{
"mcpServers": {

claude mcp add --transport http pinloft 'https://pinloft.cybermaxtools.com/mcp?via=use-with-claude-code' \
--header "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY"In .mcp.json, ${CYBERMAX_API_KEY} is read from the environment so the key is not committed.

This lists the tools without a key and without calling any of them:
curl -s https://pinloft.cybermaxtools.com/mcp \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'If it does not work
- If a project-scoped server does not load, Claude Code asks you to approve servers from .mcp.json the first time.
- The free tier has a daily limit (see the pricing line above); a paid key raises it.
