Connect Revised to Claude.ai and Claude Desktop
Connect the Revised MCP server to Claude on the web or in the desktop app as a custom connector, or with an API key through a local bridge.
The endpoint is https://getrevised.com/api/mcp.
Custom connector (recommended)
The same connector serves claude.ai and the desktop app: add it once and it appears in both. Where custom connectors are available depends on your Claude plan; if Add custom connector is missing, check your plan, or on a Team or Enterprise plan ask an owner to enable it.
Open the connector settings
In claude.ai or the desktop app, open Settings → Connectors.
Add a custom connector
Choose Add custom connector, name it
Revisedand pastehttps://getrevised.com/api/mcp. Leave the advanced OAuth fields empty: no header, no client id, no key.Sign in
Connect opens a browser tab on the Revised sign-in. Sign in and accept the consent screen. Claude stores the token and refreshes it on its own.
Verify
In a new chat, enable the connector from the tools menu and ask: “What plan am I on with Revised?” Claude should call
whoamiand report the plan, your reveal position and the rate limit.
API key, through a local bridge
A custom connector is OAuth only, and claude_desktop_config.json launches local processes rather than connecting to a URL. To use a key (CI, a machine where you cannot sign in), run the mcp-remote bridge, which connects to the URL and adds the header. It needs Node.js for npx.
Create a key at getrevised.com/account, then edit the desktop app’s configuration file:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"revised": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://getrevised.com/api/mcp",
"--header",
"Authorization:${REVISED_AUTH}"
],
"env": {
"REVISED_AUTH": "Bearer rvd_yourprefix_yoursecret"
}
}
}
}Restart the app after saving. The header value goes through an environment variable because the bridge mishandles a space inside an argument on Windows.
Notes
- Seventeen tools are exposed.
reveal_domainspends a reveal andrun_deep_checkspends credits; nothing else spends, and a reveal grant is permanent; see Tools. - The reveal position and the hold cap are the account’s, not the connector’s. An assistant is bound by exactly the same limits you are.
- Holds are account-scoped: a hold taken through this connector is visible to, and releasable from, every other key and session on the account.
- Claude Code has its own page, with a one-line command: Claude Code.
