Setup Guide

Open Connectors Settings

Open Claude → Settings → Connectors → Add Custom Connector

Add Dandex

Enter Dandex as the name and paste the server URL:

https://dandex.ai/mcp?token=YOUR_TOKEN

Replace YOUR_TOKEN with the token from your welcome email or dashboard

Done!

Dandex tools are now available in your Claude conversations. Try asking:

Open the Config File

Open your terminal and run the command for your platform:

open "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json"

notepad "$env:APPDATA\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json"

xdg-open "$HOME/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json"

If the file doesn't exist yet, create it first or open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config.

Add the MCP Server Configuration

Paste this into your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dandex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://dandex.ai/mcp?token=YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_TOKEN with the token from your welcome email or dashboard

Restart Claude Desktop

Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect. You should see Dandex tools available in your conversations.

Run the Add Command

Open your terminal and run:

claude mcp add dandex -- npx mcp-remote "https://dandex.ai/mcp?token=YOUR_TOKEN"

Replace YOUR_TOKEN with your token

Verify Installation

Check that Dandex is installed:

claude mcp list

You should see "dandex" in the list of MCP servers.

Configure local MCP server

Add Dandex to your claude_desktop_config.json (see the Claude Desktop section above):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dandex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://dandex.ai/mcp?token=YOUR_TOKEN"]
    }
  }
}

This uses mcp-remote to run Dandex as a local stdio server — exactly what scheduled tasks require.

Ensure Node.js is installed

Scheduled tasks run in the background and need npx available. Verify with:

node --version  # Must be v18+

Create a scheduled task

In Claude Desktop, ask Claude to create a scheduled task. Examples:

Example: Daily morning briefing

Say this to Claude to create a daily task:

Claude will create the task, and it runs automatically every day at 8am. Results are delivered as a notification.
