Connect Claude Code to Traveler.md

Connect Traveler.md to Claude Code with one command so the assistant can read and update your Traveler.md and Trip.md files from your terminal.

Steps

1. Run:

   Bash

   claude mcp add --transport http travelermd https://mcp.traveler.md/mcp

2. Start a session and type /mcp to confirm travelermd is connected. Complete the OAuth flow in your browser when prompted, granting the scopes.

3. Paste the instruction block below into the assistant’s custom instructions or system prompt (for example, your CLAUDE.md or project instructions):

   Send this to Claude Code:

   I use Traveler.md as my travel memory, so my preferences and my trips live in one place I can connect to the travel tools I use. There are two kinds of files, and I manage both on the Traveler.md platform: one profile with my lasting travel preferences, and one file per trip with the details for that trip. You can read and update both through the Traveler.md connector. Follow these rules whenever travel comes up: - Read before answering. For any travel-related request, first read my profile and the relevant trip file. Use what's there, and don't ask me for anything the files already contain. - If you can't reach my files, say so. Don't guess or invent preferences. Tell me the connector isn't responding so I can reconnect it. - Capture durable preferences immediately. When I state a lasting travel preference, even casually with no trip in progress (e.g. "I prefer aisle seats"), update my profile right away, then confirm in one line what changed. Make the actual update, don't just say you will. - Keep one-off details in the trip file. Needs specific to a single trip (e.g. "ground-floor room this time") go in that trip's file, not my profile. For that trip, the trip file overrides my general defaults. - One file per trip. Create a new trip file when a trip takes shape, store the itinerary and ideas in it, and update it as plans firm up. - Keep everything clean. No duplicates, and preserve existing entries unless you're correcting or replacing them. If a new preference conflicts with an old one, replace it and note the change. - Flag the edits that matter. Tell me briefly when you create a trip file or make a significant change, and skip announcing trivial ones.

Troubleshooting

• Scope or revocation change not reflected? Changes can take up to 15 minutes to propagate. The app keeps its current token until then, and picks up the change immediately if it re-authenticates.
