Quickstart

This guide gets you from nothing to a setup where your agent answers questions about your reference documents (norms, laws, regulations) with citations you can check.

There are two ways to plug Stratta in, and the first one needs nothing installed.

1. Create your account

   Sign-up is open to everyone. Go to stratta.ch/sign-up, enter your email and a password, then enter the code you receive. If your organization already uses Stratta, sign up with the address you were invited at.

   Your space already reads a demonstration document so you have something to query straight away. The free plan stops there; adding your own documents needs a paid plan (see Plan and quotas).

2. Plug in your agent

   The shortest path: in your dashboard, Intégrations › Brancher un agent. Pick the client you use (Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Windsurf) and the card gives you what fits it: a button for ChatGPT, Cursor, and VS Code, a command for the CLIs, the settings path for Claude. The step ticks itself the moment the agent is authorised. What follows says the same thing, by hand.

   From the browserOn my machine

   In your agent, add an MCP connector with this address:

   https://stratta.ch/mcp

   Nothing to install: no Node, no terminal, no key. On its first call your agent sends you to a page naming the application, your account and your organisation. You authorise, and that is it.

   From a terminal:

   claude mcp add --transport http stratta --scope user https://stratta.ch/mcp

   This is the only way that works in an agent running in the cloud, such as claude.ai. Details: Connect an agent from the browser.

3. Ask your first question

   Start a conversation in your agent and try:

   Show me the table of contents of DEMO 001, then section 3.1.

   Your agent calls the Stratta tools, walks down the document, and answers with a citation like [DEMO 001, 3.1, p. 4].

   DEMO 001 is a demonstration document with invented content, present in every workspace so you can see the mechanics on day one. Never use it on a project. Your real norms come next.

What just happened#

Your agent used the Stratta MCP server: a small program that exposes your norms as a set of tools. When you asked your question, it:

1. Listed the norms available in your workspace.
2. Opened the table of contents and drilled into the relevant chapter.
3. Read the section content and followed cross-references to other norms.
4. Answered with a citation pointing to a section it actually opened.
