How to Install and Use Scalekit MCP

If you want to manage users, organizations, and connections through AI conversations using Scalekit MCP, this guide will show you how to set it up and use it easily. Scalekit MCP uses natural language identity management and provides secure access with OAuth protection to keep everything safe.

Step 1: Choose Your MCP Client

Before installing Scalekit MCP, you need to pick the MCP client app where you'll use it. Some popular options are Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf. Each client requires a simple setup to connect with Scalekit MCP.

Step 2: Configure the MCP Server for Your Client

Now, let's set up the MCP server in your chosen app. Here is how you do it for the main clients:

Claude Desktop

1. Open Claude Desktop.
2. Go to Settings, then Developer.
3. Click Edit Config.
4. Open the file claude_desktop_config.json.
5. Copy this server configuration and paste it in your file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scalekit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.scalekit.com/"]
    }
  }
}

1. Save the file and restart Claude.

Cursor

1. Open Cursor and go to Settings.
2. Select Cursor Settings.
3. On the left, choose MCP.
4. Click Add "New Global MCP Server" at the top-right.
5. Paste the same config as above, then save.
6. Restart Cursor.

Windsurf

1. Open Windsurf.
2. Go to Settings > Developer.
3. Click Edit Config.
4. Open the windsurf_config.json file.
5. Paste the server config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scalekit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.scalekit.com/"]
    }
  }
}

1. Save and restart Windsurf.

Step 3: Use Scalekit MCP Tools

Once the server is connected, you can manage environments, organizations, users, and more by using the available tools. For example:

• To list all environments, run the tool list_environments.
• To create a new organization, use create_organization with your environment ID.
• To invite a workspace member, run invite_workspace_member with the person's email.

Each tool requires proper parameters and scopes (permissions) to work. Most actions need you to provide an environment ID starting with env_.

Step 4: Secure Your Setup with OAuth

Scalekit MCP uses OAuth 2.1 for secure access. When you register Scalekit MCP as a server, an OAuth authorization process ensures your AI agents and the Scalekit platform communicate safely using tokens. This keeps your identity management protected.

Recap

• Pick an MCP client like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf.
• Add the Scalekit MCP server config using the exact JSON example.
• Restart your MCP client to apply the changes.
• Use tools like list_environments or create_organization to manage identities.
• Rely on OAuth for secure and protected access.

With these steps, installing and using Scalekit MCP is simple and powerful, helping you manage AI app identities easily through natural language and secure protocols.
