Connect Claude Code - Watchdog Help Center

Check availability and permissions before setting up a connection. These commands follow the Claude Code guide.

Connect

Run these commands to create one read-only connection:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user watchdog https://mcp.watchdog.no/mcp/readonly
claude mcp login watchdog

Sign in through your browser and approve access. --scope user makes the connection available across your projects.

Allow changes

Replace the existing connection with the standard address, keeping the same name:

claude mcp remove --scope user watchdog
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user watchdog https://mcp.watchdog.no/mcp
claude mcp login watchdog

Sign in again, then reconnect so Claude Code refreshes the available actions.

Check and disconnect

Use /mcp to inspect the connection, then try an example task. With claude mcp login watchdog --no-browser, paste the return URL into the terminal when asked, never into a conversation. To remove the connection, run claude mcp remove --scope user watchdog. See Disconnect for how to cancel the access itself, or connection help.
