Claude.ai

Claude.ai (web) connects to CrowdTime as a custom connector. Unlike Claude Desktop, you don't paste your bearer into a config file — you give Claude.ai the MCP URL, and it opens a CrowdTime pop-up where you input the bearer token.

Before you start

• Issue a new CrowdTime bearer token (Issue an MCP Token). You'll paste during the authorization flow for the new connector.

• All Claude.ai plans support custom connectors (Free / Pro / Max / Team / Enterprise).

The free version of Claude allows one custom MCP connector.

Add the connector

1. In Claude.ai, open Customize → Connectors.
2. Click on Connectors. Add connector +.
3. Fill in:
   • Name: CrowdTime (or whatever you like).
   • Remote MCP server URL: copy this from the CrowdTime token page.
4. Click Add.

Claude.ai will open a CrowdTime pop-up asking you to authorize the connector.

Authorize

The pop-up asks you to paste your CrowdTime bearer token (sk_…). This links the connector to your wallet:

1. Paste the bearer.
2. Confirm.

Verify

Open a new chat and ask:

List the CrowdTime MCP tools, then run crowdtrendz_crypto_news_research or crowdtrendz_stock_news_research.

You should see ~16 tools and a comprehensive summary.

If you're asked to re-paste your bearer

After a CrowdTime deploy or restart, Claude.ai may pop the consent screen open again. Just paste the same bearer — it still works. Nothing on your wallet has changed.

Removing the connector

Customize → Connectors → CrowdTime → Remove. To fully sever the link, also revoke the underlying bearer from the CrowdTime home page so that no future client can use it.
