Give Claude Code access to the Arcus docs so it can answer questions and generate code grounded in the live REST and WebSocket reference.

Prerequisites

  • Claude Code installed (npm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
  • An Anthropic account (Claude Pro, Max, Team, or API access)

Setup

1

Add the MCP server

In your terminal, run:
Optional scope:
  • -s user — available across every project on this machine
  • -s project — saved to .mcp.json in the repo (shared with teammates)
  • default (no flag) — only this project, only you
2

Verify the connection

You should see arcus-docs ✓ Connected. Inside a session, /mcp will also show the tools the server exposes (search_arcus_docs, query_docs_filesystem_arcus_docs, submit_feedback).
3

Try it

Ask something that exercises the spec:
Which endpoint accepts take-profit and stop-loss parameters — placeOrder or batchPlaceOrders? Show me the request shape.
Claude Code will call the MCP server, pull the relevant page, and answer from the actual spec instead of guessing.

Removing the server

Notes

  • The server needs no authentication — there is no sign-in step.
  • The first request may take a moment while the client establishes the streaming HTTP session.
  • For the underlying server details, see the MCP server overview.
