MCP Servers

After the installer prints the CLI tools section, it prints a list of MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to wire into Claude Code. This doc covers what each one does and how to configure it.

The installer prints claude mcp add ... commands — it doesn't run them. Copy and run them yourself, after setting any required environment variables.

What MCP is

MCP lets Claude Code talk directly to external services (Supabase, GitHub, Playwright, your filesystem) without leaving the session. Instead of Claude telling you to "open a new terminal and run X", Claude just calls the tool.

Full docs: https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/claude-code/mcp

Recommended servers

supabase

Required for: accelerator, mentoring, founder, any track that builds web apps.

What it does: Query your Supabase databases, run migrations, deploy edge functions, read logs.

Setup:

# 1. Get your Supabase access token from https://supabase.com/dashboard/account/tokens
export SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN=sbp_...

# 2. Add to Claude Code
claude mcp add supabase npx -y @supabase/mcp-server-supabase

On Windows PowerShell, use $env:SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN = "sbp_..." instead of export.

context7

Required for all tracks — heavily used by skills for fetching current library docs.

What it does: Fetches up-to-date documentation for libraries, frameworks, SDKs (React, Next.js, Prisma, etc.) so Claude doesn't rely on training-data-era knowledge.

Setup:

claude mcp add context7 npx -y @upstash/context7-mcp

No API key required.

playwright

Optional. Required if you're doing web app testing (Week 6 of Accelerator).

What it does: Browser automation — take screenshots, run E2E tests, inspect rendered pages.

Setup:

claude mcp add playwright npx -y @playwright/mcp

No API key required.

memory

Optional. Useful for long-running projects with persistent knowledge graphs.

What it does: Stores entities + relations across sessions. Used by some skills for retaining project context.

Setup:

claude mcp add memory npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory

No API key required.

Per-track recommendations

Track Recommended MCPs
accelerator supabase, context7, playwright, memory
course context7 (others optional)
mentoring supabase, context7, memory
founder context7 (supabase if client builds on it)
full all four

Adding more MCPs

MCP servers not listed here that are useful at various points:

  • GitHub MCP — repo/PR/issue operations (@modelcontextprotocol/server-github)
  • Stripe MCP — billing integration work (@stripe/mcp)
  • Figma MCP — design-to-code workflows (figma-developer-mcp)
  • n8n MCP — workflow automation integration

See the ORBWEVA Accelerator Skills Reference for the full list of MCPs used in the curriculum.

Verifying your MCP setup

In Claude Code:

/mcp

Lists all registered MCP servers and their connection status.

If a server shows as disconnected, check:

  1. The command in claude mcp list matches the docs (no typos).
  2. Required env vars are set in the shell where you started Claude Code.
  3. The npm package exists — npm view <package-name> should succeed.

Removing an MCP server

claude mcp remove <name>
