Connect Claude Code
Claude Code is Anthropic's CLI agent for software engineering and broader knowledge work. Connect Japan Finsight with a single command.
Setup
- Open a terminal in your project directory.
- Add Japan Finsight as an MCP server:
claude mcp add japan-finsight \
--transport http \
--url https://japanfinsight.com/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key-from-welcome-email"
- Verify it registered:
claude mcp list
You should see japan-finsight in the output.
Verify in a session
Start a Claude Code session and ask:
"Use Japan Finsight to surface recent material events for Tokyo Electron."
Claude Code should call find_companies followed by get_material_events.
Troubleshooting
- "Connection refused": The public HTTP endpoint may not yet be live: see changelog. In the meantime, use Claude Desktop's local stdio path.
- "Authentication failed": Double-check your API key. Email data@japanfinsight.com if you need a fresh one issued.
