Prerequisites
- Claude Desktop installed
- A Kavio account with an active trial or subscription (no card required to start)
Setup
1
Open the Connectors settings
In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
2
Add the Kavio server URL
Paste the server URL:Leave the Advanced settings (Client ID / Client Secret) empty — Kavio supports Dynamic Client Registration, so Claude Desktop registers itself automatically.
3
Sign in through your browser
Claude Desktop opens a browser window to Kavio asking you to sign in and authorize. Click Allow and return to Claude Desktop — the connector flips to Connected.
4
Verify the connection
Start a new conversation and ask Claude to interact with your Kavio account:Claude will use the Kavio tools to fetch your posts.
Claude Desktop’s connector runs from Anthropic’s cloud, not from your machine,
so the hosted endpoint
https://app.getkavio.app/mcp/kavio is already
reachable.
