Official Claude Connector

Magic Patterns is available as an official Connector directly in Claude.ai. This is the easiest way to get started - no configuration required.

Open Claude.ai and navigate to Connectors

In Claude.ai, click on the Connectors icon or navigate to your integrations settings.
Find Magic Patterns

Search for “Magic Patterns” in the available connectors and click to connect.
Authorize and start using

Complete the authorization flow, and you’re ready to use Magic Patterns directly in Claude conversations.

For tools like Cursor or Claude Code, you can configure the Magic Patterns MCP server manually.

Add to your MCP config

Create a .cursor/mcp.json in your project for project-specific tools. Cursor instructions here.
```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "magic-patterns": {
      "url": "https://mcp.magicpatterns.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```
Verify MCP is enabled

IMPORTANT: If Cursor browses the web instead of using the MCP tools, it means it’s not working! Ensure the MCP is actually turned on and not globally ignored. You can check this in Cursor’s settings. Check “magic-patterns” to on!
Reference your designs

Once connected, you can prompt Cursor to access a specific design. For example:
```
Integrate this design: https://www.magicpatterns.com/c/abcd into my project
```

Ensure that all the Tools are enabled in Cursor’s settings. Go to Cursor > Settings > Cursor Settings > MCP & Tools

Add Magic Patterns MCP

Run the following command to add the Magic Patterns MCP server:
```
claude mcp add --transport http magic-patterns https://mcp.magicpatterns.com/mcp
```
Authenticate

Run /mcp inside Claude Code to trigger the OAuth authentication that enables the Magic Patterns Remote MCP Server.
Reference your designs

Once connected, you can prompt Claude Code to access a specific design. For example:
```
Integrate this design: https://www.magicpatterns.com/c/abcd into my project
```
