- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_URL,YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_TOKEN.

- Run this in a terminal, in the project folder. It adds the server for you in that
project; put

claude mcp add --env GHOSTFOLIO_URL=YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_URL --env GHOSTFOLIO_TOKEN=YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_TOKEN --transport stdio ghostfolio-mcp -- uvx ghostfolio-mcp==1.8.1 - Replace
YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_URL,YOUR_GHOSTFOLIO_TOKENwith your own values. - Start Claude Code and type
/mcp: the server is listed with its state.
Check it worked
Ask Claude Code: List the tools of ghostfolio-mcp.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that Claude Code sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
