> If you haven't installed Claude Code yet, run `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code` or see the [Claude Code docs](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code).

### Complete prerequisites

Follow the [Prerequisites](/agentic-ai-hub/mcp/prerequisites) guide to install Python, uvx, and get your Paradex private key.

### Add the Paradex MCP server

Run this command in your terminal:

```bash
claude mcp add paradex uvx mcp-paradex \
  -e PARADEX_ENVIRONMENT=prod \
  -e PARADEX_ACCOUNT_PRIVATE_KEY=your_private_key_here
```

Replace `your_private_key_here` with your actual key.

### Confirm the server is registered

```bash
claude mcp list
```

### Verify it's working

Ask your AI assistant:

> "What markets are available on Paradex?"

If you get a list of trading pairs, you're connected.

To test trading access, ask:

> "Show me my Paradex account summary."
