Connect Claude Desktop

Prerequisites

• Claude Desktop installed (download)
• A Wicket member key — see the Quickstart if you don’t have one yet

Configuration

Open (or create) the Claude Desktop config file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add your Wicket server under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wicket": {
      "url": "https://mcp.wicket.sh/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <your-member-key>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

Tip

The single /mcp endpoint aggregates every connector your agent has enabled — tools appear with a service prefix, e.g. github__get_file_contents, slack__slack_send_message. If you belong to multiple agents, add one entry per member key, e.g. "wicket-eng", "wicket-support".

Verify

Open a new conversation and ask Claude to use a tool from your connected connector — for example:

List my GitHub repositories.

If Wicket is configured correctly, the tool call succeeds and appears in the agent’s Audit tab.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Likely cause
No MCP tools available	Config file not saved or Claude Desktop not restarted
401 Unauthorized	Wrong or expired member key — regenerate in Wicket
403 Forbidden	Agent is disabled, or member status is not approved
Tool call blocked	A policy is denying the request — check the Audit tab for the matched rule
