Connect Claude and Claude Desktop

Add your panel as a custom connector in Claude. It works on the web, in Claude Desktop and on mobile.

A connector you add on claude.ai is also in Claude Desktop and the mobile apps: you add it once.

Your own account

  1. Add a custom connector

    On claude.ai, open Customize → Connectors, choose Add, then Add custom connector.

    • Name: Minimus
    • URL: your panel's MCP address, such as https://panel.example.com/mcp

    Choose Continue. For authentication, keep the option marked Detected (sign in), then Add.

  2. Connect

    Choose Connect. Claude opens your panel's sign-in page: sign in as the account Claude should act for, choose the scopes, and approve.

  3. Use it in a chat

    In a chat, open + → Connectors and turn Minimus on. Then ask, for example: "Stream Channel A keeps buffering: check its sources and restart it."

Team or Enterprise

An Owner adds the connector once for the organisation:

  1. Organization settings → Connectors, then Add → Custom (choose Web if asked).
  2. Name Minimus, the panel's MCP address, and sign-in as the authentication. Add.

Each member then opens Customize → Connectors, finds Minimus (marked Custom), and chooses Connect to sign in with their own panel account.

Good to know

  • The Free plan allows one custom connector; paid plans more.
  • Your panel must be reachable from the internet: Claude calls it from Anthropic's servers.
  • The sign-in choice can't be changed on a connector once added: remove it and add it again.
  • Claude Code signed in with the same Claude account sees this connector too. To give Claude Code its own key instead, see Claude Code.

Disconnect

Remove the connector under Customize → Connectors, or disconnect it from your panel under AI apps in the dashboard's menu.
