## Install

The vendor hosts this server, so you only add its URL and nothing runs on your machine. If it needs authentication, the row above says how; OAuth servers prompt you on first connection.

### Claude Code

`shell`

```
claude mcp add --transport http --scope project neon https://mcp.neon.tech/mcp
```

### Cursor

`.cursor/mcp.json`

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "neon": {
      "url": "https://mcp.neon.tech/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Codex

`~/.codex/config.toml`

```
[mcp_servers.neon]
url = "https://mcp.neon.tech/mcp"
```
