Connect from Your Laptop with Remote MCP

Remote MCP lets an agent on your laptop work with your TermSquad computers. From Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, it can start agents, run a Squad, manage scheduled tasks, edit files in shared workspaces and manage skills, within the access you grant.

Add the server

Use the TermSquad MCP server URL, https://mcp.termsquad.com/mcp.

# Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http termsquad https://mcp.termsquad.com/mcp

# Codex
codex mcp add termsquad --url https://mcp.termsquad.com/mcp
codex mcp login termsquad

In Claude Code, use /mcp to authenticate. In Cursor, add the same URL as an MCP server in your project’s .cursor/mcp.json, then connect from MCP settings.

Sign in and choose access

Your client opens a browser sign-in and the Connect to TermSquad page. Choose the computers and workspaces to share and expand the access permissions to review them. Read access is selected by default. Choosing all workspaces on a computer also includes workspaces you create later. Skills apply to the whole computer.

Keep your client waiting until the browser returns to it. If you see a connection error at localhost after approving, start the connection again from the client.

Manage connections

Open Settings → Integrations → MCP to see each connection by client name. Narrow its access or revoke it without reinstalling anything.

Safety limits

File tools only reach shared workspaces. Sensitive credential and configuration paths, symlinks and special files are always denied. Edits must match the latest version of a file, so a connected agent cannot overwrite changes it has not seen. Agents you start this way run on your computer, so you can close your laptop and check on them later.
