How to: Claude Desktop Testlify MCP by usefulapi testlify_get_profile_summary

client:Claude Desktop transport:streamable-http tool:testlify_get_profile_summary

Add Testlify MCP by usefulapi to Claude Desktop

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "testlify": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://testlify.usefulapi.io/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Testlify MCP by usefulapi'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 14 November 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.
