[Help](/help) / [Connect](/help/connect) / Claude Code Connect Your Website to Claude Code  Use Claude Code to build and manage your website through simple conversations. Once connected, you can create pages, write blogs, and manage your website effortlessly. You can even write scripts to pull data from various sources and generate programmatic pages.  Prerequisites

  * [Claude Code](https://claude.com/product/claude-code) installed on your computer
  * An active Hostbento project

Getting Server URL You'll need the MCP server URL to connect Claude Code. Login to the [Hostbento dashboard](https://app.hostbento.com) and navigate to **Settings > General** to find your unique MCP server URL. ![Find MCP Server URL](https://cdn.hostbento.com/images/hostbento-settings-general.webp) Add MCP Server to Claude Code Run the following command in your terminal to add the Hostbento MCP server:
    
    
    claude mcp add --transport http hostbento https://app.hostbento.com/mcp/v1/website-builder/

Replace `` with your actual project name. For example, if your project name is `hostbento`, the command will be:
    
    
    claude mcp add --transport http hostbento https://app.hostbento.com/mcp/v1/website-builder/hostbento

This adds the MCP server URL to your local Claude Code configuration. Next, you'll need to authorize Claude Code to access your Hostbento project. Authorize Claude Code

  1. Open the Claude Code terminal:
         
         claude

  2. Run the `/mcp` command to view your configured MCP servers. You should see the `hostbento` server you just added.
  3. Select the `hostbento` server, press Enter, and click **Authorize**. This will open your browser where you can select the project you want to connect and complete the authorization.

> Managing Multiple Hostbento Projects If you have multiple Hostbento projects, you can add multiple MCP servers with different names using the same command above. Just make sure to give each MCP server a unique name \(instead of `hostbento`\). When working on a website, make sure to only enable the corresponding MCP server for that project.
