  New to the MCP servers? Start with the overview.
</Card>

We provide three public MCP servers for AI-assisted development:

| Server           | Name              | Description                                                                                       | URL                                                      |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| **SDK Docs**     | `CameraRemoteSDK` | Camera Remote SDK documentation, API references, and code examples (C++/C#)                       | `https://sdk-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp`    |
| **Help Guides**  | `CameraHelp`      | Camera help guides, settings, and feature documentation for 24 Sony camera models                 | `https://camera-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp` |
| **Web API Docs** | `CameraWebAPI`    | Alpha Camera REST API docs, endpoint reference, request/response formats, and client SDK guidance | `https://crsdk.app/mcp`                                  |

All three servers are compatible with Anthropic's LLMs (claude.ai, Claude Mobile, Claude Desktop, and Claude Code) as well as other AI-powered IDEs like Cursor. You can install any combination of them.

<Note>
  These tools are still in Private Beta. Please do not share the MCP server URLs with others.

## Setup Instructions

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Claude">
    ### Requirements

    * Claude Pro, Max, or Enterprise account (starting at \$20/month)

    <Info>
      If you intend to use both [claude.ai](http://claude.ai) and Claude Code, you must set up each application separately. MCP servers are not shared between them.
    </Info>

    ### Configuration Steps

    Repeat these steps for each MCP server you want to install:

    1. **Add the Connector**
       * Go to **Settings → Connectors**
       * Click **Add custom connector**
       * Name it using the server name from the table above (e.g. `CameraRemoteSDK`, `CameraHelp`, or `CameraWebAPI`)
       * Paste the corresponding MCP Server URL into the "Remote MCP server URL" field
       * Click **Add**
       * Refresh if needed — you should now see your new connector
    2. **Configure Tools**

       Each server provides specialized search tools. Your AI automatically selects the best tool for your question.

           <Tip>
             Claude will automatically determine the best tool to answer the query, though you can always specify a tool if you already know what type of content you are looking for.
           </Tip>

       To configure a server's tools:

       * Navigate to **Settings → Connectors**
       * Next to the connector, click the **Configure** button
       * You'll now be able to see all available tools the server offers

       By default, all tools will be **enabled**.

           <Warning>
             Disable the **search** and **fetch** tools before prompting. These tools are intended for use only with ChatGPT.
           </Warning>
    3. **Set Tool Permissions**

       The default tool permission setting is **always ask for permission**.

       In this configuration, Claude will ask for permission every time it wants to use a tool. To allow automatic tool usage, set the permission to **allow unsupervised**.

           <Tip>
             We recommend setting all tool permissions to **allow unsupervised** when first using the servers. Based on your observations, you can disable tools and change permissions to help Claude's searches align better with your preferences.
           </Tip>
    4. **Configure System Prompt (Optional but Recommended)**

       A system prompt significantly improves performance. See the [System Prompt](/mcp-server/system-prompt) page for setup instructions.

    ### Using the MCP Servers

    1. Open a **new chat window**
    2. Click the **search and tools** icon button in the chat box
    3. You should see your connectors at the top of the list
    4. Toggle the connectors **on** to enable them
    5. You can also toggle individual tools directly in the chat window

    ### Removing a Connector

    * Go to **Settings → Connectors**
    * Click the **More** icon button next to the connector
    * Click **Remove** to permanently remove it, or **Disconnect** to temporarily disable it
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Claude Code">
    ### Requirements

    * Claude Code CLI installed
    * Node.js v18+ with `npx` available on your PATH

    <Info>
      If you intend to use both [claude.ai](http://claude.ai) and Claude Code, you must set up each application separately. MCP servers are not shared between them.
    </Info>

    <Warning>
      Server names **must not contain spaces**. Use the exact names shown below.
    </Warning>

    ### Quick Setup (CLI)

    Run these commands to add each server you want:

    ### Manual Setup (JSON Config)

    If the CLI has issues or you prefer editing config files directly, paste the JSON into the appropriate file for your desired scope.

    #### Project Scope — `.mcp.json` (Team Shared)

    Create a `.mcp.json` file in your **project root**:

    <Tabs>
      <Tab title="macOS / Linux">
        ```json theme={null}
        {
          "mcpServers": {
            "CameraRemoteSDK": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "npx",
              "args": [
                "mcp-remote",
                "https://sdk-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp"
              ]
            },
            "CameraHelp": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "npx",
              "args": [
                "mcp-remote",
                "https://camera-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp"
              ]
            },
            "CameraWebAPI": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "npx",
              "args": [
                "mcp-remote",
                "https://crsdk.app/mcp"
              ]
            }
          }
        }
        ```
      </Tab>

      <Tab title="Windows">
        On Windows, `npx` must be wrapped with `cmd /c`:

        ```json theme={null}
        {
          "mcpServers": {
            "CameraRemoteSDK": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "cmd",
              "args": [
                "/c", "npx", "mcp-remote",
                "https://sdk-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp"
              ]
            },
            "CameraHelp": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "cmd",
              "args": [
                "/c", "npx", "mcp-remote",
                "https://camera-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp"
              ]
            },
            "CameraWebAPI": {
              "type": "stdio",
              "command": "cmd",
              "args": [
                "/c", "npx", "mcp-remote",
                "https://crsdk.app/mcp"
              ]
            }
          }
        }
        ```
      </Tab>
    </Tabs>

    <Tip>
      Commit `.mcp.json` to version control to share MCP server configuration with your team.
    </Tip>

    #### User Scope — `~/.claude.json` (Global)

    Available across all projects on your machine. Merge into your existing `~/.claude.json` (create it if it doesn't exist).

    | OS          | Path                                    |
    | ----------- | --------------------------------------- |
    | **macOS**   | `/Users/<your-username>/.claude.json`   |
    | **Linux**   | `/home/<your-username>/.claude.json`    |
    | **Windows** | `C:\Users\<your-username>\.claude.json` |

    Uses the same JSON format as Project Scope above.

