# MCP Server

> Integrate Animam with Claude Code via MCP

Animam provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to integrate your chatbot directly into Claude Code and other MCP clients.

## What is MCP?

The **Model Context Protocol** is an open standard created by Anthropic to connect LLMs to external data sources. With the Animam MCP, you can:

* Manage your corpus directly from Claude Code
* Read recent conversations
* Modify tenant settings
* Test the chatbot locally

## Why use MCP?

| Without MCP          | With MCP         |
| -------------------- | ---------------- |
| Go to dashboard      | Stay in your IDE |
| Copy/paste content   | Direct commands  |
| Switch between tools | Unified workflow |

### Example

```
You: Add this FAQ to the corpus: "How do I reset my password?" -> "Click on Forgot password..."

Claude: I've added the entry to the corpus with the title "FAQ - Password reset".
```

## Compatible clients

The Animam MCP server works with:

* **Claude Code** (CLI) - Recommended
