# Remote MCP Server

note

Due to [a bug in Goose](https://github.com/block/goose/issues/6073), you need to use the [`mcp-remote` NPM package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote) to mediate access to the Tigris MCP server. This represents a different security threat model than other clients employ. Please consult with your local systems administrator if you need a better understanding of the risks involved.

Run `goose configure`:

```
goose configure
```

Choose "Add Extension":

This will update your existing config files
