Connect Claude Desktop

Give Claude Desktop access to your Orcha workspace over MCP.

Prerequisites

An API token from the Tokens page. See Tokens and scoping.

Configuration

Add the server to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orcha": {
      "url": "https://app.tryorcha.com/mcp",
      "type": "http",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer orca_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop after saving. The Orcha tools appear in the tools menu once the server connects.
