Install Bring Photo in Claude Code
What you need first
- Claude Code, installed.
- Node.js, which
gives the
npxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_BRING_ENV,YOUR_BRING_EMAIL,YOUR_BRING_PASSWORD,YOUR_BRING_DEFAULT_LIST,YOUR_BRING_ALLOWED_LISTS.
Steps
- Run this in a terminal, in the project folder. It adds the server for you in that
project; put
--scope userafterclaude mcp addto have it in every project.
claude mcp add --env BRING_ENV=YOUR_BRING_ENV --env BRING_EMAIL=YOUR_BRING_EMAIL --env BRING_PASSWORD=YOUR_BRING_PASSWORD --env BRING_DEFAULT_LIST=YOUR_BRING_DEFAULT_LIST --env BRING_ALLOWED_LISTS=YOUR_BRING_ALLOWED_LISTS --transport stdio bring-photo-mcp -- npx -y [email protected] - Replace
YOUR_BRING_ENV,YOUR_BRING_EMAIL,YOUR_BRING_PASSWORD,YOUR_BRING_DEFAULT_LIST,YOUR_BRING_ALLOWED_LISTSwith 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 bring-photo-mcp.
If it does not start
- spawn npx ENOENT
- Node.js is not on the PATH that Claude Code sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
npxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
