Claude Code Configuration

This guide shows you how to configure the Probo MCP Server with Claude Code, Anthropic’s official CLI tool, enabling Claude to interact with your compliance data directly from the command line.

Prerequisites

• Claude Code CLI installed (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
• A running Probo instance with API access

Endpoint

Choose the endpoint for your Probo environment:

Environment	MCP URL
Probo US	https://us.probo.com/api/mcp/v1
Probo EU	https://eu.probo.com/api/mcp/v1
Custom	https://your-probo-instance.com/api/mcp/v1

The /v1 segment is required.

Add the Probo MCP Server

Run the following command:

claude mcp add --transport http probo https://your-probo-instance.com/api/mcp/v1

Replace https://your-probo-instance.com/api/mcp/v1 with your Probo instance URL.

On first use, Claude Code will open a browser window to authorize access to your Probo instance via OAuth — log in and click Authorize. No token generation or configuration needed.

Verify the Connection

List your configured MCP servers:

claude mcp list

You should see probo in the list. Then start Claude Code and ask:

"List all organizations I have access to"

Claude should use the listOrganizations tool and return your organizations.

Using Claude Code with Probo

Interactive Mode

claude

Claude loads the Probo MCP server automatically. You can have a continuous conversation:

> List all third parties
> Add a new risk for data breaches
> Update the third-party security measure to implemented

Single Command Mode

claude "List all open nonconformities"

Example Commands

Managing Risks

You: "Show me all risks with a residual risk score above 15"

Claude: Let me fetch those high-risk items.
[Uses listRisks tool with filtering]

Found 3 high-risk items:
1. Third-party security breach (Score: 20)
2. Data center failure (Score: 18)
3. Insider threat (Score: 16)

Adding Third Parties

You: "Add a third party named 'SecureCloud' that provides backup services"

Claude: I'll add that third party now.
[Uses addThirdParty tool]

Successfully added SecureCloud as a third party.

Multiple Probo Instances

To connect to additional environments (e.g. staging, a different region), add them with distinct names:

claude mcp add --transport http probo-staging https://staging.probo.com/api/mcp/v1

Each instance prompts its own OAuth authorization on first use.

Automation Scripts

Batch Operations Script

update-compliance.sh

#!/bin/bash
claude << EOF
Connect to Probo and:
1. List all risks with status 'open'
2. For each risk, check if mitigation measures are in place
3. Update risk status to 'mitigated' where appropriate
4. Generate a summary report
EOF

Daily Compliance Check

daily-check.sh

#!/bin/bash
claude "Generate a compliance status report including:
- Number of open nonconformities
- Risks with scores above 15
- Overdue obligations
- In-progress audits"

CI/CD Integration

.github/workflows/compliance-check.yml

name: Compliance Check

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 9 * * 1" # Every Monday at 9 AM

jobs:
  check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Check Compliance
        run: |
          npx -y @anthropic-ai/claude-code "Review current compliance status and report any critical issues"
        env:
          ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}

Troubleshooting

MCP Server Not Found

# List configured servers
claude mcp list

# Remove and re-add if needed
claude mcp remove probo
claude mcp add --transport http probo https://your-probo-instance.com/api/mcp/v1

Debug Mode

claude --debug
