Add semantic code navigation and editing tools to Claude Code. The linked upstream repository contains the current server source and configuration guidance.

## Install or set up

Install uv and Python 3.13 support. Run the command to install Serena, then run `serena init` followed by `serena setup claude-code` as documented upstream. Restart Claude Code and confirm the server through `/mcp`. Serena may need extra language server dependencies for your project.

```sh
uv tool install -p 3.13 serena-agent
```
