install Monarch MCP Server on Claude Desktop

Requires the runtime declared in the upstream repo — check the README before running. Claude Desktop only speaks stdio locally; HTTP servers are wrapped via npx mcp-remote automatically. Paste the config below, then follow the reload step to register Monarch MCP Server.

paste into
macos: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "monarch-money": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "monarch-mcp-jamiew"
      ],
      "env": {
        "MONARCH_EMAIL": "your-email@example.com",
        "MONARCH_PASSWORD": "your-password",
        "MONARCH_MFA_SECRET": "your-mfa-secret-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
then: Quit Claude Desktop completely (Cmd/Ctrl+Q) and reopen it.
