Prerequisites
A Clonra account with AI features enabled
Claude Code installed on your computer
Step 1: Create an API key
Log in to Clonra and go to Profile
Scroll to the API Keys section
Click Create API Key
Give it a name like "Claude Code"
Optionally set an expiration date
Click Create
Important: Copy your API key immediately. It starts with clnr_ and is only shown once. If you lose it, you'll need to create a new one.
Step 2: Add Clonra to Claude Code
Open your Claude Code MCP configuration file and add the Clonra server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"clonra": {
"url": "https://clonra.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
}
}
}
}
Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with the API key you copied.
Step 3: Restart Claude Code
Restart Claude Code to load the new configuration. You should see Clonra's tools become available.
Step 4: Test the connection
Try asking Claude Code something like:
"List my recent Clonra logs"
or
"Create a new Clonra log about the feature I just finished"
If Claude can retrieve or create data, you're all set.
Troubleshooting
"Authentication failed" error
Check that your API key is correct and hasn't expired
Make sure there are no extra spaces in the key
"Record not found" errors
MCP can only access your own data — you can't view other users' logs
Tools not appearing
Restart Claude Code after updating the configuration
Check that the JSON syntax is valid
Security tips
Create separate API keys for different tools or devices
Set expiration dates for keys you won't need long-term
Revoke keys you're no longer using
