# How to connect Claude Code

> Connect Anthropic's terminal coding agent to Orbit.

Claude Code connects to Orbit via a config file or a single CLI command. Once connected, your architecture decisions and context persist across coding sessions.

## Quickest: CLI

```bash theme={null}
claude mcp add orbit https://app.orbitagents.xyz/api/public/mcp/[your-key]
```

## Or: config file

Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json` or `~/.claude/config.json`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orbit": {
      "url": "https://app.orbitagents.xyz/api/public/mcp/[your-key]"
    }
  }
}
```

## What happens

Claude Code reads your active decisions before every coding session — so architecture choices, naming conventions, and "don't touch this module" rules persist automatically across sessions. It files code outputs, session summaries, and decisions to your Vault.

## Best for

Solo developers running Claude Code on a codebase who want architectural context to survive between sessions without re-explaining everything each time.
