Requirements

Before getting started, make sure you have:

  • Node.js / npx installed on your device

  • Your API Key and Client ID

  • A Desktop MCP Client (e.g. Claude Desktop)


Installing Node.js

Node.js is required to run the MCP Server via npx. Follow the steps below depending on your device.

Windows

  1. Download the LTS (Recommended) version

  2. Open the downloaded file and follow the installation steps

  3. After installation, open Command Prompt and run:

    node -v

    If you see a version number, you're good to go ✅


Mac

  1. Download the LTS (Recommended) version

  2. Open the .pkg file and follow the installation steps

  3. After installation, open Terminal and run:

    node -v

    If you see a version number, installation was successful ✅


Getting the API Key and Client ID

⚠️ API Keys have access to all meetings and calls within your workspace, so handle them carefully.

  1. Go to Settings → Integrations → API & Webhooks

  2. Create a new API Key

  3. Copy:

    • API Key

    • Client ID

⚠️ Make sure to store the API Key somewhere safe — it is only shown once.


Configuration

Add the following configuration to your MCP Client config file:

"mcpServers": {
"kickscale": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.kickscale.com",
"--header",
"api-key:[YOUR-API-KEY]",
"--header",
"client-id:[YOUR-CLIENT-ID]"
]
}
}

Example for Claude Desktop

  1. Open Claude Desktop

  2. Go to Settings → Developer

  3. Click Edit config

  4. Open the claude_desktop_config.json file

  5. Paste the configuration above


Tips & Best Practices

  • Always double-check your API Key and Client ID for typos

  • Keep your API Key secure — do not share it publicly

  • Use the LTS version of Node.js for best compatibility


Troubleshooting

Node command not found

  • Restart your computer after installing Node.js

  • Make sure Node.js was installed correctly

Configuration not working

  • Check for missing commas or brackets in your JSON file

  • Ensure API Key and Client ID are correctly inserted
