Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elaan": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@elaanio/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ELAAN_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add elaan --env ELAAN_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y @elaanio/mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elaan": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@elaanio/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ELAAN_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "elaan": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@elaanio/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ELAAN_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

ELAAN_API_KEY secret required env
Elaan service key (sk_...) from console.elaan.io. Read from the environment only, never passed as a tool argument.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Elaan MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: ELAAN_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.3) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

@elaanio/mcp

A Model Context Protocol server for Elaan, so the tedious half of a notification integration happens in your editor instead of by hand in a console: creating notification types, writing templates for three channels, setting up per-tenant brands, and working out why a message did not arrive.

Documentation: elaan.io/docs.html

Setup

Create a service key (sk_…) in the console, then add the server to your assistant's MCP config. Nothing to install — npx fetches it on first run.

Claude Code — .mcp.json in your project, or ~/.claude.json for every project:

"mcpServers": { "elaan": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@elaanio/mcp"], "env": { "ELAAN_API_KEY": "sk_..." } } } }

Cursor — the same block in .cursor/mcp.json. Most other MCP clients take the same shape.

Self-hosting Elaan? Point it at your own install:

"env": {

"ELAAN_API_KEY": "sk_...", "ELAAN_API_BASE": "https://elaan.internal.example.com/v1" }

What it can do

Area	Tools
Notification types	list, get, create, update (channel defaults, variables, opt-out policy), delete, restore
Templates	list, get, create, update, delete across email / inbox / push; preview an email render; report templates affected by a type's variables
Brands	list, create, update (values and sender), delete
Contacts	list, get, create, read and set preferences
Sending	trigger a notification to 1–100 recipients
Debugging	event status with per-channel outcomes, the delivery log with filters, aggregate stats

Ask for what you want and let it do the fan-out:

Create an order_shipped type that goes to email and the inbox, with an order_id variable, then

write both templates using our acme brand.

A customer says they never got their shipping email. Event id is 01J… — what happened?

What it deliberately cannot do

Transport credentials. /v1/email-transport and /v1/push-transport are not exposed at all. They hold SMTP passwords and FCM service accounts, and an agent has no business reading or rotating them. Configure those in the console.

See your API key. It is read from the environment, never accepted as a tool argument, because arguments are model-visible and end up in transcripts.

Note that delete_template is a hard delete with no restore, while delete_notification_type is soft and reversible with restore_notification_type. trigger_notification sends real messages.

Development

pnpm install

pnpm --filter @elaanio/mcp build pnpm --filter @elaanio/mcp test # spawns the server, speaks JSON-RPC to a stub API

The test drives the real binary over stdio rather than importing the source, which is how it caught a zod v4 behaviour that made every create_notification_type call fail before it left the process.
