yes this works, however this obliges me to sign into Kapa and share my google profile there, which I don't like at all: there should be no strings attached for your customers reading your documentation.

Hi,

You do not need an API key. You need to provide a valid Google account to perform the authentication. It can be any Google account and it's there to prevent spam.

After running claude mcp add --transport http nordic-semiconductor-docs https://nordicsemi.mcp.kapa.ai you need to run /mcp in order to open the browser for authentication. I guess that you ran this already, and when you see that “needs authentication” line it means that you should see a browser window open, requesting Google authentication.

Do you see a browser pop up asking for Google authentication, as this is required for authentication in place of an API key.

Are you aware of the fact, that currently people can't add your MCP server to a tool like claude code or gemini-cli to get access to your documentation while working with the nrf sdk without paying a fee to Kapa ?

Hi Peter,

As far as we are concerned, Nordic does not impose any fees for accessing the official Documentations, and they are free of cost.

If any third party platforms impose fees, say, Kapa hosted MCP infrastructure etc., I think you should be contacting that particular platform's support for the same.
