In a terminal, run: claude mcp add --transport http promptpal https://mcp.promptpal.app. Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick promptpal and choose Authenticate, then Allow in the PromptPal window. In VS Code with Copilot, add PromptPal to .vscode/mcp.json and click Start. Connecting needs a PromptPal Starter or Pro plan.

FAQs

Do I need to connect Claude Code if I already connected Claude.ai?

Claude Code can use connectors you've added on claude.ai when you're signed in with the same account. Adding PromptPal with the command above gives Claude Code its own connection, which also works in the terminal.

Does it need a paid plan?

Yes. Connecting AI apps to PromptPal is part of the Starter and Pro plans.

Where do I see or remove the connection?

Open Connect in your PromptPal dashboard. Claude Code and VS Code appear on the Claude Code / VS Code card, with a Disconnect button.
