First connect an Engine. Open Connect in the App. The supported assistant shown there is Claude. The ChatGPT tab is disabled and is not an available connection flow.
1

Copy the details shown in Connect

Copy the Connection URL and Client ID provided by your account. Do not construct a URL from the machine name or copy an Engine admin token into this flow.
2

Add the connection in Claude

In Claude’s connector settings, add a custom connection using those details. Follow its sign-in flow back to Nerdit. Review the requesting client and the machines being authorized before approving.
3

Review access

Return to Connect. When an account connection is enabled, review Machines this connection can reach. Select the required machines and choose Save to update an existing approval.
4

Try a read first

Ask the assistant to list the available machines or services using the tools offered by its connection. Verify the selected machine before asking it to deploy, change, or stop anything.

If Connect shows per-machine connections

Some deployments have not enabled the account connection. The page then shows Per-machine connections and a URL for each machine. Use the URL shown for the intended machine and the displayed client ID. Each connection reaches that machine; do not substitute an account-wide URL. If there is no client ID or connection URL, follow the message on the page and contact support. Those values depend on operator configuration.

Disconnect or reduce access

Use Disconnect Claude on Connect to revoke its account approval when that control is available. To end connected-app and dashboard access together, use Security → Revoke access. Reconnecting requires a new approval. Remote access is still subject to the Engine’s permissions and service ownership. Linking a machine does not make every local administrative action available to an assistant. See Engine security and MCP setup and reference for direct Engine connections.
