How to Use the Anyscale MCP in Claude Code

Q: How do I add the Anyscale MCP Server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add --transport http anyscale-mcp -- in your terminal. This saves the configuration directly to your local /.claude.json file.

Q: Can I monitor Anyscale batch jobs using Claude Code?

Yes. Claude Code uses the listjobs tool to check the status of active cluster runs and outputs the results straight to your terminal.

Q: Does Claude Code support Anyscale text embeddings?

Yes. Claude Code calls the generateembeddings tool to convert text inputs into vector representations, making it easy to test indexing scripts from the command line.

Query Anyscale models and monitor cluster jobs directly from your terminal with Claude Code.

Perplexity

Terminal-based model querying with this MCP Server

The `chat_completion` tool sends structured chat messages to your Anyscale endpoints directly from your CLI. Claude Code runs this tool to test model behavior or generate script logic without opening a browser. When you need simpler instruct outputs, the `text_completion` tool handles raw text generation tasks. This allows your terminal agent to parse and format quick outputs inside your shell scripts.

Monitor Anyscale services directly in your shell

The `list_services` tool lists all active deployments on your cluster to verify system health. Claude Code runs this check using the MCP toolset inside your CI/CD pipelines to ensure endpoints are live before running integration tests. For detailed debugging, the `get_service` tool fetches configuration details for a specific deployment. This lets your terminal agent diagnose routing issues or resource constraints directly from your SSH session.

Manage batch training jobs via Claude Code

The `list_jobs` tool tracks active training runs and batch processing pipelines on your infrastructure. Claude Code queries this list to monitor long-running cluster operations during deployment cycles. Combined with the `list_models` tool, your agent checks when a new fine-tuned model becomes available. This lets you automate model promotion steps directly within your terminal workspace.

Setup guide

Set up Anyscale MCP in Claude Code

Prerequisites

Claude Code CLI installed (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Run the add command

Open your terminal and run the command shown on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com. Use --scope user to make it available across all projects.
2

Verify the connection

Start a Claude Code session and type /mcp to list connected servers. You should see anyscale-mcp with a green status indicator.
