Conduit MCP Server

Local setup required. This server has to be cloned and prepared on your machine before you register it in Claude Code.
1

Set the server up locally

Run this once to clone and prepare the server before adding it to Claude Code.

Run in terminal
git clone https://github.com/advenimus/conduit-desktop
cd conduit-desktop

Then follow the repository README for any remaining dependency or build steps before continuing.

2

Register it in Claude Code

After the local setup is done, run this command to point Claude Code at the built server.

Run in terminal
claude mcp add conduit-desktop -- node "<FULL_PATH_TO_CONDUIT_DESKTOP>/dist/index.js"

Replace <FULL_PATH_TO_CONDUIT_DESKTOP>/dist/index.js with the actual folder you prepared in step 1.
