ProductNow — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Connects ProductNow shared company context to your AI assistant over remote HTTP. Search team records and manage workspace documents directly from the chat.
claude mcp add --transport http productnow https://api.productnow-prod.com/mcpWhat ProductNow does
This remote service operates via Streamable HTTP at https://api.productnow-prod.com/mcp. It exposes corporate knowledge to your coding assistant. Agents can query workspace records for grounded excerpts with citation anchors. The remember tool automatically files notes or architectural decisions into the right folders in the background.
The integration exposes 18 tools for workspace upkeep. These commands handle creating folders, moving files, or replying to discussion threads. Some capabilities, such as shareable knowledge packs, depend on organization permissions.
Authentication relies on OAuth 2.0 via Auth0 with the mcp:use scope. On first contact, the server issues a 401 challenge that triggers a browser login. Without client support for remote Streamable HTTP and OAuth discovery, the connection will fail.
