Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http citation-mcp https://citation.co/mcp
