Studio Pro MCP Server
Introduction
This feature is available in Studio Pro 11.10 and above.
To use Studio Pro MCP Server, an internet connection and signing in to Studio Pro are required.
Studio Pro MCP Server enables you to leverage Maia's capabilities directly from external clients, including AI coding assistants, agents, and other MCP-based LLM tools.
It has the following key highlights:
- Full Maia feature parity — The MCP Server exposes the same capabilities that Maia offers within Studio Pro.
- Live updates — Any changes made through Maia via the MCP Server are reflected in real time within Studio Pro.
Enabling the MCP Server
To enable the MCP Server, navigate to Preferences > Maia > MCP Server, and check Enable MCP Server. You can also configure the port in this menu.
Connecting External Clients
Once enabled, you can connect external clients to the MCP Server. For example, to add it to Claude Code, run the following command:
claude mcp add <name> --transport http http://localhost:<port>/mcp
Replace <name> with your preferred server name and <port> with the port configured in Preferences.
