# Praktik MCP server

The Praktik MCP server lets you connect Praktik to MCP-compatible assistants such as Claude. After setup, you can ask Claude to use Praktik as a connected tool while you work on legal research and related tasks.

> **Testing:** The MCP connector is currently in testing. Availability, tool names, and behaviour may change while we improve the integration.

## What you need

- An active Praktik account.
- Claude desktop or web app with custom connectors enabled.
- The Praktik MCP endpoint:

```text
https://app.praktik.ai/mcp
```

## Set up the connector in Claude

### 1. Open Settings

In Claude, open your account menu in the bottom-left corner and select **Settings**.

### 2. Go to Connectors

In **Settings**, open **Connectors**. Claude may show a message that connectors moved to **Customize**. Click **Customize** to continue.

Then click **Add**.

If Claude asks you to authenticate or grant access, sign in with your Praktik account and approve the connection.

## Use Praktik from Claude

After the connector is added, start a new Claude chat and ask Claude to use Praktik for the task. For example:

```text
Use Praktik to find relevant Slovak case law for this legal question: …
```

```text
Use the Praktik connector to verify this legal argument against available sources.
```

Claude should show when it is using the Praktik connector. Review the returned sources and outputs before relying on them in legal work.

## Troubleshooting

- **Connector is not visible:** Check that custom connectors are enabled for your Claude account or workspace.
- **Authentication fails:** Sign out and sign in again, then add the connector again.
- **Unexpected results:** The connector is in testing. Try a more specific prompt and verify important conclusions in Praktik.
