How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "carbone-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.carbone.io"
    }
  }
}

Also shipped through: npm

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
