# Remote MCP

> Connect any AI client to Eka.care in minutes — no installation required.

The remote MCP server is hosted by Eka.care at `https://mcp.eka.care/mcp`. You don't install anything — just point your AI client at this URL and sign in with your Eka.care account.

**Server URL:** `https://mcp.eka.care/mcp`

<Info>
  **Prerequisite:** An active [Eka.care](https://eka.care) account. On first connect, your AI client will open a browser window for OAuth login.

      <Step title="Open Settings">
        In Claude Desktop, click **Settings** → **Connectors** → **Add custom connector**
      </Step>

      <Step title="Enter server details">
        * Name: `Eka Care`
        * URL: `https://mcp.eka.care/mcp`
      </Step>

      <Step title="Add and authenticate">
        Click **Add**, then sign in with your Eka.care account when prompted.
      </Step>

## Verify the Connection

```text theme={null}
Search for patient [name] in my clinic
```

You should see the AI call the `search_patients` tool and return results from your Eka.care account.
