Minds

September 8, 2026·Minds Team # **Claude | Integrations** Connect Minds to Claude on claude.ai, in Claude Desktop, or in Claude Code. Sign in with your Minds account over OAuth; an API key is optional. ## Setup Connect Minds to Claude on claude.ai, in Claude Desktop, or in Claude Code. Sign in with your Minds account over OAuth; an API key is optional. ### claude.ai and Claude Desktop 1. Open **Customize** → **Connectors**, click **+**, and choose **Add custom connector**. 2. Enter `https://getminds.ai/mcp` as the remote MCP server URL and click **Add**. 3. Click **Connect**, sign in to Minds, and choose **Allow**. 4. In a conversation, enable Minds from **+** → **Connectors**. On Team and Enterprise plans, an owner first adds the connector under **Organization settings** → **Connectors**; each member then connects their own Minds account. ### Claude Code```
claude mcp add --transport http minds https://getminds.ai/mcp
``` Run `/mcp`, select `minds`, and choose **Authenticate** to sign in with OAuth. To use an API key instead, add `--header "Authorization: Bearer minds_YOUR_API_KEY"` to the command. ### Claude Desktop with an API key Without OAuth, add Minds as a local connector in `claude_desktop_config.json` and restart Claude Desktop:```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "minds": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://getminds.ai/mcp", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer minds_YOUR_API_KEY"]
    }
  }
}
``` Create the key in [Settings → API Keys](https://getminds.ai/settings/api-keys). Keep it out of prompts, screenshots and shared files. ## MCP Server URL`https://getminds.ai/mcp`[View full MCP documentation](https://getminds.ai/mcp/overview) [~~All integrations~~](https://getminds.ai/guide/integrations) [Minds](https://getminds.ai/)© 2026 Minds.
