## Documentation & README

# patchlog-mcp

MCP server for [Patchlog](https://patchlog.io). Write, update, and publish your changelog straight from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any other MCP client. Ship a feature, then tell your agent "add a changelog entry for this" and it lands on your public changelog.

## Requirements

- A [Patchlog](https://patchlog.io) account on the Pro plan (the API is a Pro feature)
- An API token from [Settings > API Tokens](https://patchlog.io/settings/api-tokens)
- Node.js 18 or newer

## Setup

### Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add patchlog -e PATCHLOG_API_TOKEN=your-token-here -- npx -y patchlog-mcp
```

### Claude Desktop

Add this to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "patchlog": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "patchlog-mcp"],
            "env": {
                "PATCHLOG_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Cursor

Add the same block to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project, or to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` globally:

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "patchlog": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "patchlog-mcp"],
            "env": {
                "PATCHLOG_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Remote server (no Node required)

Patchlog also serves this same tool set as a remote MCP endpoint. Point your client at `https://patchlog.io/mcp` with your API token as a bearer token:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http patchlog https://patchlog.io/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer your-token-here"
```
