Claude Code

The fastest way to connect SuperDocs to Claude Code is the official plugin — it bundles the MCP server (21 tools), the 4 workflow prompts, and the auto-loading skill in one install. Manual MCP config also works as a fallback. In a Claude Code session, run:
claude plugin install superdocsapp/superdocs-plugin
You’ll be prompted for your SuperDocs API key (sk_…). It’s stored securely in your OS keychain — never in plaintext config. Get a key from use.superdocs.appSettings → API Keys → Create. Free plan includes 500 AI operations per month. After install:
  • All 21 MCP tools are available
  • 4 workflow prompts appear in your / slash menu (/superdocs:draft_from_outline, /superdocs:edit_styled_docx, /superdocs:convert_format, /superdocs:review_contract_for_redflags)
  • The SuperDocs skill auto-loads when you ask document-editing questions
For full plugin reference (auto-update behavior, troubleshooting, advanced config), see /mcp/plugin.

Manual setup (advanced)

If you prefer to configure the MCP server directly without the plugin (e.g., to share a .mcp.json across a team via project scope), run:
claude mcp add --transport http superdocs https://api.superdocs.app/mcp/ \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY"
Note the trailing slash on /mcp/ — clients without slash get a 307 redirect. That installs only the MCP server (21 tools). To get the 4 prompts and the skill, you’d need to set those up separately — the plugin install above does all three in one shot.

Verify the connection

claude mcp list
You should see:
superdocs: https://api.superdocs.app/mcp (HTTP) - ✓
If you see ✗ Failed to connect, restart Claude Code (Ctrl+C then claude in a new shell). MCP servers load at session startup, so a fresh session is required after claude mcp add.

Test it

claude
# Then type: "Use the SuperDocs health tool to check the API"

Example usage

Once connected, you can ask Claude Code to:
  • “Create a technical specification document using SuperDocs”
  • “Edit my SuperDocs session and update the introduction”
  • “Upload this file as an attachment to my SuperDocs session”

Remove the server
