Hangar MCP guide

Connect any MCP client to your Hangarvibe workspace with 6 built-in tools.

What it is

Hangar MCP connects any MCP client — like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor — to your Hangarvibe cloud workspace. It adds 6 tools, all named hangar_*: hangar_project, hangar_task, hangar_agent, hangar_knowledge, hangar_memory, and hangar_api. Your agent uses these tools to read and write your projects, tasks, notes, and more.

Before you start

  • A Hangarvibe account with an active subscription.
  • An MCP client you want to connect, such as Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Open the dashboard at hangarvibe.com and go to API keys.

  2. 2

    Create a key. It is shown only once and starts with hg_live_. Copy it now.

  3. 3

    In the desktop app, open Settings → MCP and paste your key.

  4. 4

    Click Test connection to make sure the key works.

  5. 5

    In the deck header, click Connect project. This writes a .mcp.json file into your project folder.

  6. 6

    Restart your terminals so they pick up the new tools.

  7. 7

    In your MCP client, call the hangar_* tools to reach your workspace.

Try it

connect from any machine
claude mcp add --transport http hangarvibe https://hangarvibe.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer <your key>"

Good to know

  • The .mcp.json file holds your key, so Hangarvibe adds it to .gitignore. Keep it out of git.
  • Searches with hangar_knowledge and hangar_memory are metered and cost credits.
  • If a search fails and you retry right away, you are not billed twice.
