Is it better than
Bolt
Amazing
You better show the product layout , full functions, design etc because some of your videos only seen just code part as you focus people who dont know coding.. Maybe better to show product always ….
I made the JSON file & pluged in the API key it still doesnt seem to watch to find the file. I might have made a mistake because i told perplexity to adapt your messages for windows. Fudge. Do you know if i can copy paste the Json to a specific file to get it working from this point?
I’m going to do my own vectal app 😂 (I could but I’m not)

Will it be possible with Swarm to have a hybrid of models, for example: using the triage or first-level agent ''gpt-4o or mini" and the agents that manage tools (last level) that use ollama with models like 'qwen2.5-coder' that works very well and fast? 🤔 I don't know if this can be possible, my intention is to reduce costs and increase perimeter data security.
DO you have a beginners course
Love your channel, and I have faith it is possible to create an agent with your explanations, but you move so fast I get lost and in some cases you jump from one place to another skipping how you got there, any chance you can slow down a bit? and really include all the steps? Most of us are totally new at this … thank you! your channell is awesome
It's saying "Could not attach to MCP Server brave-search". And no tools are appearing 🙁
For those having issues with this, here is how I resolved it.
1. Initial Setup:
– Installed Node.js using nvm (Node Version Manager) via Homebrew
– Made sure to install nvm first, then Node.js through nvm (order was important)
2. Configuration File:
– Located the proper config file path: `/Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
– Had to handle spaces in the path name correctly (this was tricky!)
3. Key Changes That Made It Work:
– Used the full path to npx: `/Users/yourname/.nvm/versions/node/v23.3.0/bin/npx`
– Added proper environment variables (PATH and NODE_PATH)
– Made sure to use the correct Brave API key (we had to try between two different keys – the "Data for Search" one)
– Created a clean JSON file directly in VS Code instead of using echo commands to avoid formatting issues
4. Final Working Configuration:
“`json
{
"mcpServers": {
"brave-search": {
"command": "/Users/yourname.nvm/versions/node/v23.3.0/bin/npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-brave-search"
],
"env": {
"BRAVE_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY",
"PATH": "/Users/yourname/.nvm/versions/node/v23.3.0/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin",
"NODE_PATH": "/Users/yourname/.nvm/versions/node/v23.3.0/lib/node_modules"
}
}
}
}
“`
5. Important Steps After Changes:
– Always fully quit Claude Desktop (Command+Q)
– Restart the application
– Verify the MCP server is running with "Brave Search MCP Server running on stdio"
The key lesson was to be methodical and verify each component (Node.js installation, config file location, API key, and proper paths) step by step until we got it working (me and Claude).
This is a useful video, but it's hard to understand what you are saying.
Hey David. I've finished the step 5, however my Claude Desktop is showing me this message: "Could not connect to MCP server brave-search". Would you know how to fix it? Thx
Do you need Claude pro ?
Can you please make a video on how to take that starting point and use claude to turn your site into a business idea you have?
How can it access things like my crm
please make for windows man
$250 a month for your course is insane. For $250 a month I can buy a Linkedin Membership, Leet Code Membership, Chat GPT and Claude Membership, and multiple courses on udemy or any other learning platform.
You are insanely intelligent, but you are taking advantage of people and it's disgusting tbh.
YO THANKL YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO i WAS ONE OF THOSE THAT DIDNT KNOW HOW TO GET THIS SETUP BUT LOVED WHAT ANTHROPIC DID WITH THIS
Is there a way to make this work with Linux since there is no Claude App?
This is awesome 🎉
TURN OFF YOUR VPN IF YOUR HAVING ISSUES RESTARTING CLAUDE AND GETTING IT TO CONNECT.
Windows users:
windows button on keyboard -> type 'cmd' hit enter.
cd %AppData%Claude
echo. > claude_desktop_config.json
Any idea how to make it read local PDFs? I set up a file system server and it works for code, but can't read PDFs. You have to either upload them to the chat via the UI or use the PDF API. Would be super cool if you could use MCP to read local PDFs
ok im in hahaha, can i somehow link my Ollama Dolphin to be used with Claude ? like separate agents rather than models ?
OMG that was a nightmare but I got it to work on my PC
Is anyone else getting the problem – could not connect MCP server brave search and how did they resolve this?
wow, 2 days messing with this, no experience in coding whatsoever, continued error message in claude, then i started using the Cursor with AI and got confused because Claude said it was in cursor too LOL !! so having Claude run some code, install things like nodejs (never heard of it) lol, finally those damn tool numbers appeared on the claude window right side … very satisfying. however claude told me to delete the API key and do it again, since i pasted mine into claude .. David is absolutely correct, you learn more this way than any other.. im technical but this is foreign to me.. made easier by the day it seems. I do have some awesome app ideas though ( being creative) and an NLP master, this may help when it comes to language and patterns etc..
Great content, as always! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
have watched a lot of this guys videos I've learned nothing. Maybe I'm the problem
Incase anyone wants to just replicate!
Please do the following:
– make a simple html page
– create a repository called "new-society-test"
– Push the html page to the "new-society-test" repo
– Add a little css to the html page and then push it up
– Make an issue suggesting we add some more content on the html page
– Now make a branch called feature and make that fix and push the change
– Make a pull request against main with these changes
Maybe I don’t understand something, but it seems to me that it’s easier to use chat gpt, because it has built-in actions and Internet access.
Did anyone find a workaround to the Unprocessable Entity Error? I'm pretty sure my PA token had all the permissions available
I am getting a "Could Not Connect to MCP server brave-search" error when re-starting Claude.
Any thoughts on what i may have done wrong or missed?
I have gone through everything step by step carefully, and have inpout my API key, etc.
I can't see anything that I may have missed
I tried to get this to work on Windows forever, and didn't get any MCP's showing in Claude. Finally, the solution was to kill Claude from task manager and restarting Claude.
so far so good , the only pity is that config could not use our own anthropic API key so it is limited Claude account's usage.
Anyone also getting trouble in the last days with reaching claude,context relative aspects and more?It‘s like anthropic cant feed the monster anymore
I love Claude so much! 😂
Hey, I wish it didn't seem so complicated to me.. I'd love to hear how in your opinion such an agent can help lawyers like me. Thanks, it was interesting and it's a shame I didn't understand so much.
Thank you David for sharing the knowledge, can you compare the MPC claude with Replit?
I'm always reaching the time limit
Codeium is great as well 🙂
Do you need Paid subscription of Claude for this?
great video my guy, i did everything but for some reason when i relaunch Claude it gives me a error message " could not connect to MCP server brave – search " if you or anything has an idea what could fix this, id appreciate. also i uninstalled and reinstalled my desktop app and even went on the web browser and still nothing. ill keep trying
Is is this free?
Anyone getting an error "Cannot connect to MCP server brave-search"?
I dont care about these updates. They need to figure out how to remove the message limit. Shit takes time to build, especially if the AI is messing up your code. You are just wasting messages and not getting anything done.
