Connect Claude Desktop

Claude Desktop supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP) natively. Once you add Klarify as a custom connector, Claude can search your processes, browse your organizational structure, and (for administrators) create or update content on your behalf.

Prerequisites

  • Claude Desktop installed and signed in to your Anthropic account
  • A Klarify account in the organization you want to connect

Step 1: Add the Klarify connector

In Claude Desktop, add a custom connector pointing to the Klarify MCP server:

https://mcp.klarify.biz/mcp

Follow Anthropic’s guide for adding a custom connector: Get started with custom connectors using remote MCP.

Step 2: Sign in to Klarify

The first time Claude Desktop connects to the Klarify connector, your browser opens a Klarify sign-in page.

  1. Sign in with your Klarify account.
  2. Approve the connection when prompted.
  3. Return to Claude Desktop. The connector now shows as connected.

Claude Desktop stores the session locally so you do not need to sign in again on subsequent launches.

Step 3: Verify the connection

In a new Claude Desktop conversation, ask Claude to confirm it can reach Klarify. For example:

Who am I signed in as in Klarify?

Claude calls the get_current_user tool and returns your name, email, role, and current organization. If Claude responds that it cannot find a Klarify tool, the connector is not active — re-check Step 1.

Signing out

To end the session and force a fresh sign-in next time, remove the Klarify connector in Claude Desktop’s settings, then add it again. Each new connection revokes the previous session.
