Install

Copy. Paste. Reason.

The fastest way to add cognitive reasoning tools to your AI workflow. No packages to install, no servers to configure — just copy a JSON config and go.

You need an API key

All configs below use YOUR_RSVC_API_KEY as a placeholder. Sign up to get a key starting with rsvc_.

Get your API key

On Claude Code? Skip the JSON.

Two commands wire every engine at once and prompt for your API token. No config file, no endpoint to paste, nothing to keep in sync when we ship a new one.

bash

/plugin marketplace add reasoning-services/marketplace
/plugin install reasoning-services@reasoning-services-marketplace

Restart Claude Code. Every engine appears in /mcp, and the skills that decide when to use them trigger on their own.

We have skills

Twelve of them — the part that knows when to reach for an engine and how to frame the input. They install into Cursor, Copilot, Cline, Windsurf and 70-odd other agents:

bash

npx skills add reasoning-services/marketplace

That installs the skills. The engines they call still need the plugin above, or one of the client configs below with your API token. Find our marketplace on GitHub.

Or Pick Your Client

The universal path — works in any MCP client. Each block contains every reasoning tool using native streamable HTTP transport.

Cline and Continue use a flat MCP config. Any client that supports the MCP spec with streamable HTTP transport can use this configuration.

Troubleshooting

If tools don't appear after configuration, verify your setup with these commands.

Verify connectivity

Replace YOUR_RSVC_API_KEY with your actual key and run:

bash

curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_RSVC_API_KEY' https://reasoning.services/tools/context-switcher/mcp

Environment variable setup

Some clients support environment variable references in headers. Here's the general pattern:

bash

# In your shell profile (.zshrc, .bashrc, etc.)
export REASONING_SERVICES_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"

# Then replace YOUR_RSVC_API_KEY in the JSON config with the actual key value.
# Some clients support environment variable references in headers —
# check your client's documentation for details.
