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.

Claude Code

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

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http the-living-bread-mcp https://mcp.living-bread.org/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add the-living-bread-mcp --url https://mcp.living-bread.org/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable the-living-bread-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "the-living-bread-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.living-bread.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.