    #### Local Scope — `.claude.local.json` (Private)

    Private to the current user and project only. Place in your project root. Uses the same JSON format as above.

    #### Scope Priority

    When the same server is defined in multiple scopes: **Local > Project > User**

    ***

    ### Tool Permissions

    Auto-approve tools by adding to your settings config (`~/.claude.json`, `.claude/settings.json`, or `.claude/settings.local.json`):

    **Approve all servers:**

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "approvedTools": [
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK",
        "mcp__CameraHelp",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI"
      ]
    }
    ```

    **Or approve specific tools only:**

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "approvedTools": [
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_sdk",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_code_examples",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_documentation",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_api_functions",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_compatibility",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_hybrid",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_exact_api",

        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_warning_codes",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__search_by_source_file",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__get_sdk_context",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__get_current_sdk_version",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__set_sdk_version",
        "mcp__CameraRemoteSDK__set_sdk_language",
        "mcp__CameraHelp__search_camera",
        "mcp__CameraHelp__search_help_guides",
        "mcp__CameraHelp__search_topic",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_sdk",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_code_examples",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_documentation",

        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_exact_api",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_error_codes",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_warning_codes",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__search_by_source_file",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__get_sdk_context",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__get_current_sdk_version",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__set_sdk_version",
        "mcp__CameraWebAPI__set_sdk_language"
      ]
    }
    ```

    <Note>
      Wildcards (`*`) are not supported — you must explicitly list each tool or approve the entire server.
    </Note>

    ### Managing & Removing Servers

    ```bash theme={null}
    claude mcp list                                       # List all servers
    claude mcp remove CameraRemoteSDK --scope user        # Remove SDK Docs
    claude mcp remove CameraHelp --scope user             # Remove Help Guides
    claude mcp remove CameraWebAPI --scope user           # Remove Web API Docs
    ```

    <Note>
      Restart Claude Code or start a new session after modifying MCP server configurations.
    </Note>

    ### Troubleshooting

    | ------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
    | `npx` not found                       | Ensure Node.js (v18+) is installed and `npx` is on your PATH. Verify with `npx --version`.                                              |
    | Windows: `npx` not recognized         | Use the `cmd /c` wrapper as shown in the Windows configs above. If still failing, try the full path: `C:\Program Files\nodejs\npx.cmd`  |
    | Server not connecting                 | Ensure you're not behind a proxy/VPN blocking the server URLs.                                                                          |
    | `approvedTools` not working           | Verify the server name in your MCP config matches the prefix in `approvedTools` (e.g. `CameraRemoteSDK`, `CameraHelp`, `CameraWebAPI`). |
    | `.mcp.json` not detected              | File must be in the **project root** directory. Restart Claude Code after creating it.                                                  |
    | macOS: permission prompt on first use | For project-scoped `.mcp.json`, Claude Code will prompt for approval on first use. Accept to continue.                                  |
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Cursor">
    ### Requirements

    * [Cursor](https://cursor.com) IDE installed
    * Node.js v18+ with `npx` available on your PATH

    ### Quick Setup (Settings UI)

    Repeat these steps for each server you want to add:

    1. Open Cursor Settings (`Cmd + ,` on macOS / `Ctrl + ,` on Windows/Linux)
    2. Navigate to **Features > MCP**
    3. Click **+ Add New MCP Server**
    4. Enter the server details:

    | Server       | Name              | Command                                                                 |
    | ------------ | ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
    | SDK Docs     | `CameraRemoteSDK` | `npx mcp-remote https://sdk-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp`    |
    | Help Guides  | `CameraHelp`      | `npx mcp-remote https://camera-rag-agent-production.up.railway.app/mcp` |
    | Web API Docs | `CameraWebAPI`    | `npx mcp-remote https://crsdk.app/mcp`                                  |

    5. Set **Transport Type** to `command` (stdio)

    #### Global Scope

    For access across all projects, create or edit `~/.cursor/mcp.json` with the same JSON format above.

    | OS          | Path                                        |
    | ----------- | ------------------------------------------- |
    | **macOS**   | `~/.cursor/mcp.json`                        |
    | **Linux**   | `~/.cursor/mcp.json`                        |
    | **Windows** | `C:\Users\<your-username>\.cursor\mcp.json` |

    ***

    ### Using MCP Servers in Cursor

    1. Open a new chat in Cursor (`Cmd + L` / `Ctrl + L`)
    2. The MCP server tools will be available automatically
    3. Ask questions and Cursor will use the appropriate server tools to retrieve accurate information

    <Note>
      Cursor supports MCP servers using `stdio`, `sse`, and `streamable-http` transport types. The `stdio` transport (via `npx`) is the recommended approach.
    </Note>
