The Nuanced MCP Server can be easily integrated with Claude to provide call graph analysis capabilities directly in your conversations.

​
Installation

​
Prerequisites

Before configuring Claude, ensure you’ve completed the installation steps from the Overview:
  1. Configure npm authentication with your license key
  2. Install the MCP server globally

​
Claude Configuration

To add the Nuanced MCP server to Claude, run this command in your terminal before starting Claude Code: 
claude mcp add nuanced nuanced-mcp-ts
This will configure Claude to use the nuanced-mcp-ts package as an MCP server named “nuanced”.

​
Usage

Once configured, you can use the Nuanced tools in your Claude conversations:

​
Initialize a Project

Ask Claude to run the nuanced init tool to initialize call graph analysis for your project: 
Initialize this project with nuanced
Claude’s output should confirm the nuanced init tool was called: 
⏺ I'll initialize this project with the Nuanced MCP tool.

⏺ nuanced - init (MCP)
When the init tool is finished, you should see a .nuanced directory.

​
Analyze Functions

Request call graph analysis for specific functions: 
enrich the <function_name> function
Claude will use the enrich tool to provide detailed information about:
  • Function dependencies
  • Call relationships
  • Code structure insights

​
Benefits

  • Contextual Analysis: Get call graph insights without leaving your editor
  • Code Navigation: Understand complex codebases more efficiently
  • Refactoring Support: Identify dependencies before making changes
  • Architecture Overview: Visualize how functions relate to each other

​
Verification

To verify the server is working correctly, you can ask Claude to list available MCP tools or test the functionality with a simple init command.
