Claude Desktop and Claude.ai

Connect Currents to Claude Desktop and Claude.ai from the Claude connectors directory, for yourself or for your whole Claude organization

Currents is listed in the Claude connectors directory at claude.ai/directory/currents. A connector belongs to your Claude account rather than to one device, so connecting once makes Currents available in Claude Desktop, Claude.ai, the Claude mobile app, Cowork and Claude Code.

Connect from the Claude directory

  1. Open claude.ai/directory/currents. Or, in Claude Desktop or Claude.ai, open Customize → Connectors, select Discover and search for Currents.

  2. Click Connect to Claude, then sign in.

The directory listing works on every plan, including Free, and there is no URL to enter.

An Owner adds Currents for the organization first:

  1. Click Connect for your team. Currents is now available to everyone in the organization.

  2. Click Connect to Claude to connect your own Currents account.

Owners can also add Currents from Organization settings → Connectors → Browse connectors.

Each member then connects with their own Currents account:

  1. Open Customize → Connectors and find Currents.

  2. Click Connect to Claude, then sign in.

On a Team plan, a member without permission to enable connectors sees Request instead of a connect button. Request sends the request to the organization's Owners, who approve it under Organization settings → Connectors.

Adding the connector gives nobody access to Currents data. Each member signs in to Currents themselves, and their connection carries their own Currents role.

Sign in

Connect to Claude opens a Currents sign-in page. Sign in, choose the organization Claude will work in, and approve the permissions Claude asks for. The browser then returns you to Claude, and the connector shows as connected. See Sign in once for what each screen shows.

Use it in a chat

Click + at the bottom left of the message box, open Connectors, and make sure Currents is turned on for the conversation. Then ask about your projects:

Which tests in <project> were flakiest on main this week, and why?

The Search and tools menu lets you turn off individual Currents tools before Claude calls them. Turn off the ones a conversation does not need, especially currents-delete-run, which permanently deletes a run. Currents does not ask for confirmation.

Disconnect

Disconnecting in Customize → Connectors removes Currents from Claude. To revoke Claude's access from the Currents side, see Revoke a connection.

Other ways to connect

Add Currents by URL

Use a custom connector only when the directory listing is not available to you.

Free, Pro and Max:

  1. In Claude Desktop or claude.ai, open Customize → Connectors.

  2. Click +, then Add custom connector.

  3. Name it Currents and enter the URL https://mcp.currents.dev/mcp.

  4. Leave Advanced settings empty. Claude identifies itself to Currents on its own, so there is no client ID or secret to enter.

  5. Click Add, then Connect.

On the Free plan, Claude allows one custom connector.

Team and Enterprise: an Owner opens Organization settings → Connectors, clicks Add, hovers over Custom and chooses Web, enters https://mcp.currents.dev/mcp with Advanced settings empty, and clicks Add. Members then connect as described in the Team and Enterprise tab above.

If you added Currents by URL before

A custom connector you added earlier keeps working. It shows under Custom in Customize → Connectors, and the directory listing shows Currents as not connected. Connecting from the directory without removing it gives you two Currents connections.

To move to the directory listing:

  1. In Customize → Connectors, open the Currents connector under Custom.

  2. Open the three-dot menu and select Remove. On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner removes it under Organization settings → Connectors.

  3. Connect from claude.ai/directory/currents and sign in again.

Run the server on your computer

Claude Desktop can also run the Currents MCP server on your computer, with an API key instead of your own sign-in. This works in Claude Desktop only, not on Claude.ai. Open Settings → Developer → Edit Config and add the configuration from Local MCP Server to claude_desktop_config.json, then restart Claude Desktop. A local setup creates no entry under Connected Applications: the key keeps working until an Admin revokes it under Organization → API Keys.

The connector from the directory needs nothing installed, and its access follows your own Currents role.

Troubleshooting

What you see
What to do

Claude does not use Currents

Check that Currents is turned on under + → Connectors for this conversation.

The wrong organization's data

Disconnect, connect again, and choose the other organization.

Two Currents connectors in the list

One is a custom connector added by URL. Remove the one under Custom. See If you added Currents by URL before.

For other errors, see Troubleshooting.
