# Claude Desktop

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

## 1. Find your config file

| OS      | Path                                                              |
| ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 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

```json claude_desktop_config.json theme={null}
{
  "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.

<Note>
  Claude Desktop uses `mcp-remote` to bridge to the SuperDocs Streamable HTTP server. This requires Node.js installed on your machine.
</Note>

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](/mcp/available-tools) for the full list of what you can do.
