# Claude Code

> Connect Rippit to Claude Code from the terminal.

## Add the server

```sh theme={null}
claude mcp add --transport http rippit https://mcp.rippit.com/mcp
```

## Sign in

1. Launch `claude`.
2. Type `/mcp`.
3. Select **rippit**, then choose **Authenticate**.
4. Sign in to Rippit in the browser window that opens and approve the consent screen.

Run `/mcp` again to confirm Rippit shows as connected. On a remote machine (SSH or a cloud workspace), Claude Code prints a sign-in link instead of opening a browser; copy it into a browser on your own computer.

## Using it

Mention Rippit in your prompt so Claude Code picks the right tools:

```text theme={null}
Use Rippit to list my data sources.
```

Claude Code shares nothing with the Claude web and desktop apps: connectors added there don't appear here, and vice versa. If you want Rippit in both, set up each one. See [Claude Web / Desktop](/clients/claude/end-user).
