How to connect Claude to your Linux server (custom MCP connector)
Add AskYourStack as a connector in Claude and ask your first question.
1. Add AskYourStack to Claude
- In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector.
- Name it AskYourStack and paste https://askyourstack.com/mcp (the same address for everyone). Leave the OAuth fields empty.
- Press Connect.
2. Sign in and allow
- An AskYourStack page opens: sign in if it asks, check that it is Claude asking, and press Allow.
- Back in a chat, open the tools menu and make sure AskYourStack is switched on.
- Prefer not to sign in from the client? The Dashboard's Step 3 also offers a private address: it is the key itself, so keep it to yourself. Each connected app can be ended under Security.
3. Ask something
Try: What runs on my server, and is anything wrong? Claude calls server_facts and health_report and answers in plain words. The Dashboard shows Connection confirmed after the first call.
