## Introduction

{{% alert color="info" %}}
This feature is available in Studio Pro 11.10 and above.

To use Maia MCP Server, an internet connection and signing in to Studio Pro are required.
{{% /alert %}}

Maia MCP Server in Studio Pro enables you to leverage Maia's capabilities directly from external clients, including AI coding assistants, agents, and other MCP-based LLM tools.

It has the following key highlights:

* Full Maia feature parity — The MCP Server exposes the same capabilities that Maia offers within Studio Pro.
* Live updates — Any changes made through Maia via the MCP Server are reflected in real time within Studio Pro.

## Enabling the MCP Server

To enable the MCP Server, navigate to **Preferences** > **Maia** > **MCP Server**, and check **Enable MCP Server**. You can also configure the port in this menu.

### Connecting External Clients

Once enabled, you can connect external clients to the MCP Server. For example, to add it to Claude Code, run the following command:

`claude mcp add <name> --transport http http://localhost:<port>/mcp`

Replace `<name>` with your preferred server name and `<port>` with the port configured in **Preferences**.
