Claude Code

.mcp.json in your project root, or ~/.claude.json globally:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ovhcloud": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@aidalinfo/ovhcloud-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OVH_APPLICATION_KEY": "your_app_key",
        "OVH_APPLICATION_SECRET": "your_app_secret",
        "OVH_CONSUMER_KEY": "your_consumer_key"
      }
    }
  }
}
