## Claude Desktop Integration

To use Frida MCP with Claude Desktop, you'll need to update your Claude configuration file:

1. Locate your Claude Desktop configuration file:
   - macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
   - Windows: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
   - Linux: `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

2. Add the following to your configuration file:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frida": {
      "command": "frida-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Alternatively, you can use the MCP CLI to install the server:

```bash
# Install using the module path
mcp install -m frida_mcp.c…
