Remote MCP support in Claude Code

Key takeaways:

  • Claude Code now supports remote MCP (Model-Connected Plugin) servers, allowing integration with third-party tools and data sources without the need for local server setup.
  • With remote MCP integration, Claude Code can access and interact with external services like Sentry (for debugging) and Linear (for project management) directly within the coding interface.
  • The feature enhances developer workflow by providing structured, real-time context and enabling seamless transitions between coding and task management.
  • Remote MCP servers require minimal maintenance, just input the vendor’s URL, and updates, scaling, and uptime are managed by the vendor.
  • Claude Code supports secure OAuth authentication for connecting to MCP servers, eliminating the need to manage API keys or manually store credentials.
