Installation guide

Connect your AI tool to the Klaxoon MCP server using marketplace installation, OAuth auto-discovery, or your own OAuth application.

Connect your AI tool to the Klaxoon MCP server so you can work with boards (sticky-notes, text, shapes, and more).

Option 1: Marketplace installation (recommended)

Install the Klaxoon MCP connector from your AI tool marketplace when it is available for your workspace.

  • ChatGPT: available from the ChatGPT marketplace.
  • Anthropic: coming soon to the Anthropic marketplace.

Option 2: Manual installation with OAuth auto-discovery

Use OAuth auto-discovery to connect without copying or pasting a token.

Use the server URL https://api.klaxoon.com/mcp in the configuration for your client.

Manual installation is also possible with clients that support remote MCP server configuration, including:

  • Gemini, with an Enterprise license.
  • Mistral.
  1. Add the Klaxoon MCP server to your client.
  2. Start the MCP connection from your client.
  3. Complete the browser sign-in flow with your Klaxoon account.
  4. Return to your client after the session is configured automatically.

Add this configuration to .cursor/mcp.json for the current project, or to ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all projects:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "klaxoon": {
      "url": "https://api.klaxoon.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Optional: Use your own OAuth application for manual installation

Use your own OAuth application if your client does not support auto-discovery, or if you want to manage your own OAuth credentials.

  1. Create an OAuth application by following Register your app.
  2. Configure the application with these values:
    • Use the mcp scope.
    • Register the redirect URI required by the target client.
    • Keep the generated client_id.
    • Keep the generated client_secret if the client supports custom OAuth credentials.
