How do you add Lumenbase to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add --transport http lumenbase https://lumenbase.io/api/mcp, then type /mcp inside Claude Code and follow the sign-in in your browser. Claude Code stores the token and refreshes it for you.

Add the server

Add Lumenbase
claude mcp add --transport http lumenbase https://lumenbase.io/api/mcp
  1. Run the command

    In your project folder, run the command above. It adds Lumenbase for this project only.

  2. Sign in

    In Claude Code, type /mcp, pick lumenbase and follow the steps in your browser. From your shell, claude mcp login lumenbase does the same.

  3. Check it

    Ask: List my open deals. Do not change anything.

Choose where it is available

Add it for every project
claude mcp add --transport http lumenbase --scope user https://lumenbase.io/api/mcp

Local

The default. Only you, in the current project.

Project

Writes .mcp.json to the project, so teammates get it through version control. Each person still signs in as themselves.

User

Only you, in every project on this machine.

What to ask

  • Which of my deals have had no contact for two weeks? Draft a follow-up for the top three. Do not send.
  • Prepare me for my next meeting: who is coming, what we last discussed and what we promised.
  • Log this note on the Acme deal and create a task to send the proposal on Friday.
  • Which past clients have we not spoken to in six months?

Common questions

No. The server uses OAuth. Claude Code opens the sign-in in your browser and keeps the token for you.

Yes. Add it with --scope project to write .mcp.json to the repository. Claude Code asks each person before it uses a project server, and each person signs in with their own Lumenbase account.

Type /mcp, pick lumenbase and choose Clear authentication. You can also revoke the app in Lumenbase Settings.
