Prerequisites

See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:

NIMBLE_CLIENT_ID, NIMBLE_CLIENT_SECRET, NIMBLE_REFRESH_TOKEN

Step 1 — Get credentials

This connector wraps the Nimble REST API v1 (app.nimble.com/api/v1).

Setup — OAuth2 refresh flow:

  1. Sign in to https://app.nimble.com → Settings → Integrations → API → Create OAuth app.
  2. Note the client_id, client_secret, and complete the OAuth dance at https://app.nimble.com/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=...&redirect_uri=...&scope=... to get an authorization code.
  3. Exchange for tokens: POST https://app.nimble.com/oauth/token?grant_type=authorization_code&code=...&client_id=...&client_secret=...&redirect_uri=....
  4. Save the refresh_token. Set NIMBLE_CLIENT_ID, NIMBLE_CLIENT_SECRET, NIMBLE_REFRESH_TOKEN.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Install the adapter

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Add the connector in Claude

Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide shows YOUR_SERVER_ID.

Recommended path — works on claude.ai web without editing any config file.

  1. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors.
  2. Click +, then Add custom connector.
  3. Enter a name, e.g. Nimble, and the remote MCP server URL https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID, then click Add.
  4. Click Connect and sign in to AnythingMCP (OAuth) to allow access.
