Use Benchy from the agent you already have
Connect Benchy once and your agent can build on your canvases, reach the files in your Box, publish and price work on benchy.world, keep your Skills and memories current, and put a question to Benchy itself.
Set up your client
Adds every Benchy tool to Claude Code in the terminal, for this project or for all of them.
- Put your key in the environment as BENCHY_PAT, from your shell profile so it survives a new terminal.
- Run the command below, or save the file version as .mcp.json in your project root — .mcp.json is meant to be committed, so it must not hold the key itself.
- Restart Claude Code and run /mcp — benchy should be listed as connected.
export BENCHY_PAT="bnchy_YOUR_KEY"
claude mcp add --transport http benchy https://mcp.benchy.studio/api/mcp \ --header "Authorization: Bearer $BENCHY_PAT"
{
"mcpServers": {
"benchy": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.benchy.studio/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ${BENCHY_PAT}"
}
}
}
}Watch outKeep the `type` line. Without it Claude Code treats the entry as a local command, finds none, and skips Benchy without saying so.
DocumentationSigning in
Claude, ChatGPT and Cowork open Benchy in a browser and sign you in there, so there is nothing to paste.
Every other client reads a personal key, which you make on the API keys page of your profile and give a monthly Credits limit.

Keys, limits and activity
Charges through a key stop at its monthly limit until the cycle resets, and revoking a key ends its access at once. Your API keys also list recent activity: each tool call, how it ended, and how long it took.
