description: Install the AdCrunch MCP server in Claude Code and authorize your organization.
---

:::tip

AdCrunch is a **remote MCP server** — there's nothing to install locally. One command adds it; OAuth happens in your browser.

:::

If you sign in to Claude Code with a claude.ai account that already has the AdCrunch connector, Claude Code loads it for you. Run `/mcp` to check. You then need no step below.

## Install

1. **Add the server**

    From any terminal:

    ```bash
    claude mcp add --transport http adcrunch https://mcp.adcrunch.dev/mcp
    ```

        To make it available in every project, and not only the current one, put
        `--scope user` before the name: `claude mcp add --scope user --transport
        http adcrunch https://mcp.adcrunch.dev/mcp`.

2. **Authorize**

    Inside a Claude Code session, run `/mcp`, select **adcrunch**, and choose
    **Authenticate**. Your browser opens the AdCrunch sign-in. Sign in and
    approve the access.

The consent screen does not ask for an organization. Claude Code acts for the organization that is active in your most recent AdCrunch session. [Auth & scopes](/mcp/auth#which-organization-your-client-acts-for) explains how to choose it.

## Try it

Ask Claude Code: _"List my advertisers."_ It calls `list_advertisers` and reads back the result.

If that works, go to the [Quickstart](/quickstart#ten-minutes-start-to-finish) for a first question and a first change.

## Troubleshooting

:::warning[Server not connecting]

Run `/mcp` to check the server status. From there, **Clear authentication** and then **Authenticate** sign you in again. To start over: `claude mcp remove adcrunch`, then add it again.
