Add uk police crime mcp server to Claude Desktop

Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"uk-police-crime-mcp-server": {

"https://uk-police-crime.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
]
}
}
}-

-
03
Ask for something ukcrime_find_neighbourhood does. Claude Desktop lists the server's tools on connect and calls ukcrime_find_neighbourhood itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that uk police crime mcp server'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

Same tool, other clients
This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 2 October 2026. It is what
the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.
Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
