MCP / Claude Code
Add Done Bear to Claude Code
Run one `claude mcp add` command, then sign in with OAuth. Claude Code can capture and complete Done Bear tasks without leaving your terminal.
MCP server endpoint
https://mcp.donebear.com/mcpConnect Claude Code to Done Bear
- 1
Add the server with one command
Run `claude mcp add --transport http donebear https://mcp.donebear.com/mcp`. Add `--scope user` for every project.
- 2
Verify with /mcp and sign in
Reopen Claude Code and run `/mcp`. The first task request opens an OAuth sign-in.
Add the server (default local scope)
claude mcp add --transport http donebear https://mcp.donebear.com/mcpRegister for every project (user scope)
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user donebear https://mcp.donebear.com/mcpKnow before you connect
- The `--transport http` flag is required; without it, Claude Code assumes a stdio command and fails.
- Restart or reopen the session after adding the server so it picks up the new config.

Scoped to your workspace
The connector reaches Done Bear data, not other files on your machine.
Frequently asked questions
How do I verify Claude Code connected to Done Bear?
Run `/mcp` in a Claude Code session. If Done Bear is missing, rerun the add command and restart the session.
Where does Claude Code save the server, and what are scopes?
The default is the current project. Use `--scope user` for every project or `--scope project` for a shared `.mcp.json`.
