The installer adds the Recallium MCP server to each client you select. Some clients also ask you to authenticate the server before your agent can use it. Authentication opens your browser, where you sign in to Recallium Cloud and approve access. In every client, the MCP server is named recallium.
Run the installer first. See the Quickstart.
