Quickstart

This takes about five minutes.

  1. Accept your invitation, sign in and enter your access code. Your account page shows your tier.
  2. Open Access tokens, name a token after the editor you will use, and copy it. It is shown once.
  3. Put the token in an environment variable:

    export DESK_GENIE_TOKEN="dg_..."
    
  4. Connect your MCP client. For Claude Code, the plugin is the simplest way. To add only the MCP server:

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user desk-genie-hosted https://stage.app.deskgenie.studio/api/mcp \
      --header "Authorization: Bearer $DESK_GENIE_TOKEN"
    

    The MCP page has one-click installs for VS Code and Cursor.

  5. Ask your agent to list Desk Genie characters, then to say hello to Pip.
