Set up Sonar in Claude Code
One shell command — tools load on your next session. Once connected, Claude Code can look up apps, research keywords, audit ASO, mine reviews, and estimate revenue — live from the App Store and Google Play.
Get your API key
Create a key in Settings → Developers — keys start with aso_. New accounts get 50 free credits on signup, enough to try every tool. No account yet? Start a free trial.
Add the Sonar MCP server
The server is published as @sonarapp/mcp on npm and runs via npx — no global install. One-liner from your shell:
Shell
claude mcp add sonar -e SONAR_API_KEY=aso_your_key_here -- npx -y @sonarapp/mcpReplace aso_your_key_here with the key from step 1.
Verify it works
End your current Claude Code session and start a new one — the 22 sonar_* tools load automatically. Ask “What Sonar tools do you have?” to confirm.
