Connect Picasi with Claude Code

What this is about

You set up Picasi as an MCP server in Claude Code. After that, you can ask for updates on your competitors, manage sources, or retrieve reports directly in the Claude chat—without opening the Picasi app.

What you need

  • A Picasi API token (Instructions: Create API token)
  • Your workspace’s MCP URL (found under Settings → AI Connections and Tokens)

Option A: Configure via the CLI

  1. Have your token and URL ready

    Open Settings → AI Connections and Tokens in Picasi and copy the MCP URL (format: https://picasi.app/mcp/t-xxxxxxxxxx).

  2. Add MCP server

    Run the following command in a terminal:

    Terminal window
    claude mcp add picasi \
    --transport http \
    --url https://picasi.app/mcp/t-xxxxxxxxxx \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer DEIN_TOKEN"

    Replace t-xxxxxxxxxx and DEIN_TOKEN with your actual values.

  3. Test the connection

    Launch Claude Code and enter:

    > What sources are in my Picasi workspace?

    Claude will respond with real data if the connection is working.

Option B: Edit .mcp.json directly

If you prefer to have the configuration as a file in your project:

{
"mcpServers": {
"picasi": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://picasi.app/mcp/t-xxxxxxxxxx",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer DEIN_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}

Save this file as .mcp.json in the root of your project. Claude Code will read it automatically.
