Connect to your IDE - HiAUDIT Documentation

HiAUDIT works as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server inside AI-powered code editors. Run one command to register it with all supported tools:


hiauditagent mcp add

This auto-detects which tools you have installed and adds the HiAUDITAgent MCP server to each one. After running, restart your editor.

The command reports which tools it detected and which ones it configured:

Terminal output of hiauditagent mcp add detecting Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenAI Codex and adding the HiAUDITAgent MCP server to each

Supported IDEs and AI tools

Tool	Config file updated
Cursor	`~/.cursor/mcp.json`
Claude Code	`~/.claude/mcp.json`
Windsurf	`~/.windsurf/mcp.json`
OpenAI Codex	`~/.codex/mcp.json`
Gemini CLI	`~/.gemini/mcp.json`

Tools that aren’t installed are skipped (shown as [x] not installed).

Manual setup

If you prefer manual configuration, add a hiauditagent server entry to your IDE’s MCP config file with command set to hiauditagent and args set to ["mcp", "serve"]:


{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hiauditagent": {
      "command": "hiauditagent",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

After restarting your editor, it will discover the HiAUDIT MCP server and can start calling its tools from chat.
