Claude Desktop

Connect SuperDocs to Claude Desktop so you can edit documents through conversation.

1. Find your config file

OSPath
macOS~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Create the file if it doesn’t exist.

2. Add the SuperDocs config

claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "superdocs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote@latest",
        "https://api.superdocs.app/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${SUPERDOCS_AUTH}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SUPERDOCS_AUTH": "Bearer sk_YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace sk_YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key.
Claude Desktop uses mcp-remote to bridge to the SuperDocs Streamable HTTP server. This requires Node.js installed on your machine.
If you already have other MCP servers configured, add the "superdocs" entry inside the existing "mcpServers" object.

3. Restart Claude Desktop

Close and reopen Claude Desktop. The SuperDocs tools will appear in the tools menu.

4. Test it

Type in Claude Desktop:
“Use the SuperDocs health tool to check if the API is running”
You should see a response confirming the API is healthy.

Example usage

“Create a new NDA document for a consulting engagement using SuperDocs”
“Search my SuperDocs session for any mentions of payment terms”
See Available Tools for the full list of what you can do.
