Custom connectors require a Claude Max, Team, or Enterprise plan. They aren’t available on the free or Pro tiers. Connectors are shared between Claude Desktop and claude.ai — install once, use everywhere.

​
Install

1

Copy the Ordinal MCP server URL

https://app.tryordinal.com/mcp
2

Open Claude's connector settings

Opens Claude’s connector settings in a new tab.
Open in Claude
3

Add the Ordinal connector

Click Add custom connector, paste the URL you copied, name it Ordinal, and save.
4

Connect your Ordinal account

On the next screen, click Connect. A browser window opens — sign in with your Ordinal account and approve access. The connector should now show Connected.
5

Try it out

Ask Claude in any chat: “List my Ordinal workspaces.” Claude should call the ordinal_get_workspace_context tool and return your workspaces.

​
Troubleshooting

Custom connectors require a Max, Team, or Enterprise plan. Upgrade your Claude subscription at claude.ai/settings/billing. Make sure you’re on the latest Claude Desktop version if you don’t see the option there either.
Update Claude Desktop to the latest version — older builds don’t support OAuth-based MCP connectors. Restart the app after updating, then retry from the connector settings.
Open the connector panel in chat (the icon in the message bar) and confirm Ordinal is enabled. If it says Reconnect, click it to re-run the sign-in.
You likely still have the old server configured. Remove any connector pointing at /api/mcp before using the new one. See the migration guide.
