How to use Mixpanel with Claude Code
You want Mixpanel inside Claude Code so it can diagnose a conversion drop, find retention problems, investigate a user journey, and audit product tracking — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.
Create your Mixpanel gateway
The gateway is the thing Claude Code connects to, and it is where you decide which Mixpanel tools an agent may use. You create it once and every client reuses it.
-
Create an Arcade account
Sign up and open the dashboard. The free tier is enough to follow this through.
-
Create an MCP Gateway and select your Mixpanel tools
In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the Mixpanel tools you want to expose. The gateway is what your client connects to, and it is where tool access is decided.
-
Copy your gateway URL
Every client below needs it.
https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>
Connect the gateway to Claude Code
-
Add the gateway as a remote HTTP MCP server
claude mcp add arcade --transport http "<YOUR_ARCADE_GATEWAY_URL>"
-
Verify it was added
claude mcp get arcade claude mcp list
-
Try it out
Open Claude Code in your project and ask it to use one of your Mixpanel tools.

Use a shared API key and tool permissions to limit which Mixpanel projects and read-only analytics an agent can access. Pair it with Contextual Access policies so the agent can inspect trends and cohorts without receiving broader credentials.
