Claude Code Integration​

To use SLOP MCP with Claude Code, add it to your MCP configuration:

Install the slop-mcp plugin from the standardbeagle-tools marketplace:

claude mcp install standardbeagle/slop-mcp

Manual Configuration​

Add to your Claude Code settings (~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "slop-mcp": {
      "command": "slop-mcp",
      "args": ["serve"]
    }
  }
}

Or if using npx:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "slop-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@standardbeagle/slop-mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

Windows users: Claude Code on Windows may corrupt scoped package names (converting / to \). Use cmd /c to wrap the npx call:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "slop-mcp": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@standardbeagle/slop-mcp@latest", "serve"]
    }
  }
}
