Claude Connector
Connect Anakin to Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, or the Anthropic API) as a remote MCP connector over Streamable HTTP with OAuth 2.1 — scrape, search, map, crawl, run deep research, extract structured data via Wire, monitor websites, compare AI engine answers, and run AI browser tasks, with no API-key pasting.
Last updated Jul 22, 2026
The Anakin connector gives Claude live web-data tools over remote MCP. Connect by URL and authorize with OAuth 2.1 — you never paste an API key. Anakin mints a dedicated, revocable key scoped to your account.
Server URL:
https://mcp.anakin.io/mcp· Transport: Streamable HTTP · Auth: OAuth 2.1 (Dynamic Client Registration).
Requirements
- An Anakin account with available credits — get one free at the Dashboard (300 credits, no card required). Tool calls consume credits.
- Claude.ai (Connectors), Claude Desktop (custom connector), or the Anthropic API MCP connector.
Connect
- In Claude, add a custom connector with the URL
https://mcp.anakin.io/mcp. - Claude opens an Anakin sign-in page. Log in (Google or email/password).
- Approve the consent screen. Anakin grants a dedicated Claude (MCP) key scoped to your account.
- The tools below become available.
From Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http anakin https://mcp.anakin.io/mcpChoosing which organization pays
If you belong to more than one organization, the consent screen asks which one the connector should bill, showing each organization's available credits. Everyone else skips this step.
To change it later, reconnect in Claude and choose another organization. The choice applies to every Claude app on your account.
If you're removed from an organization, connections billing it stop working, and Claude asks you to reconnect.
Tools
The connector exposes 21 tools across the Anakin product surface. Read tools are auto-permitted; write tools (marked below) are annotated as state-changing, and your MCP client asks for your confirmation before each call. The connector never executes payments or transfers funds — such actions are refused.
