Assistants (MCP)

Set up Claude Code

Connect Claude Code on your Mac to Bunplan by pasting the setup Bunplan copies for you.

Claude Code connects to Bunplan as a local MCP server. The setup already holds the right location on your Mac, so there's nothing to look up.

Before you start

  • Bunplan and Claude Code are both installed on this Mac.
  • You have Bunplan Plus, or the free trial.

Add Bunplan to Claude Code

  1. Open Bunplan, choose Bunplan → Settings, and click Assistants.
  2. Under Access, choose Read only or Read & write. See Access and Plus.
  3. Click Copy setup for other apps. Bunplan says "Setup copied".
  4. Paste into a text editor. The last line is the command for Claude Code. It starts with claude mcp add and names the server bunplan.
  5. Copy that line, paste it into Terminal, and press Return.

Try it

Start Claude Code and ask:

  • "What's on my plan today in Bunplan?"
  • "Add three tasks for my essay to Bunplan, one a day from tomorrow."

To check the connection, type /mcp in Claude Code. Bunplan is listed as bunplan.

Change or remove access

  • To change what Claude Code may do, choose another access level in Bunplan → Settings → Assistants. It applies from the next request.
  • To stop it for now, choose Off.
  • To remove Bunplan from Claude Code, run claude mcp remove bunplan in Terminal.

Every change Claude Code makes is listed in Bunplan → Settings → Assistants, with Undo. See Activity and Undo.

If it doesn't work
