Claude Code Setup with MemoAir
Install MemoAir into Claude Code using Claude's native MCP CLI flow. MemoAir wraps the command so you can paste one line from the dashboard and get a working local MCP setup quickly.
Why this flow is different
Claude Code already has a native `claude mcp add` workflow for HTTP MCP servers.
MemoAir generates the exact install command so you don’t need to remember the MCP flags or headers.
This keeps Claude Code setup local and CLI-native instead of trying to force a browser-only install.
Setup
Four quick steps.
Get your MemoAir credentials
Open dashboard.memoair.space and copy your MCP URL, project API key, and user ID.
Run the MemoAir install command
Run this on the same machine where Claude Code is installed:
1npx -p memoair-mcp memoair-connect claude-code --mcp-url "https://mcp-server.memoair.space/mcp" --project-api-key "memoair_pk_your_project_key" --user-id "your-user-id" --scope local`--scope local` is the recommended default for a single project checkout.
Verify MemoAir is registered
Claude Code can list configured MCP servers directly:
1claude mcp listConfirm that memoair appears in the list.
Optional: enable repo memory workflow
If you also want the local memoair.md guide and repo setup used in coding workflows, run:
1npx -p memoair-mcp memoair-initScope guidance
Local
Best default. Keeps MemoAir available for you in the current project only.
Project
Use when you want a shared `.mcp.json` in the repo for teammates.
User
Use when you want MemoAir available across all projects on your machine.
Troubleshooting
The `claude` command is missing
Install Claude Code first and make sure the `claude` binary is available on your PATH, then rerun the MemoAir command.
MemoAir does not appear in `claude mcp list`
Rerun the generated install command and verify the MCP URL, project API key, and user ID are correct.
Project-scoped approval got stuck
Claude Code supports `claude mcp reset-project-choices` if you need to reset project MCP approval decisions.
