Claude Desktop

Two ways to add MerchantGuard MCP tools to Claude Desktop: the Connectors UI (easiest) or the config file (full control).

Option A: Connectors UI

  • Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors → Add custom MCP server.
  • Paste the MerchantGuard MCP URL: https://merchantguard-mcp-810654658669.us-central1.run.app
  • Save. Restart Claude Desktop.
  • Confirm tools appear in the slash-command picker.

Option B: Config file

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "merchantguard": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://merchantguard-mcp-810654658669.us-central1.run.app"
      ]
    }
  }
}
