# MCP server

> Give an assistant access to your prompts

Anpord runs a hosted MCP server, so an assistant such as Claude can read and
publish your prompts directly.

## Connect

<CodeGroup>
  ```json Claude Desktop theme={null}
  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "anpord": {
        "url": "https://mcp.anpord.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
  ```

  ```bash Claude Code theme={null}
  claude mcp add --transport http anpord https://mcp.anpord.com/mcp
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Authentication

The server implements OAuth 2.1, so you never paste an API key into a client.
Connecting opens a browser, you sign in and approve access, and the client stores
the token it receives.

The assistant then acts as you: it reaches the prompts your account can reach and
nothing else. An anonymous request is refused.

## Tools

| Tool             | Purpose                                            |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `list_prompts`   | Every prompt in the organization                   |
| `get_prompt`     | Resolve a prompt, optionally by channel or version |
| `list_versions`  | A prompt's history                                 |
| `update_prompt`  | Append a version                                   |
| `promote_prompt` | Point a channel at a version                       |

<Note>
  Creating and archiving prompts are deliberately absent. An assistant can write
  a new version and promote one, but the set of prompts stays under your control.
</Note>

## What it is for

The server is most useful when the assistant is already editing the code that
sends the prompt. It can read the live version, see how it has changed, propose a
rewrite, and publish it without leaving the conversation.

Because publishing appends a version rather than overwriting one, a change an
assistant makes is reviewable and reversible. It does not reach your users until
someone promotes it.
