Prerequisites

  • Claude Desktop (download from claude.ai)

Setup Instructions

  1. Install @mcp-remote if not already installed:

    npm i mcp-remote
  2. Open Claude Desktop and navigate to Settings → Developer → Edit Config

  3. Add the Unizo PCR configuration to claude_desktop_config.json:

"--header",
"x-mcp-scopes:pcr"
],
"env": {
"UNIZO_API_KEY": "your_api_key"
