Walk a developer through connecting a fresh MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Goose v2, Aider, Continue.dev, n8n, or a raw @modelcontextprotocol/sdk client) to the INITE Brain service. Covers obtaining an API key, the per-tenant URL shape, config snippets per client, the scope matrix for the full tool surface (up to 32 built-in tools + 2 resources), and the smoke test. Use when the user says "add brain MCP", "connect brain to Claude", "set up brain for Cursor", or names any MCP-capable client.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# brain-mcp-setup
INITE Brain ships a Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at `/mcp`. The API key names its tenant; `/mcp/<companyId>` is the same endpoint pinned to one tenant. This skill walks the user from zero to "tools visible in Claude".
## What the user needs
1. A **brain API key** for their company (format `brain_<base64>`).
2. The **MCP URL**: `https://brain.inite.ai/mcp` (or `https://brain.inite.ai/mcp/<companyId>`, which brain refuses when the companyId is not the key's — useful when one config serves several tenants).
3. One of: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Goose v2, Aider, Continue.dev, n8n, or a raw `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` client.
If they don't have a key yet, point them to `https://brain.inite.ai/en/app/keys` and pause. Brain refuses unsigned MCP calls — there's no anonymous mode.
## Claude Desktop
Edit `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) or `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"brain": {
"url": "https://brain.inite.ai/mcp",
"transport": "http",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer <api-key>"
}
}
}
}
```

How to install
mdr add inite-ai/inite-brain-service/brain-mcp-setup@sha256:b10e9f0aeab5ea1aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.60e41ae, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
