Claude Desktop TokenLab MCP Server open_tokenlab_model_explorer

Add TokenLab MCP Server to Claude Desktop

1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tokenlab": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@tokenlabai/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "TOKENLAB_API_BASE": "<TOKENLAB_API_BASE>",
        "TOKENLAB_API_KEY": "<TOKENLAB_API_KEY>",
        "TOKENLAB_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS": "<TOKENLAB_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS>",
        "TOKENLAB_MCP_TOOL_PROFILE": "<TOKENLAB_MCP_TOOL_PROFILE>",
        "TOKENLAB_MCP_SCHEMA_MODE": "<TOKENLAB_MCP_SCHEMA_MODE>",
        "TOKENLAB_MCP_MAX_FILE_BYTES": "<TOKENLAB_MCP_MAX_FILE_BYTES>",
        "TOKENLAB_MCP_INLINE_BYTES": "<TOKENLAB_MCP_INLINE_BYTES>",
        "TOKENLAB_ARTIFACT_DIR": "<TOKENLAB_ARTIFACT_DIR>",
        "TOKENLAB_MANAGEMENT_TOKEN": "<TOKENLAB_MANAGEMENT_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

2. 02

   Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

3. 03

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

4. 04

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

Settings → Developer → Edit Config opens this file. Restart the app after saving. Claude Desktop docs
