Claude drafts the release notes, the spec, the meeting summary — and it stays in that conversation. Add TransformPipe as a connector and Claude saves each one to your account, keeps its versions, and hands you a link that opens as a finished page.
https://transformpipe.com/api/mcp · Full setup guide
Four sentences that do something once the connector is added — on claude.ai, in Claude Desktop and in Claude Code alike.
The document goes into your account under a title Claude picks, and you can rename it later. It is there tomorrow, on another device, with the conversation long gone — and it does not depend on remembering which chat it was in.
“Save this as the Q3 plan.” — Saved · Q3 plan
Claude saves the document, shares it and answers with the address. Whoever opens it sees a finished page and needs no Claude account. Share it with anyone who has the link or only with the addresses you name; revoke it and the link stops working, even one already sent.
“Publish it and give me the link.” — Link created · transformpipe.com/s/…
Claude lists your documents and opens the one you meant — including one written in another conversation, in Claude Code, or by another assistant altogether.
“Find the migration spec from last week.” — Found · Migration spec, 16 Sep
An update is kept as a new version beside the old one, and Claude can read both and tell you what moved.
“Update the spec and keep the old version.” — v1 → v2 · both kept
An artifact is a good way to look at something while the conversation is open. A document here is for everything after that.
| Claude artifact | TransformPipe | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | In the conversation that made it | In your account, outside any chat |
| Finding it later | Remembering which chat it was | Search, or ask Claude in any conversation |
| Documents from other tools | Claude only | One list, whichever assistant wrote it |
| Sharing | Published as a public page | A link, or only named addresses; revoke any time |
| Versions | Within that conversation | Kept across conversations and tools |
| Taking it elsewhere | Copy the content out | Download as Markdown or a finished HTML file |
One address, `https://transformpipe.com/api/mcp`. There is no key and nothing to generate.
On claude.ai or in Claude Desktop: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector. Paste the address and give it a name.
Sign in with Google when Claude asks. From the next conversation, “save this” does what it says.
One command, in any terminal. The first time a tool is used, Claude Code opens the same sign-in in your browser.
claude mcp add --transport http transformpipe https://transformpipe.com/api/mcpA grant can be limited to reading. That is enforced on the credential itself, so it holds whatever a document the assistant reads tries to tell it.
Removing the connector in Claude’s settings revokes its access at once. Your documents stay until you delete them.
500 documents and 100 MB an account, 4 MB a document. Reaching a limit refuses the save; nothing is deleted to make room.
What Claude saves, the others will be able to find — one account, whichever tool is asking. These are being tested next.
Custom connector · sign in with Google. claude.ai, Claude Desktop and Claude Code — connected today, with the steps on this page.
Developer mode connector. ChatGPT takes custom MCP connectors in developer mode, on the plans that offer it. The sign-in is being tried against this server now.
Remote MCP server. Cursor adds remote MCP servers with a sign-in, but returns from it to the editor through its own link scheme, which this server does not accept yet. That is the part being worked on.
Gemini CLI, remote MCP. Gemini CLI adds remote MCP servers with a sign-in through the browser, the same way Claude Code does, and is next to be tried.
Copilot agent mode, remote MCP. GitHub Copilot’s agent mode in VS Code connects to remote MCP servers and signs in through the browser. Being tested.
Remote MCP server. Windsurf’s assistant takes remote MCP servers too. Whether its sign-in completes against this server is still to be checked.
A custom connector is how Claude reaches a tool outside the conversation, over MCP, the Model Context Protocol. TransformPipe is an MCP server at `https://transformpipe.com/api/mcp`; added as a connector on claude.ai, in Claude Desktop or in Claude Code, it gives Claude tools to save, share, find and version the documents it writes.
Yes, with no plan to pick and no card to enter. An account holds 500 documents and 100 MB of Markdown, and a single document can be up to 4 MB. Reaching a limit refuses the save and says so rather than quietly deleting an older document to make room.
No. Adding the connector in Claude sends you through a normal sign-in, and that sign-in is the account — there is no separate registration, no API key to generate and nothing to paste. The same account works on the website, so what Claude saves is there when you sign in on another device.
Ask Claude to save it: “save this”, or “save this as the release notes”. Instead of copying Markdown out of the chat, Claude sends it to your account, where it gets a title, a place in a searchable list and a version history, and can be downloaded as a Markdown file or a finished, self-contained HTML page.
Ask Claude to publish it. It saves the document, shares it and answers with the address: a finished page with headings, tables and code rendered, not raw Markdown. Share it with anyone who has the link, or make it a read-only document link that only the email addresses you name can open, and revoke it at any time.
No. Documents you save are not read by us and they are not used to train any model. They are stored in your account, reachable by you and by the assistants you connected, until you delete them — and deleting one removes it rather than hiding it.
Only one document at a time, and only with an explicit confirmation in the same request, so a vague instruction cannot empty an account. A read-only grant can list, open and summarise your documents but cannot save, share or delete anything, and that limit is enforced on the credential itself rather than on what Claude is told.
Claude loses access immediately: removing the connector in Claude’s settings revokes the grant. Your documents stay in your account, and the links you already shared keep working until you revoke them yourself. Connecting again later picks up the same account and the same documents.
No. A shared document is read-only for whoever opens it: they can read the page and download it, but they cannot change it, delete it or pass the share on — and they do not need a Claude account to open it.
Yes. One command adds it — `claude mcp add --transport http transformpipe https://transformpipe.com/api/mcp` — and the first tool call opens the same sign-in in your browser. It is the same account, so a document saved from Claude Code is there on claude.ai and in Claude Desktop, and the other way round.
No. TransformPipe is an independent MCP server, not an Anthropic product. Claude connects to it the way it connects to any custom connector, using the standard sign-in the Model Context Protocol defines.
