Configure your agent

Claude Code & Codex — one click

Open MCP in the Innkeeper desktop app. Click Configure next to your agent, then start a new agent session.

If your agent isn’t listed, install it on your Mac first, then reopen the MCP page.

Other MCP clients

In your agent’s MCP settings, add a local server named innkeeper using stdio.

Command
/Applications/Innkeeper.app/Contents/MacOS/innkeeper-service
Arguments
mcp

If your client uses a mcpServers JSON configuration, add this entry to it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "innkeeper": {
      "command": "/Applications/Innkeeper.app/Contents/MacOS/innkeeper-service",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Save and restart your agent. If you installed Innkeeper somewhere else, adjust the command path.
