp auth

Credentials are stored at ~/.config/tractive-mcp/credentials.json with 0600 permissions.

claude mcp add tractive -- uvx tractive-mcp

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

  "mcpServers": {
    "tractive": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["tractive-mcp"]
