Agent prompt for Claude Code or Codex
Add the FlickDirect Connect: Movie MCP Server MCP server to my MCP client configuration and verify that it works.

What it is: Read-only movie MCP server for FlickDirect movie and TV facts, available country dates and ratings, site-wide news and review previews, podcasts, streaming and deals. Free access with no authentication.
Server URL: https://connect.flickdirect.com/mcp
Transport: Streamable HTTP (remote MCP server, no local install).
Authentication: none. The server accepts connections without credentials.
Tools: not yet observed by mcptest; tools/list will show them.
Reference: https://mcptest.io/servers/flickdirect/

Steps:
1. Work out which MCP client I use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code or another) and add the server under the name "flickdirect" in that client's MCP configuration, user scope unless I ask otherwise.
   Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http --scope user 'flickdirect' 'https://connect.flickdirect.com/mcp'
   Codex: codex mcp add 'flickdirect' --url 'https://connect.flickdirect.com/mcp'
   Other clients: use the setup for that client on the reference page.
2. Never write a credential value into a file that could be committed; reference an environment variable or the client's secret store, and ask me for any value you need.
3. Verify: connect to the server and call tools/list. Confirm the tools above are listed, and report any sign-in step I still have to complete.
