Getting Started

Quick Start

A Driver account and at least one codebase connected at app.driverai.com.

Prefer the terminal? Install the Driver CLI to manage codebases, indexing, and your organization.

Claude Code

Create .mcp.json in your project root:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "driver-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.us1.driverai.com/mcp/v1"
    }
  }
}

Start Claude Code. Run /mcp and press Enter twice. A browser opens. Log in with your Driver credentials.

Cursor

Create .cursor/mcp.json in your project root with the same configuration.

In the menu bar, go to Cursor > Settings > Cursor Settings. Select Tools & MCP. Enable driver-mcp with the toggle, then click Connect.

VS Code + Copilot

Install the GitHub Copilot and GitHub Copilot Chat extensions. Enable MCP in your workspace settings.

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root:

json
{
  "servers": {
    "driver-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.us1.driverai.com/mcp/v1"
    }
  }
}

Open the file and click Start. Accept the prompts to open driverai.com, then log in.

Try It

Ask your agent:

  • "What codebases are available in Driver?"
  • "Get oriented with [your-codebase]"
  • "How does [feature] work in [codebase]?"
  • "How has [feature] evolved over time?"

Tip: Start every session by asking your agent to get oriented with your codebase. This loads the architecture overview and onboarding guide, making the agent dramatically more effective.
