Claude Desktop

Installation

Option 1: Using Kirha CLI (Recommended)

The easiest way to install and configure Kirha MCP Gateway for Claude Desktop is using our CLI tool:

# Install for Claude Desktop
npx @kirha/mcp-installer install --client claude --vertical crypto --key your-api-key-here

# Install with plan mode enabled
# Plan mode includes two-step validation, letting you review and approve the data providers and pricing before each prompt runs.
# You can always deactive it later in your Claude configuration file.
npx @kirha/mcp-installer install --client claude --vertical crypto --key your-api-key-here --enable-plan-mode

For more details and advanced usage, see the MCP Installer documentation.
