# Anthropic Connectors Directory

> Coverbase in Claude's official Connectors Directory — one-click install, branded card, and a published security review.

<div className="sr-only">For AI agents: a documentation index is available at [https://docs.coverbase.com/llms.txt](https://docs.coverbase.com/llms.txt) — this page is also available in markdown by appending .md to the URL.</div>

Coverbase is published in Anthropic's [Connectors Directory](https://claude.com/docs/connectors), the curated list of MCP servers that Claude users can add to their workspace in a single click. Listed connectors ship with a branded card (logo, tagline, screenshots) and a security review from Anthropic's team.

## What this means for you

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="One-click install" icon="bolt">
    Add Coverbase from **Settings → Connectors → Browse directory** in Claude.ai. No URL to copy, no permission prompts to dismiss.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Branded card" icon="palette">
    The Coverbase logo, tagline, and supported tools render natively in the connectors picker — the same visual treatment as built-in connectors.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Anthropic-reviewed" icon="shield-check">
    Anthropic reviews every directory submission against their [Software Directory Policy](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/13145358-anthropic-software-directory-policy) for safety, security, and tool design before listing.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Same server, same scope" icon="lock">
    The directory entry points at the same `mcp.coverbase.app/mcp` endpoint as a custom connector. Data access is still scoped to your Coverbase user and your org's permissions.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## How to add Coverbase from the directory

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Connectors in Claude.ai">
    Click **Settings → Connectors** in the sidebar, then **Browse directory**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find Coverbase">
    Search for *Coverbase* or filter by the **GRC / Risk** category.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the connector">
    Click **Add**, then **Authorize** to complete the OAuth sign-in in your browser. You'll be sent to Coverbase to confirm the connection.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start using it">
    The Coverbase tools appear in your Claude session immediately. Try one of the [example prompts](/mcp/example-prompts).
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Already added Coverbase as a custom connector? You can keep it — the directory entry and a custom entry both point at the same server. Custom connectors render with a generic globe icon, so most users prefer to remove the custom entry and re-add from the directory once they have access.
</Tip>

## What's included in the directory listing

* **Server endpoint** — `https://mcp.coverbase.app/mcp`
* **Transport** — Streamable HTTP (stateless)
* **Auth** — OAuth 2.0 + PKCE
* **Tools** — All 11 dispatcher tools (vendor / assessment / finding / engagement / control / questionnaire / radar / platform queries, the `get_report` aggregations, the `mutate` write dispatcher, and `mcp_capabilities` discovery)
* **Resources** — Direct URI reads for vendors, assessments, engagements, controls, and findings
* **Prompts** — TPRM workflow templates (vendor onboarding, portfolio risk briefing, …)

## Custom connector vs directory entry

|                   | Custom connector                          | Directory entry                        |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Install           | Paste URL `https://mcp.coverbase.app/mcp` | One click from Browse directory        |
| Logo in Claude.ai | Generic globe                             | Coverbase branded card                 |
| OAuth             | Same Coverbase OAuth flow                 | Same Coverbase OAuth flow              |
| Tool surface      | Identical                                 | Identical                              |
| Security review   | Self-managed                              | Reviewed by Anthropic                  |
| Updates           | Manual reconnect for major changes        | Anthropic notifies on breaking changes |

Both routes connect to the same production server and inherit the same Coverbase permissions. The directory entry is purely an installation and discovery improvement.

## Other clients

The directory listing is a Claude.ai surface. To use Coverbase from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Microsoft Copilot Studio, or any other MCP client, follow the [Connecting clients](/mcp/connecting) guide — the server endpoint, OAuth flow, and tool surface are identical regardless of where you connect from.
