Integrate AgenticData with Claude via MCP

Three steps. Three minutes. Your agent can now enrich contacts.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard from Anthropic that lets AI agents call external tools without bespoke wrapper code. AgenticData ships a first-class MCP server, so any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Cursor, LangChain — can call enrich() and search() directly.

1. Install the MCP server

npm install -g @dataapi/mcp-server

2. Add to Claude Desktop config

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dataapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@dataapi/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "DATAAPI_KEY": "ADATA_live_xxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Claude

You'll see a 🔌 plug icon. AgenticData exposes two tools:

enrich(email | linkedin | domain) — returns full person + company record
search(filters) — returns up to 100 matching records

Example prompts

> "Enrich sundar@google.com and tell me his tenure at Google."

> "Find 20 VPs of Engineering in Series B fintechs based in NYC, and
   draft a cold email referencing each company's funding round."

Use cases

Lead research — agents qualify leads in real time
Hiring — pull candidate context inside Claude
Sales intelligence — enrich an account before a call

Troubleshooting

If Claude doesn't see the tools, check tail -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log. Most issues are typos in the JSON config or a stale DATAAPI_KEY.
