⚙️ Getting Started
Installing via Smithery (Recommended)
To install Coderide MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y @smithery/cli install @PixdataOrg/coderide --client claude
Smithery Deployment Modes
CodeRide MCP supports dual-mode operation for both development and production use:
🔧 Development/Testing Mode (Mock)
Perfect for exploring features, testing integrations, or contributing to the project without needing a real CodeRide account.
How to activate: In the Smithery playground or configuration, either:
- Leave the
CODERIDE_API_KEYfield empty - Provide any placeholder value (e.g.,
mock-key,test, etc.)
What you get:
- All 9 tools available with realistic mock data
- Sample projects (ABC, XYZ) and tasks (ABC-1, ABC-2, etc.)
- Full MCP functionality for testing and development
- No real API calls - completely safe for experimentation
🚀 Production Mode (Real API)
For actual CodeRide users who want to integrate with their real projects and tasks.
How to activate: Provide a valid CodeRide API key that starts with CR_API_KEY_
What you get:
- Full integration with your CodeRide workspace
- Real project and task data
- Ability to update tasks and projects
- Complete workflow automation
Traditional MCP Configuration
For non-Smithery deployments, add this configuration to your MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"CodeRide": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@coderide/mcp"],
"env": {
"CODERIDE_API_KEY": "YOUR_CODERIDE_API_KEY_HERE"
}
}
}
}
Prerequisites:
- Node.js and npm: Ensure you have Node.js (which includes npm) installed.
- CodeRide Account & API Key (Production only): For production use, you'll need an active CodeRide account and API key from app.coderide.ai.
Once configured, your MCP client will automatically connect to the CodeRide MCP server with the appropriate mode based on your configuration.
🤖 Who is this for?
CodeRide MCP is for:
- Developers using AI coding assistants: Integrate your AI tools (Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, etc.) deeply with your CodeRide task management.
- Teams adopting AI-driven development: Standardize how AI agents access project information and contribute to tasks.
- Anyone building with MCP: Leverage a powerful example of an MCP server that connects to a real-world SaaS platform.

FAQ
- What is the CodeRide MCP server?
- CodeRide is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server profile on explainx.ai. MCP lets AI hosts (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor) call tools and resources through a standard interface; this page summarizes categories, install hints, and community ratings.
- How do MCP servers relate to agent skills?
- Skills are reusable instruction packages (often SKILL.md); MCP servers expose live capabilities. Teams frequently combine both—skills for workflows, MCP for APIs and data. See explainx.ai/skills and explainx.ai/mcp-servers for parallel directories.
- How are reviews shown for CodeRide?
- This profile displays 10 aggregated ratings (sample rows for discoverability plus signed-in user reviews). Average score is about 4.5 out of 5—verify behavior in your own environment before production use.
