Smithery Ai Cli

Connects Claude to 100K+ tools and services through the Smithery marketplace using MCP protocol. You can search for integrations, spin up managed connections to things like GitHub, Slack, Notion, or databases, then call their APIs directly from chat. The OAuth and credential handling runs server-side, so you get long-lived sessions without storing tokens locally. Scoped service tokens let you lock down which connections and methods an agent can touch, which matters if you're building something that needs guardrails. Main workflow is search, add a server by URL, authenticate once in browser, then list and call tools by qualified name. Designed for agent use cases where you want Claude to interact with external services without manual API wrangling.
