# Connect Claude

#### Open connector settings

In Claude, open the settings for integrations or custom connectors.

#### Add the Alpha server

Use `https://mcp.openantares.com/mcp` as the server URL. Name the connection `Alpha` or `Antares Knowledge`.

#### Sign in to Alpha

Claude opens the Alpha authorization screen. Sign in with the account whose vault access you want the connector to use.

#### Approve the connection

Review the client name and approve access. Alpha returns you to Claude after issuing a personal access token.

#### Test scope before content

Ask Claude to list the Alpha vaults you can access. Then name one vault and request its brief or recent meetings.

## Troubleshooting

#### The redirect URI was rejected

Alpha only accepts redirect URIs from approved MCP clients. Use Claude's built-in connector flow. For the Slack MCP feature, the exact callback is `https://oauth2.slack.com/external/auth/callback`.

#### The wrong vault was selected

Ask the client to call `list_vaults` and then pass the exact vault name or ID to the next tool. Do not continue with an inferred client name when several vaults are plausible.

#### A write action was refused

The approving person needs editor or admin permission in the target vault. Reconnecting does not upgrade their Alpha role.
