Claude Code

Claude Code connects over HTTP with a header, so no bridge and no Node.js setup is needed. It is the shortest of the three.

Add the server

Open a terminal on the machine where Claude Code is installed and run:

claude mcp add aov-upsell-your-store \
  --transport http https://upsell.avada.io/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer aov_mcp_YOUR_KEY"

Replace aov-upsell-your-store and aov_mcp_YOUR_KEY with the values from the app — the snippet generated in Settings → Connect to AI already has both filled in, so copying it is safer than typing this by hand.

Restart Claude Code afterwards.

The command puts the key in your shell history. If that matters on this machine, clear the entry afterwards, or paste the app's snippet into your terminal rather than typing it.

Check it worked

Run /mcp inside Claude Code. You should see aov-upsell-your-store listed as connected, with 10 tools.

Then ask something only your store can answer:

What free gift campaigns am I running?

If the server is listed but the question comes back with a refusal, the address is right and the key is not — see Troubleshooting.

Scope

By default the server is added for the current project. To use it from any directory, add --scope user:

claude mcp add aov-upsell-your-store --scope user \
  --transport http https://upsell.avada.io/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer aov_mcp_YOUR_KEY"

A project-scoped entry lives in that project's config, which is often a file under version control. User scope keeps the key out of it.

Remove or replace

claude mcp remove aov-upsell-your-store

Then add it again with the new address or key. Editing the entry in place can leave the old credential attached.
