Use Monad with Claude

Monad ships an inbound MCP endpoint so Claude (or any other MCP-aware client) can read messages, edit canvases, comment on tasks, and post into your spaces — acting as you.

What Claude can do#

Once connected, Claude can:

• Send messages and replies into your spaces.
• Read recent conversations to answer questions about them.
• Search across your messages, spaces, documents, people, and files.
• Create and edit canvas documents and databases.
• File and comment on tasks in your groups.
• Read help articles and look up users.

Every action Claude takes is attributed to your account — the same permissions, the same audit trail.

Connect Claude desktop#

1. Open Claude desktop. Go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
2. Enter your Monad MCP URL: https://<your-workspace>.onmonad.ai/mcp.
3. Claude opens your browser to sign you into Monad. Sign in if you aren't already.
4. Approve the consent screen. Claude appears as a connected app.
5. The app catalogue now lists Monad's tools — start a chat and ask Claude to summarise yesterday's #general.

Connect Claude iOS#

1. In the Claude app, open Settings → Connectors → Add server.
2. Paste the same URL: https://<your-workspace>.onmonad.ai/mcp.
3. Sign in to Monad in the in-app browser and approve the consent screen.
4. Tools appear under the chat composer's tool tray.

Revoke access#

You can disconnect Claude at any time from Settings → Personal → API keys & apps. Look for the row labelled "Claude" and tap Revoke. The next request from Claude will fail immediately; you can always reconnect later by repeating the steps above.

Troubleshooting#

• "Couldn't sign you in" loop — make sure you're signing into the right Monad workspace (the URL must match the workspace subdomain).
• Tools missing — Claude caches the tool list. Disconnect and reconnect the server from Claude's settings.
• Actions are denied — Claude can only do what your account is allowed to do. If you don't have access to a space, Claude doesn't either.
