From the repository
Install and configure the server by adding it as an MCP server in your client (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or OpenAI Codex). Provide your Redmine base URL and API key via environment variables (REDMINE_BASE_URL and REDMINE_API_KEY) or CLI flags (--url, --api-key). The server runs via npx -y @chspower1/mcp-for-redmine@latest using stdio transport.
