Setup guide

IPALinked MCP setup — every tool

?
Quick answer

Add the config below for your editor, restart it, then say “share MyApp.ipa on IPALinked.” Every tool runs the same free package with npx -y ipalinked-mcp; you only need Node 18+. No account or token. The interactive picker with copy buttons is on the MCP page.

Prefer not to touch files? Paste “Add the ipalinked-mcp tool to my MCP config” into your assistant and it will do the rest. Otherwise, use the exact block for your tool:

Claude Code (CLI)

Run in your terminal:

claude mcp add ipalinked -- npx -y ipalinked-mcp

One command; Claude Code writes the config. Restart the session afterward.

Claude Desktop

File: claude_desktop_config.json — Settings → Developer → Edit Config

{ "mcpServers": { "ipalinked": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"] } } }

Save, then fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop.

OpenAI Codex

File: ~/.codex/config.toml — Codex uses TOML, not JSON

[mcp_servers.ipalinked] command = "npx" args = ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"]

Add the section and restart Codex.

Cursor

File: ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project)

{ "mcpServers": { "ipalinked": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"] } } }

Or use Settings → MCP → Add new server. Reload Cursor.

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

File: .vscode/mcp.json — note the key is servers

{ "servers": { "ipalinked": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"] } } }

Reload the window after saving.

Windsurf

File: ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "ipalinked": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"] } } }

Or Cascade → MCP settings → Add server, then refresh servers.

Zed

File: Zed settings.json (context_servers)

{ "context_servers": { "ipalinked": { "command": { "path": "npx", "args": ["-y", "ipalinked-mcp"] } } } }

Open settings.json from the command palette, add the block, restart Zed.

Open the interactive picker with copy buttonsPlus example prompts and the full tools list

Verify it works

After restarting, ask your assistant to “analyze a build” or “share MyApp.ipa on IPALinked.” If the tool runs, you're set. If nothing happens, confirm node -v shows v18 or higher and that you edited the correct config file for your tool.
