Install

1Add the server to Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http pdf-viewer https://example-server.modelcontextprotocol.io/pdf/mcp

2Sign in

Run /mcp in Claude Code and complete the login flow for this server.

These instructions target Claude Code. Check the publisher's documentation for support in other Claude surfaces; a valid server URL alone does not establish compatibility.
