Install APIThreshold in Claude Code

What you need first

  • Claude Code, installed.
  • Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
  • Your own value for YOUR_APITHRESHOLD_LLM_PROVIDER.

Steps

  1. Run this in a terminal, in the project folder. It adds the server for you in that project; put --scope user after claude mcp add to have it in every project.
claude mcp add --env APITHRESHOLD_LLM_PROVIDER=YOUR_APITHRESHOLD_LLM_PROVIDER --transport stdio apithreshold -- docker run -i --rm -e APITHRESHOLD_LLM_PROVIDER ghcr.io/apithreshold/apithreshold:0.1.0 serve --transport stdio
  1. Replace YOUR_APITHRESHOLD_LLM_PROVIDER with your own value.
  2. Start Claude Code and type /mcp: the server is listed with its state.

Check it worked

Ask Claude Code: List the tools of apithreshold.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon
Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Claude Code.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
