# 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.

<Info>
  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](/docs/guides/mcp/overview) before connecting.
</Info>

<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.
</Note>

## How do I connect Claude Desktop to Klipy?

<Steps>
  <Step title="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.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>

  <Step title="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.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What can I do once Claude is connected?

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