Claude

Give Claude your saved articles, bookmarks and notes

Add Stacks to Claude as a custom connector. Claude can then search everything you saved with Stacks (pages, X bookmarks, LinkedIn posts, highlights and notes), read the ones it needs, and answer with links back to them.

Connect Stacks to Claude

1In Claude, open Settings → Connectors.
2Choose Add custom connector and paste https://app.betterstacks.com/api/mcp
3Sign in to Stacks and allow access.
4Ask Claude about something you saved, the way you remember it: “the pricing teardown I saved in the spring”.

Using Claude Code? Run claude mcp add --transport http stacks https://app.betterstacks.com/api/mcp, then /mcp to sign in. Full setup is on the connector page.

What Claude can do with your Stacks

Find a save from a description, even a half-remembered one: what it was about, where you saw it, roughly when.
Read a save in full, with your notes and highlights, so the answer comes from the source rather than a snippet.
Answer with sources: links back to the saves behind the answer.
Save from the chat: “Save this link to Stacks with a note.”
It can search, read and add, but never delete. Remove the connector and access stops.

Why not just paste links into Claude?

Pasting works for one link you remember. It doesn’t work for the article you read three months ago and can’t find, or for twenty saves on a topic spread across X, LinkedIn and the web. With the connector, Claude looks through everything you kept and picks what’s relevant, in every chat, without uploading files first.

Claude’s own memory and Projects are good at what you tell Claude and the files you upload to it. Stacks covers what you read and saved everywhere else. See Stacks vs Claude Projects.

Things to ask

“That sales data room tool I saved, starting with ‘buyer’. What was it?”
“What have I saved about writing on LinkedIn? Draft a post from the best three.”
“Pull together everything I saved about Tokyo for the trip.”
“Which screen recording tools did I save? Compare them.”

Questions

How do I give Claude access to my bookmarks and saved articles?

Save them with Stacks (the browser extension saves pages, and imports browser bookmarks, X bookmarks and LinkedIn saved posts), then add Stacks to Claude under Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector with the URL https://app.betterstacks.com/api/mcp and sign in.

Does Claude get access to everything in my account?

Claude can search and read your saves and add new ones. It cannot delete anything. You can remove the connector in Claude, or sign out in Stacks, and access stops.

Is it free?

Connecting is free on every Stacks plan. The free plan includes 20 asks a month across Stacks, Claude and ChatGPT, and keyword search in the connector. Be Productive ($36 a year) adds unlimited asks and search by meaning. Your first ask starts a 30-day trial of everything.

I don’t see “Add custom connector” in Claude.

Custom connectors are a Claude feature, and which plans and workspaces get them is up to Anthropic. If your Claude plan or workspace doesn’t offer them, you can still use Stacks in Claude Code, or in ChatGPT.

Does it work in Claude Code?

Yes. Run claude mcp add --transport http stacks https://app.betterstacks.com/api/mcp once, then /mcp inside Claude Code to sign in.
