MCP Access
Connect Claude Desktop (or any MCP-aware client) to InnoTrack.
Download bundle
The InnoTrack innovations MCP server is distributed as an
.mcpb bundle. Download it here, then drop it on
Claude Desktop to install.
Install in Claude Desktop
Three steps. You only need to do this once per device.
-
Download the bundle using the button above. Save it somewhere you'll find it (Downloads is fine).
-
Drag the
.mcpbfile onto Claude Desktop. The installer will appear and ask you to confirm the install. -
Paste your InnoTrack API key into the
INNOTRACK_API_KEYfield the installer prompts for. Generate one (or regenerate the existing one) using the API key panel above. TheGatekeeper base URLis pre-filled with this site's address — leave it as-is unless you're connecting to a non-production environment. -
Verify in Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors. The InnoTrack Innovations entry should appear with a green connected status.
API key
Your InnoTrack API key is how the MCP server identifies you on every request. It is the only thing standing between an attacker and write access to InnoTrack under your identity. Generate one below, then paste it into Claude Desktop's installer.
You don't have an API key yet. Generate one to connect Claude Desktop.
Regenerating invalidates the existing key immediately. Any Claude Desktop install using the old key will need the new value.
Verify your connection
Paste your API key here to confirm it authenticates against this InnoTrack environment. This runs the exact same check Claude Desktop does on every call — so a wrong key or an unreachable gatekeeper shows up here with a clear reason, instead of failing silently inside Claude Desktop. Your key is sent over HTTPS to this site only and is never stored.
