- doc/deployment.md: run familiar as a remote MCP server — secure defaults, bearer vs OAuth modes, the full env-var reference, one-time login / token-store provisioning, the published images, docker compose, and TLS reverse-proxy blocks for nginx (proxy_buffering off + long read timeout), Caddy, and Traefik. - doc/clients/: one page per client with exact working steps — Claude Code, VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json with a masked token input, and the workspace .mcp.json header gotcha), Mistral Le Chat, Claude Desktop + Cowork (mcp-remote bridge, per-OS config paths), and Claude web (oauth mode + external IdP, with "use Desktop + bearer" as the simpler alternative). Plus a clients/ index. - README: a "Connect a client" matrix (client -> auth -> guide) and a compact "Deploy with Docker" section linking to doc/deployment.md; oauth mode noted. - doc/README.md index: rows for Deployment and Client setup. - doc/getting-started.md: pointer from the HTTPS quickstart to the full docs. - CLAUDE.md: FAMILIAR_AUTH_MODE / FAMILIAR_OAUTH_* / FAMILIAR_ALLOW_INSECURE_BIND and /healthz in the transport note; the split ci.yml / docker.yml workflows. Deployment docs live under the existing doc/ tree (the repo uses doc/, not a separate docs/) to keep a single documentation directory.

# Connect Claude Desktop
|
||||
|
||||
**Auth:** bearer token, via a local bridge. **Prereq:** familiar deployed over HTTPS (see [deployment](../deployment.md)), plus Node.js (`npx`) on the machine running Claude Desktop.
|
||||
|
||||
Claude Desktop's **Connectors** UI can add a remote MCP URL but **cannot attach a bearer header**. So bridge the remote HTTP server to a local stdio command with [`mcp-remote`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote), which forwards the `Authorization` header.
|
||||
|
||||
Edit `claude_desktop_config.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"mcpServers": {
|
||||
"familiar": {
|
||||
"command": "npx",
|
||||
"args": [
|
||||
"-y",
|
||||
"mcp-remote",
|
||||
"https://familiar.yourdomain.tld/mcp",
|
||||
"--header",
|
||||
"Authorization: Bearer <your-token>"
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Config file location:
|
||||
|
||||
- **macOS:** `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||
- **Windows:** `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||
- **Linux:** `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||
|
||||
Restart Claude Desktop fully (quit, not just close the window). familiar appears in the tools/plug icon.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
- **Server fails to start** — ensure Node.js is installed and `npx` is on PATH; the first run downloads `mcp-remote`.
|
||||
- **401** — fix the token in the `--header` argument, then restart.
|
||||
- **Want native (no bridge)?** Only the OAuth path is header-free, and Desktop's connector is happiest with bearer via this bridge — keep `mcp-remote` unless you've set up [oauth mode](claude-web.md).
