What is Claude?
Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant on the web, desktop and mobile. Custom connectors let it call remote MCP servers; Free plans get one custom connector, and on Team and Enterprise an Owner adds it under Organization settings > Connectors.
Do I need an API key?
Search works with no key. Claude's custom connectors only accept a static key through a limited beta, so for now use Claude for search and inspiration, and generate from the studio, the CLI or a coding agent.
MCP, skill or CLI: which should I use?
