    How to connect

    How to connect Tolgee to Claude

    https://app.tolgee.io/mcp/developer

    1. Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
    2. Go to Settings → Connectors.
    3. Click Add custom connector.
    4. Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
    5. In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.

    Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.

    Server tool list (22)

    Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

    get_batch_job_statusGet the status of a batch job (e.g. machine translation) by its ID. Use to poll for completion.
    machine_translateStart machine translation for specified keys into target languages. Returns a batch job ID — use get_batch_job_status to poll for completion.
    store_big_metaStore key relationships so Tolgee can use translations of related keys as context during machine translation, producing more consistent results. Keys that appear near each other in source code (e.g. on the same page or component) should be stored as related.
    list_branchesList branches in a Tolgee project. Returns up to 100 results per page. Only available for projects with branching enabled (enterprise feature).
    create_branchCreate a new branch in a Tolgee project by forking from an existing branch. Only available for projects with branching enabled (enterprise feature).
    delete_branchDelete a branch from a Tolgee project. IMPORTANT: This is a destructive operation. The AI assistant should always confirm with the user before calling this tool.
    list_keysList translation keys in a Tolgee project. Returns up to 100 keys per page. Use search_keys to find specific keys by name or translation text.
    search_keysSearch for translation keys in a Tolgee project by name or translation text. Returns up to 50 matching keys per page. Note: namespace and tags filtering is not yet supported — filter results client-side if needed.
    create_keysCreate translation keys in a Tolgee project with optional translations and tags. Keys that already exist are silently skipped — their translations and tags are not updated. Use update_key and set_translation to modify existing keys.
    get_keyGet a translation key's metadata (name, namespace, description) by its name. To get the key's translations, use get_translations.
    update_keyUpdate an existing translation key's name, namespace, or description
    delete_keysDelete translation keys from a Tolgee project. IMPORTANT: This is a destructive operation. The AI assistant should always confirm with the user before calling this tool.
    list_languagesList all languages configured for a Tolgee project. Returns up to 1000 results per page.
    create_languageAdd a new language to a Tolgee project
    list_namespacesList all namespaces in a Tolgee project. Namespaces organize translation keys into logical groups (e.g. by feature, page, or module).
    list_projectsList Tolgee projects accessible to the current user. Returns up to 100 results per page.
    create_projectCreate a new Tolgee project with initial languages
    get_project_language_statisticsGet translation status and progress for each language in a project. Returns per-language statistics including translated, reviewed, and untranslated percentages.
    list_tagsList all tags used in a Tolgee project. Returns up to 1000 results per page.
    tag_keysAdd tags to translation keys. Creates tags if they don't exist.
    get_translationsGet translations for a specific key in a Tolgee project. Returns translations in all project languages, or only the specified languages if provided.
    set_translationSet or update translations for a key in one or more languages. The key must already exist — use create_keys to create it first.
