Why the wrapper?
This is a remote (HTTP) server and Claude Desktop only launches local processes, so mcp-remote proxies the connection. It will open a browser window if the server needs OAuth.
Restart Claude Desktop
The tools appear under the 🔌 menu once the app reloads.

Connect

This is a hosted remote MCP server: there is nothing to install. Address: https://mcp.socialtoai.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). In ChatGPT and Claude's apps you paste the address and sign in, with no key; every other client authenticates with an API key. Create a key in the console; it is shown once, when it is created. Wherever a key goes below there is the environment variable SOCIALTOAI_KEY or a placeholder.

Claude Code

Where: Terminal

Create a key in the console and export it as SOCIALTOAI_KEY.
