# How do I connect Claude Desktop?

> Add Klipy as a custom connector in Claude and authorize access with OAuth.

Klipy connects to Claude, the desktop app or claude.ai, as a custom connector backed by a remote MCP server. Add it once from Connectors settings and authorize with OAuth; Claude can then read your Klipy pipeline, contacts, and conversations in any chat where you enable it. Adding a custom connector requires a Pro or Max plan for individual accounts.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Klipy's MCP server is supervised — every write action still goes through the same review Klipy applies everywhere else. See [how the MCP server works](https://klipy.ai/docs/guides/mcp/overview.md) before connecting.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Adding a custom connector requires a Pro or Max plan for individual accounts. On Team and Enterprise plans, only an organization owner can add a custom connector — from **Organization settings → Connectors** — before members can connect to it individually.

## How do I connect Claude Desktop to Klipy?

**1. Add Klipy as a custom connector**

Go to **Settings → Connectors**, then select **Add custom connector** (the **+** button).

Enter:

* **Name**: `Klipy`
* **Remote MCP server URL**: `https://api.klipy.ai/mcp`

Click **Add**.

> [!NOTE]
>
> On Team or Enterprise plans where an owner has already added Klipy at the organization level, you won't see this step — go to **Customize → Connectors**, find Klipy, and select **Connect** instead.

**2. Authorize with OAuth**

Claude opens a browser window to complete the OAuth flow. Sign in and approve access, then return to Claude — Klipy now appears as a connected connector.

**3. Verify it works**

Start a new chat, enable the Klipy connector from the **+** button, and ask:

```text theme={null}
Who am I in Klipy?
```

Claude calls the `get_current_user` tool and returns your Klipy account details. If it responds with your name and workspace, the connection is authenticated and ready.

## What can I do once Claude is connected?

Enable the Klipy connector from the **+** button in any chat to put its tools to work.
