Connect Serge to your
LLM client

Pick one of two methods. You don't need both.

Open your Claude Desktop config file (Cursor uses the same JSON shape under its MCP settings):

Add Serge under the mcpServers object. Replace the placeholder with your sk_serge_ key:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serge": {
      "url": "https://mcp.serge.ai",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk_serge_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Using OAuth instead? Skip the config file: in Claude, open connector settings, add https://mcp.serge.ai, and complete the sign-in.

Restart your client so it loads the new server. The Serge tools should appear in the tool picker.

Confirm the connection is bound to the right workspace by asking your client to call whoami:

Ask Serge whoami — which workspace and scopes does this connection have?

It returns your workspace and the scopes on the key. If the scopes are missing, mint a new key with the traffic:read scope.

Use plain language. Your client maps the question to the right tool and fills in the period and domain.

If a tool replies site_not_found, ask your client to call list_sites and use a domain it returns.
