Generating Your MCP Credentials
MCP access requires an active trial, an active Enterprise subscription, or specific enablement for your workspace. You must have the Owner, Admin, or Member role; Viewer and Collaborator roles cannot access MCP.
Step 1: Click your profile in the top right corner and go to Profile & Preferences. Click the MCP Client tab.
Step 2: Click Add MCP Client. Optionally add a display name, then select Claude as the AI provider from the dropdown. Click Generate MCP Client.
Step 3: Your MCP client has been created. Click Copy and Close to save your Client Secret, you will not be able to see it again after closing this dialog.
Step 4: After closing, your MCP client details (name, provider, Client ID, and MCP server URL) will be available in the MCP Client tab.
Connecting Claude
Step 1: In Claude, go to Customize and click Connectors. Click Add, then Add custom connector.
Step 2: Fill in the connector fields using the credentials generated in DevStats: name and MCP server URL (https://app.devstats.com/mcp). Click Continue.
Select Sign in now and Use your own OAuth client, fill in Client ID and Client Secret, and click Add.
Step 3: On the connector you just created, click Connect.
Step 4: A DevStats authorization screen will appear. Click Authorize to allow the connection.
Step 5: Once authorized, the connector will show as connected.
Tip: In Tool permissions, enable Always allow to prevent Claude from asking for permission on every request.
That's it. You can now ask Claude questions about your DevStats workspace, such as:
- "What is the PR Cycle Time for my team in the last 30 days?"
- "List all players in the Engineering squad."
- "Show me the DORA snapshot for this week."
