Connect Claude Code

Add Attorly to Claude Code with one command and use its tools for contracts, clauses and legal research from your terminal.

Before you start

  • An Attorly Pro or Enterprise plan.
  • Claude Code installed and signed in (run claude --version to check).

Steps

  1. Create a key

    Create a key in Settings › Developers and choose Claude Code. The settings page then shows the steps below with your key already filled in.

    Create a key for Claude Code

  2. Add Attorly to Claude Code

    One command adds Attorly to Claude Code for every project on this computer.

    Run this in your terminal

    bash
    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user attorly https://attorly.ai/api/mcp \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer lbmcp_your_api_key'

    Check that Claude Code can reach Attorly

    bash
    claude mcp get attorly

  3. Check that it works

    Start Claude Code and run /mcp. Attorly should be listed as connected. Then ask: “List my five most recent documents in Attorly.”

If it does not work

/mcp shows Attorly as failed.
Run claude mcp get attorly and check the URL and the Authorization header. To start over, run claude mcp remove attorly --scope user and add it again.
Attorly only works in one project.
It was added without --scope user, so Claude Code saved it for the current project only. Remove it and add it again with --scope user.
Something else went wrong.
Errors such as 401, insufficient_scope and rate_limited are explained in the MCP troubleshooting section. Every call also appears in Settings › Developers › Request logs, with the error it returned. MCP troubleshooting
