Claude Code

Prerequisites

Claude Code installed
A LightOn API key from the LightOn Console

Configuration

Run this command once to register the LightOn server globally; Claude Code will store your API key and send it as a Bearer token on every request.

claude mcp add lighton https://api.lighton.ai/mcp \
  --transport http --scope user \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $LIGHTON_API_KEY"

$LIGHTON_API_KEY is interpolated by your shell when you run the command and the value is stored in Claude Code’s config. Make sure it is set, you can grab your key from the LightOn Console. Omit --scope user to register the server for the current project only.

Verification

Confirm the server is registered:
claude mcp list
Use the /mcp command inside a Claude Code session to view available tools and server status.

Test the connection with a prompt like:

Search my LightOn workspaces for documents about [topic]

You’re all set. From any Claude Code session you can now ask Claude to search or ingest documents in your LightOn workspaces directly.
