Connecting to Claude Desktop

Use this guide to connect Claude Desktop to PropampAI MCP so Claude can access your PropampAI tools during chat.

Before You Start

1. Install the latest Claude Desktop app.
2. Sign in with a Claude account that has Pro enabled (custom connectors are not available on Free).
3. Keep this MCP endpoint ready:

• https://mcp.propamp.ai/mcp/sse

Add a Custom Connector

1. Open Claude Desktop.
2. Go to the Cowork or Code tab.
3. Click Customize.
4. In the menu, open Connections.
5. Click the + (plus) button.
6. Choose Add Custom Connector.

Connector Details to Enter

When prompted, fill in:

• Name: PropampAI MCP
• Remote MCP Server URL: https://mcp.propamp.ai/mcp/sse

Copy-paste values:

Name: PropampAI MCP
Remote MCP Server URL: https://mcp.propamp.ai/mcp/sse

Then save the connector.

Next Step: Sign In to PropampAI

After you add and save the connector, Claude will open a sign-in page.

1. Enter your PropampAI email and password.
2. Sign in the same way you normally sign in on the PropampAI web app.
3. Return to Claude when authentication completes.

Once this is done, your MCP connector is fully set up and ready to use.

Verify Connection

After saving:

1. Confirm the connector appears in your Connections list.
2. Start a new Claude chat.
3. Run a simple test prompt that requires MCP tools.
4. If tool calls appear and responses include MCP-backed output, setup is complete.

Troubleshooting

• If the connector does not save, check you are on a Pro plan.
• If the connection fails, confirm the URL is exactly: https://mcp.propamp.ai/mcp/sse
• If tools do not appear, restart Claude Desktop and try again.
• If your network blocks the endpoint, test from another network or allow outbound access.
