Connected agents

Claude

Connect Claude to Typestream: a custom connector on claude.ai and Claude Desktop, or one command in Claude Code.

Claude connects to Typestream as a custom connector on claude.ai and in Claude Desktop, and as a remote MCP server in Claude Code. Either way you sign in to Typestream once, and Claude can then answer questions about your coverage with the articles behind them.

An owner or admin needs to have turned on Connected agents for your organisation first.

claude.ai and Claude Desktop

  1. In Claude, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Typestream, and paste the server URL: https://api.dev.typestream.nz/mcp
  3. Choose Add, then Connect. A Typestream window opens: sign in, pick the organisation, and choose Allow.
  4. In a chat, turn Typestream on from the tools menu, and ask away: "How has coverage of Halden Mobile's repair fees changed this month?"

On a Claude Team or Enterprise plan, an owner of your Claude organisation may need to add the connector first, under the organisation's connector settings; each person then connects it with their own Typestream account.

Connectors you add on claude.ai also appear in Claude Desktop and on mobile.

Claude Code

Add the server once, for every project:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user typestream https://api.dev.typestream.nz/mcp

Then, inside Claude Code, run /mcp, choose typestream and Authenticate. Your browser opens to sign in and pick the organisation; Claude Code keeps the access and renews it.

To add it for one project only, leave out --scope user.

When Claude asks to spend

When a question needs more credits than your auto-approve limit, Typestream answers Claude with the price instead of running it. Claude should tell you the price and ask; say yes, and it confirms. See Connected agents for how confirmations, credits and revoking work.
