Connect Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor

Configure a private MCP connection for coding and editor clients.

Connect Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor

Coding clients usually use a private MCP configuration backed by a dedicated Signaliz API key.

  1. Open Settings → Connect → API keys and create one key for the client.

  2. Open Settings → Connect → MCP setup and select Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.

  3. Copy the exact command or JSON block shown for that client.

  4. Add it to the client using its MCP settings.

  5. Restart or reload the client if requested.

  6. List the server tools and run a dry-run test.

The keyed endpoint has this shape:

https://api.signaliz.com/functions/v1/signaliz-mcp?api_key=YOUR_SIGNALIZ_API_KEY

Store configuration files containing this URL with secret-safe permissions and never commit them. Use a different key for CI, a teammate, and each desktop client so you can audit and rotate them independently.

When handing a durable task between agent turns, preserve its run ID, job ID, and idempotency key in the task state. Repeating the original prompt is not a recovery strategy.
