Claude Connector
Connect Claude to your Sajel data by pasting one address and signing in, then let it read and build boards.
What the connector is
Sajel hosts an MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint. Claude connects to it the way it connects to any other service you own: you paste the address, sign in to Sajel, and approve what it is asking for. There is no key to copy, store or keep out of sight.
All three Claude clients work the same way: claude.ai, Claude Desktop and Claude Code.
Once connected, Claude can list your workspaces, read board schemas and records, create bases, boards, fields and records, link records, run views, and inspect automations. It acts as you and can reach exactly what you can reach, never more.
The connector exposes 18 tools plus built-in skills, and they load by themselves. Nothing else to install.
Get an API key
Copy your Sajel address
Go to Settings, then Connections. The address at the top is the only thing you need to copy.
Paste it into Claude
In Claude, open Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, and paste it. Claude Code users run the one command shown on the same page instead.
Sign in and approve
Sajel opens in your browser. Sign in if you are not already, read what the app is asking for, and press Connect.
You can withdraw access at any moment under Settings, Connections, Connected apps. It takes effect immediately.
Connect from Claude Code
In your terminal (not the Claude chat window), run:
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http sajel <your Sajel address>The address is shown in Settings, Connections. Then, inside Claude Code, type /mcp, pick sajel, and choose to authenticate — your browser opens on Sajel, you approve, and you are connected. Type /mcp again to confirm.
--scope user makes Sajel available in every project you open, rather than only the folder you happened to be in.
If you use Claude on your phone with /remote-control, it inherits this connection from your desktop session — there is no separate mobile setup.
Connect from claude.ai and Claude Desktop
Both are the same three steps.
Open the connector screen
Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector.
Paste the address
Name it Sajel and paste your Sajel address from Settings, Connections. That is the only field to fill in.
Sign in
A Sajel page opens in your browser. Sign in, check what is being granted, and press Connect. Claude picks it up on its own — with Desktop there is nothing to quit and reopen.
claude.ai runs in the cloud, so it needs your public Sajel address, not a local one.
On a Claude Desktop old enough to have no Connectors screen, install the Sajel extension from Settings, Connections instead: download it, double-click it, and Desktop asks for an API key in a form and keeps it in your operating system's keychain.
What Claude can do
| Area | Tools |
|---|---|
| Workspaces and bases | list_workspaces, create_workspace, list_bases, create_base |
| Boards and fields | list_boards, create_board, get_board_schema, create_field, create_view, list_views |
| Records | list_records, get_record, create_record, create_records, update_record, delete_record |
| Relations | link_records, unlink_records, get_linked_records |
| Automations and files | list_automations, read_attachment |
| Everything else | sajel_request, a scoped passthrough for any supported endpoint |
Four skills arrive as slash commands the moment you connect: build_app scaffolds a full working app, seed_data fills boards with realistic sample data, summarize_board reports on a board's contents, and use_attachments works with files on records.
Security model
Connecting by sign-in:
API keys, for scripts and tools that cannot sign in:
Both are confined to the data API. Neither can reach account, billing or admin routes, and neither can create or list API keys — only a signed-in person can.
