Claude Desktop bidclub bidclub_get_episode

Add bidclub to Claude Desktop

1. 01

   Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bidclub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://bidclub.ai/api/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

2. 02

   Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

3. 03

   Ask for something bidclub_get_episode does. Claude Desktop lists the server's tools on connect and calls bidclub_get_episode itself — you do not invoke it by name.

4. 04

   If nothing happens, check the server is running and that bidclub's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Claude Desktop has no remote transport in its config file, so this bridges through mcp-remote. Restart the app after saving. Claude Desktop docs
