Claude + Norbix

Your backend as a connector. Add it once, use it everywhere Claude runs.

Connects through MCP Acts with the roles you pick No key in any file
Where Claude fits

Claude speaks MCP, so it calls the hosted server.

Every Norbix installation is an MCP server — the hosted address below, nothing to install. The tool signs in with OAuth in your browser and gets described tools marked read or change.

Connect

Connect Claude to Norbix

The blocks below are the ones Cloud shows for the managed service. On your own installation Cloud fills in your own addresses.

Recommended

Custom connector — recommended

Claude on the web and in the desktop app share the same connectors: add it once, use it in both. Cowork — Claude's desktop agent — sees it too.

  1. 1
    Add a custom connector
    text
    https://hub.norbix.ai/v3/account/mcp

    In Claude open Customize → Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector. Name it Norbix and paste the MCP address below as the remote MCP server URL — with https, with /v3, without a slash at the end.

  2. 2
    OAuth client

    Keep Use Claude's published identity (Register automatically works too). Leave Request headers empty. Click Add, then Connect.

  3. 3
    Allow in Cloud

    Your browser opens Cloud's consent screen: pick the roles Claude gets and press Allow. Back in a chat, click + → Connectors and switch Norbix on.

Alternative

Or the config file (Claude Desktop)

Claude Desktop's config file starts local servers, so it reaches the hosted server through the mcp-remote bridge.

  1. 1
    Add the bridge
    claude_desktop_config.json
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "norbix": {
          "command": "npx",
          "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://hub.norbix.ai/v3/account/mcp"]
        }
      }
    }

    Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Restart Claude Desktop; the consent screen names the tool MCP CLI Proxy (the bridge).

Team and Enterprise plans

Only an owner can add a custom connector: Organization settings → Connectors → Add → Custom → Web, same name, URL and OAuth client. Members then find it under Customize → Connectors and click Connect. The Free plan allows one custom connector.

Then ask

A first prompt

Claude calls a read tool, for example get_database_taxonomies, and turns the JSON into a list. Ask for a change and the tool either goes through (Administrator) or answers "Caller is missing required permission" (Viewer).

you

Show the taxonomies of my Norbix project.

→ get_database_taxonomies
{"ok":true,"data":{"list":{"items":[…]}}}
…turned into a list.

Built in

Guardrails the agent cannot skip

Roles you pick

OAuth opens Cloud's consent screen. You tick the projects and roles the tool gets — Viewer, Developer, Data Editor, Administrator or your own.

Never as you

The tool acts as an AI service user. Remove it under Account → AI service users and it is signed out.

Asks before it acts

Every tool is marked read or change. Tools that send messages, delete or change a lot answer requires_confirmation first.

Everything in Logs

Every call the tool makes is in Logs with its correlation id, like any other request.

No copy-paste needed

Cloud writes the block for your installation

Open your avatar → Connect your AI in Cloud. It holds a prompt you can paste into any AI tool, the Hub, API and MCP addresses of your installation, and one tab per tool with the exact commands — including the key variants for CI.
