Connect Your Assistant

One install — your AI calls ChatSwap automatically.

ChatSwap exposes its marketplace to any AI agent that speaks the Model Context Protocol. Pick your client below and paste the snippet — that's the whole setup. Once it's connected, asking your assistant something like "find me a snowboard near 94110" or "post my couch for sale" will route through ChatSwap.

Claude Desktop (Mac, Windows, Linux) uses a JSON config file. Paste the snippet below into yours and restart the app.

  1. 1.
    Open the Claude config file:
    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
    • Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  2. 2.
    If the file doesn't exist yet, create it. If it does, merge themcpServersentry into your existing config (don't overwrite your other servers).
  3. 3.
    Quit and relaunch Claude Desktop.
