Installation

The Syncello MCP server is remote — no local installation needed. You configure your MCP client to connect to Syncello's endpoint with your API key.

Prerequisites

• A Syncello account with at least one connected platform
• An MCP API key (generated from Settings → API Keys)
• An MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP client)

Step 1: Get Your MCP API Key

1. Log in to app.syncello.io
2. Go to Settings → API Keys
3. Click Create MCP Key
4. Select the tools and platforms you want to expose
5. Copy the generated key

Step 2: Configure Your Client

Claude Desktop

Add this to your Claude Desktop MCP config file:

OS	Config File Location
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows	%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Linux	~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "syncello": {
      "url": "https://api.syncello.io/v1/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "syncello": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://api.syncello.io/v1/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Verify Connection

After configuring, restart your MCP client. You should see Syncello tools appear in your tool list. Try asking:
