Quick start for installing Navixy User MCP

AI client features change frequently. If these steps don't match your version of Claude Desktop, consult the official documentation.

Follow these instructions to start using Navixy MCP Server in Claude Desktop:

1

Open the Claude Desktop configuration file

1. Open Claude Desktop.

2. Go to Settings and select Developer.

3. Select Edit Config.

Claude Desktop opens claude_desktop_config.json in your default text editor.

2

Add Navixy MCP Server

If the file is empty, paste the following text into the file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "navixy-user": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://platform.mcp.navixy.com/user/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

If the file already contains preferences, add an mcpServers block inside the existing object:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "navixy-user": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://platform.mcp.navixy.com/user/mcp"
      ]
    }
  },
  ... //preferences and other data

Save the file.

3

Restart Claude Desktop

Quit Claude Desktop completely (≡ → Files → Exit) and open it again. Simply closing the window isn't enough, as the configuration is read on startup.

4

Connect your Navixy account

A Navixy login page automatically opens in your browser. Log in with your Navixy account credentials.

5

Ask your first question

Try this prompt to confirm the connection is working:

Which of my trackers are online right now in Navixy?

Claude retrieves the current status of your trackers directly from your Navixy account and returns the result. If you see your actual tracker data, the connection is working correctly.
