Already done Install? Skip to step 2.

1. Mint an API key + install the binary

pip install kataven-mcp, then mint a key at hub.kataven.ai/settingsAPI Keys tab. Full walkthrough: Install.

2. Open Warp’s MCP settings

Either:
  • SettingsAgentsMCP servers, OR
  • Command Palette (Cmd+P) → search Open MCP Servers, OR
  • Warp DrivePersonalMCP Servers
All three open the same panel.

3. Add the server

Click + Add. Warp accepts the universal JSON entry directly — paste:
Save. Warp launches kataven-mcp and shows it as running in the MCP servers list.
Already configured kataven-mcp for Claude Desktop or Codex? Toggle File-based MCP servers on under Settings → AI — Warp auto-detects servers from claude_desktop_config.json and ~/.codex/config.toml and reuses them, so you don’t have to add it twice.

4. Verify

Switch Warp into Agent Mode (Cmd+Shift+R, or the agent button in the prompt). Ask:
List all my Kataven agents.
The agent picks kataven_list_agents from its tool catalog.

5. Verify in the dashboard
