Better Filings

Connect

Claude Code

Use email verification with your agent, then start a fresh Claude Code session. No browser consent is required for this direct path.

CLI setup

For shell access, start with the CLI installation guide. Give your agent this request:

Read https://betterfilings.com/cli/setup, install Better Filings, and verify it works. Set up local document tools only when needed.

The instructions below configure the hosted MCP connection.

Ask your agent

Connect Better Filings using https://betterfilings.com/connect/claude-code and the public https://betterfilings.com/install.mjs helper. Prefer auth-request with my email, then ask me to paste the short-lived emailed code here. Pass it only to auth-verify --otp-stdin without echoing, retaining, logging, or putting it in a command argument. Configure the hosted remote MCP connection with the helper-backed dynamic Authorization header, reuse a matching connection, and do not install a local research server or separate research CLI. After verification, tell me to start a fresh Claude Code session. Then call research_help and find Toyota’s three latest filings.

Setup

  1. Have Claude Code read this page, or download the inspectable helper with Node.js 18 or newer.
  2. Replace ADDRESS with your email and run auth-request. Retrieve the six-digit code from your inbox.
  3. Paste the short-lived code to the agent. It passes the code only to auth-verify through stdin, without opening a separate terminal UI or putting it in a command argument, shell history, source file, URL, or log.
  4. Verification stores user-only credentials and configures the hosted remote MCP endpoint with a dynamic Authorization header. It does not run a local research server, and this path has no browser consent step.
  5. Start a fresh Claude Code session so it discovers the tools.
curl --fail --show-error --location https://betterfilings.com/install.mjs --output better-filings-install.mjs
node better-filings-install.mjs auth-request --client claude-code --email ADDRESS
node better-filings-install.mjs auth-verify --client claude-code --otp-stdin

Environment: Production

MCP server: https://betterfilings.com/mcp

Check the connection

Call research_help, resolve Toyota’s Japan listing, and return its three latest filings with dates and source links. Configuration alone does not confirm access.

If a fresh session cannot expose MCP tools, reopen its MCP connection settings and start a fresh session. Run status for plan/quota/payment state, upgrade for a human-openable checkout link, or logout to revoke local access; pass the same --environment staging flag when using staging. The legacy `node better-filings-install.mjs --client claude-code` native OAuth flow remains available for compatibility and may open browser sign-in and consent.
