Prefer no install? Add the remote connector

On Claude.ai, Claude Desktop or Cowork, add Extenshi as a custom connector by URL — https://mcp.extenshi.io/mcp — and sign in with your Extenshi account. No API key, nothing to install. It exposes the search & research tools; use the local setup above when you need to scan or publish. Connector docs →
