01 · Install Trackly CLI

before you install - you'll need

TRACKLY_API_KEY

Environment variables documented in the project's README - it lists which are required and which have defaults.

Claude Code

claude mcp add trackly-app-trackly-cli --transport http https://mcp.usetrackly.app/api/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trackly-app-trackly-cli": {
      "url": "https://mcp.usetrackly.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
