Prerequisites
Option A — Use the hosted server (recommended)
No local setup needed. Pass your Explee API key as a Bearer token when registering the server.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http explee https://your-deployed-url.com/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_EXPLEE_API_KEY"Or add manually to .mcp.json at your project root:
{
"mcpServers": {
"explee": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://your-deployed-url.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_EXPLEE_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}Codex CLI
Codex reads the token from an environment variable rather than embedding it in the command:
export EXPLEE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
codex mcp add explee --url https://your-deployed-url.com/mcp \
--bearer-token-env-var EXPLEE_API_KEYOr add manually to ~/.codex/config.toml (global) or .codex/config.toml (project):
[mcp_servers.explee]
url = "https://your-deployed-url.com/mcp"
bearer_token_env_var = "EXPLEE_API_KEY"Option B — Run locally

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http explee http://localhost:3000/mcpNo --header needed — the server reads EXPLEE_API_KEY from its own .env.
Or manually in .mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"explee": {
"type": "http",
"url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp"
}
}
}Codex CLI
codex mcp add explee --url http://localhost:3000/mcpOr manually in .codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.explee]
