## Quick Start

### Claude (Web — Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise)

**⚡ Quick Connect:** Use this [Add to Claude](https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Fodda&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.fodda.ai%2Fmcp%3Fapi_key%3DYOUR_API_KEY%26user_id%3DYOUR_EMAIL) quick link (replace `YOUR_API_KEY` and `YOUR_EMAIL` in the URL before pressing enter).

**Manual Setup:**
1. In Claude, go to **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector**
2. Enter URL: `https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp?api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&user_id=YOUR_EMAIL`
3. Under **Advanced settings** — leave OAuth Client ID and Secret **blank** (Fodda uses API key auth, not OAuth)
4. Click **Add** — then start chatting with your Fodda knowledge graphs

> Get your API key at [app.fodda.ai](https://app.fodda.ai) → Account → MCP Integration.  
> Your API key starts with `fk_live_...`  
> Use the email address associated with your Fodda account for `user_id`.

### Claude Code (CLI — SSE)

```bash
claude mcp add --transport sse fodda https://mcp.fodda.ai/sse \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
```

### Claude Enterprise

For Claude Enterprise with admin-managed connectors, your workspace admin can register the Fodda MCP server using the same Streamable HTTP endpoint (`https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp`) via the Admin Console. See [Enterprise MCP Setup](./Enterprise_MCP_Setup.md) for full details.

### OpenAI Frontier or Streamable HTTP Client
Connect to the `/mcp` endpoint using HTTP `GET` to establish a stream and `POST` to execute:
```bash
https://mcp.fodda.ai/mcp
```

### Gemini CLI

```json
{
  "tools": [{
    "type": "mcp",
    "name": "fodda",
    "url": "https://mcp.fodda.ai/sse",
    "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
  }]
}
```

### Generic SSE Client

Connect to `https://mcp.fodda.ai/sse` with an `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY` header.
