In Claude Desktop, click the hammer icon (tools) at the bottom of the chat. You should see tools starting with nometria_ in the list:

nometria_deploy

and more

If you see these, you’re all set.

What you can do

Once set up, just ask Claude in plain English:

What you say	What happens
”Deploy my app”	Builds and deploys to production
”Create a preview”	Creates a free staging URL (2 hours)
“Check my deployment status”	Shows status, URL, and instance info
”Show all my apps”	Lists everything you’ve deployed
”Set up this project for Nometria”	Creates config file with auto-detected settings
”Add a custom domain”	Adds your domain to the app
”Upgrade my instance to 8gb”	Scales up your server
”Run a security scan”	AI-powered security audit

Troubleshooting

I don't see the hammer icon

Make sure you have Claude Desktop version 1.0 or later. Update Claude Desktop from claude.ai/download.

Tools don't appear after setup

Make sure you fully quit Claude Desktop (Cmd + Q on Mac, not just close the window)
Reopen Claude Desktop
If tools still don’t appear, the config file might be in the wrong location. See the “Manual” tab above.

Node.js or npx not found

The MCP server requires Node.js 18 or later. Download it from nodejs.org — pick the LTS version and run the installer.After installing Node.js, restart Claude Desktop.

I get 'Unauthorized' errors

Your API key may be expired. Generate a new one at nometria.com/settings/api-keys and tell Claude the new key.
