# Claude and ChatGPT

> Connect SenseLab to Claude or ChatGPT with one sign-in. No install, no API key, no config file.

SenseLab runs a hosted connector that Claude and ChatGPT connect to directly. You sign in once, approve what the connector may do, and your memory is available in the conversation from then on.

This is different from [MCP Setup](/amfs/guides/mcp), which configures a server on your own machine for coding agents like Cursor and Claude Code. Use this page for the chat apps, that one for your IDE.

<Note>
  The connector URL is `https://mcp.sense-lab.ai/mcp`. That is the only value you need, and it is the same for everyone — there is no per-account URL to look up.
</Note>

## Connect Claude

Claude supports custom connectors on the web and desktop apps.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your connector settings">
    In Claude, go to **Settings → Connectors**, then choose **Add custom connector**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste the SenseLab URL">
    Enter `https://mcp.sense-lab.ai/mcp`. Leave any client ID or secret fields blank — SenseLab registers Claude automatically, so there is nothing to copy across.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in and approve">
    Claude opens a SenseLab sign-in page. Sign in with the account whose memory you want Claude to reach, then review the permissions described in [What you are approving](#what-you-are-approving) and confirm.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the tools arrived">
    Back in Claude, the connector should list its available tools. If it shows none, use the connector's **Refresh** control once — some clients cache an empty tool list from before you finished signing in.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Connect ChatGPT

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open connector settings">
    In ChatGPT, go to **Settings → Connectors** and add a connector by URL.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste the SenseLab URL">
    Enter `https://mcp.sense-lab.ai/mcp` and continue.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign in and approve">
    Approve the permissions on the SenseLab consent screen.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the tools arrived">
    If ChatGPT reports no actions for SenseLab, refresh the connector once. The tools load on the first refresh after the connection completes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Both apps move these settings around from time to time. If the menus above do not match what you see, search their own help for "custom connector" or "MCP server" — the URL you paste does not change.
</Tip>

## What You Are Approving

The consent screen asks for three permissions. In full:

| Scope            | What it allows                                                                                |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `memory.read`    | Read your memories, search them, and read shared rooms you belong to.                         |
| `memory.write`   | Create and update memories, post in rooms, and record decisions and outcomes.                 |
| `offline_access` | Refresh its own access without asking you to sign in again. Removing the connector ends this. |

Authorization uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. SenseLab never sees your Claude or ChatGPT credentials, and the tokens it issues are stored only as hashes — a copy of our database yields nothing anyone could replay.

## What the Connector Can Reach

A connector approved through the consent screen above gets SenseLab's full surface: **80 tools**, covering memory, search, agent identity, rooms and their documents, room discovery and access requests, negotiations, memory consolidation and decision traces.

This is deliberately more than a pasted API key gets. A connection configured with an API key — the pattern used by Cursor in URL mode and by builder platforms — sees eleven tools only:

<CodeGroup>
  ```text API key connections theme={null}
  amfs_briefing
  amfs_commit_outcome
  amfs_my_rooms
  amfs_record_action
  amfs_record_context
  amfs_retrieve
  amfs_room_briefing
  amfs_room_join
  amfs_room_redeem
  amfs_search
  amfs_write
  ```
</CodeGroup>

The reason is consent. A connection someone set up months ago should not silently gain the ability to delete a room because we shipped a release. The wider surface goes only to connections whose owner was shown it and agreed.

***

## Disconnecting

Remove the connector in the app you added it to — **Settings → Connectors**, then remove or disconnect SenseLab. That revokes its access immediately, and no further memory is sent.

Two things to know:

* **Disconnecting does not reach backwards.** Memories already sent are part of conversations that provider holds. Delete those conversations in that app if you want them gone.
* **Your memories stay in SenseLab.** Disconnecting removes an app's access; it does not delete anything. To delete the memories themselves, see [Data deletion](https://amfs.sense-lab.ai/data-deletion).

You can also ask us to revoke a connection for you at [hello@sense-lab.ai](mailto:hello@sense-lab.ai), which is useful if you have lost access to the app that holds it.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="The connector shows no tools or actions">
    Use the client's **Refresh** control on the connector once. Both apps can cache an empty tool list captured before the sign-in finished, and they do not always re-ask on their own.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Sign-in succeeds but tool calls fail with an authorization error">
    The connector's access has been revoked, or the account it was approved against was removed. Remove the connector and add it again.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="A tool says it is not available on this connection">
    That connection is authenticated with an API key rather than through the consent screen, so it has the eleven tools listed above. Add it as a connector by URL instead, and approve it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Rooms appear empty">
    Check you signed in with the account that belongs to the room. Room membership follows the account, so approving the connector against a different one shows you that account's rooms instead.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
