Claude¶

Claude (web, Desktop, and mobile) connects via the connector sign-in — no key to manage.

Add the connector¶

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
Enter the URL:
```
https://mcp.thecoindaily.co/mcp
```
Claude sends you to the Coin Daily sign-in page to create a free account or log in. Approve access.
The Coin Daily tools are now available in your conversations. Ask, e.g., "What's The Coin Daily's read on the market right now?"

That's it — Claude handles the token and refreshes it for you.

Claude Desktop with a direct API key (optional)¶

If you'd rather use a static API key (e.g. a shared/dev machine), add the server to claude_desktop_config.json:

OS	Path
macOS	`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
Windows	`%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
Linux	`~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "the-coin-daily": {
      "url": "https://mcp.thecoindaily.co/mcp/",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with a key from Authentication → API keys. The trailing slash on the URL is required. Restart Claude Desktop after editing.
