Claude Code mrd explain_properties

How to: Claude Code mrd explain_properties

client:Claude Code transport:streamable-http tool:explain_properties

Add mrd to Claude Code

  1. 01

    Run this in your project directory.

claude mcp add --transport http mrd https://newspacemarket.com/mrd-connect/mcp
  1. 02

    Restart your session so the server is picked up.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Adds it for this project only. Append --scope user to make it available everywhere. Claude Code docs

Set these first

mrd will not start until these are set, so explain_properties never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 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.
