# Quickstart

> Add an MCP server to Oriant, connect Claude Code to it, and see your first call in the log.

This guide uses Linear and Claude Code. Any [verified server](https://docs.oriant.app/mcp-gateway/connections.md) and [AI client](https://docs.oriant.app/mcp-gateway/connect-ai-clients.md) works the same way.

**1. Sign in to Oriant**

Open [app.oriant.app](https://app.oriant.app) and sign in. Oriant asks for a passkey or an authenticator code.

**2. Add a connection**

Open **MCP Connections**, click **Add connection** and pick **Linear**. Keep the name `linear`. The name is part of the address your AI clients use.

**3. Point Claude Code at the connection**

```bash theme={null}
claude mcp add --transport http linear https://app.oriant.app/mcp/linear
```

**4. Sign in from Claude Code**

Run `/mcp` in Claude Code and choose `linear`. Your browser opens: sign in to Oriant, approve Claude Code, then sign in to Linear with your own account.

**5. Make a call**

Ask Claude Code something that needs Linear, such as "list my open issues". The call appears on the connection's page in Oriant with the tool, its arguments and the outcome.

Next, [write an MCP Policy](https://docs.oriant.app/mcp-gateway/policies.md) to decide which tools each group may use.
