Claude connection problems¶
Claude cannot connect to MindGravity¶
- Claude Desktop is required. In Settings…, go to AI Connection (MCP) → Install Claude Extension, then choose Install in Claude Desktop.
- If it still does not connect, choose Install Claude Extension again to reinstall it, then quit and restart Claude Desktop.
- Claude Desktop asks for permission the first time Claude uses an operation. Allow it.
Even when MindGravity is not running, Claude can read the last project you opened.
Claude cannot read the open folder¶
MindGravity asks for permission the first time Claude accesses the folder open in the Files tab. Choose Allow. If you do not respond within 60 seconds, access is denied. To always allow access, turn on Allow AI access to the folder open in Files in Settings… → AI Connection (MCP). Claude Desktop also prompts the first time each operation is used.
