April 2026 — Netdata Cloud MCP documentation enhancement: Claude Code One-Liner Setup. Implemented a dedicated Claude Code One-Liner Setup subsection in the Netdata Cloud MCP docs, enabling users to register the Cloud MCP server with a single claude mcp add command, eliminating manual JSON edits. Included guidance on obtaining an API token with scope:mcp, the three scope flags (user/local/project) and best practices against committing raw tokens, and references to list/get/remove commands with a restart hint. Co-authored with Claude Opus (1M context). This update improves onboarding speed, reduces configuration errors, and aligns with cloud onboarding goals.
