Install openaccountants

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect Ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on Ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user openaccountants 'https://www.openaccountants.com/api/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://www.openaccountants.com/api/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT
