1

Create/Edit Config File

Add configuration to ~/.claude.json (recommended):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ip-protection": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@nomic/ip-protection-mcp"]
    }

2

Restart Claude Code

Restart Claude Code or use /mcp to check server status.

Windows Users

Use full path: "command": "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\npx.cmd"

MCP Server Active!

Patent detection tools are now available in your conversations.

Alternative: CLI Setup

Use Claude Code's built-in wizard:

claude mcp add ip-protection -- npx -y @nomic/ip-protection-mcp

Pro tip: Direct file editing gives more control, especially for complex configurations.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues:

MCP server not recognized

Ensure you're using ~/.claude.json instead of ~/.claude/settings.json. Launch with --mcp-debug flag for debugging.

Cannot connect to MCP server (Windows)

Use full path: "command": "C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\npx.cmd" instead of just "npx".

Configuration ignored

Direct file editing is recommended over CLI wizard for complex configurations. Restart Claude Code after changes.
