FAQ from 🚀 Dev.to MCP Server

What authentication is needed for this MCP server?

Each client must provide their own Dev.to API key via the DEVTO_API_KEY environment variable in the client’s MCP server configuration.

Can I use this server with Claude Desktop or Cursor?

Yes. Configure the MCP server in your client’s config.json with "url": "http://localhost:8000/sse". Some clients may require serverUrl instead of url.
