Try Switchy in Claude Desktop

Switchy is also an MCP server. Drop one snippet in your client's config, paste a key, and your team's memory + Spaces show up inside the LLM you already use.

1. Mint a key

Go to Settings → API keys and click Mint MCP key. Switchy creates a key with all the MCP scopes for your current org. You'll see the raw key once — copy it.

2. Add the snippet

Drop this into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (Mac) or your client's equivalent:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "switchy": {
      "transport": "http",
      "url": "https://switchy.build/mcp/rpc",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace sk_live_... with the key you just minted. Restart Claude Desktop after editing.

3. Confirm it's wired

From a terminal:

curl -X POST https://switchy.build/mcp/rpc \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

A 200 with the tool list means you're live. If you get a 401, double-check the key.

4. Use it

In Claude Desktop, ask: "use search_memory to find what we decided about deploys." Claude calls the Switchy MCP and streams the result back, all without leaving the chat.

Other clients

The same snippet works in Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json) and Windsurf. The full install reference, including troubleshooting, lives at /docs/mcp.
