## What it does

Tolgee’s MCP server gives an AI coding assistant access to project translations. It can search keys, create or update translations, manage languages, and trigger machine translation. This keeps localization tasks in the editor.

The server connects over HTTP. In Claude Code, add it as `tolgee` with `claude mcp add --transport http tolgee https://app.tolgee.io/mcp/developer`. It works with translations in Tolgee, so the localization platform remains part of the workflow.
