Summary

  • Remove incorrect hosted endpoint (URL + SSE) config for Claude Desktop — claude_desktop_config.json only supports local stdio servers
  • Add warning callout explaining the limitation
  • Add Docker stdio config as an alternative to CLI
  • Fix mcp-hosted.md prerequisites to not list Claude Desktop as SSE-compatible

Resolves TKC-5601

Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json only supports local stdio
servers (command + args), not remote URL/SSE configs. Replace the
incorrect hosted endpoint example with CLI and Docker stdio options,
and add a warning callout explaining the limitation.

Also fix mcp-hosted.md prerequisites to not list Claude Desktop as a
client that supports remote MCP via config file.

LGTM @niyiomotoso - I think we also need to update the corresponding in-app examples shown in the Testkube MCP Server tab!?
