BOB Tools Connector for Claude
Last Updated: August 8, 2026
The BOB Tools connector lets Claude work directly with your BOB Tools workspace: query and aggregate your records, build and restructure forms, manage documents, share links, automations and integrations — using natural language. It is a remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server hosted by us:
https://api.bob.tools/mcpWhat you can do
- Reports and analytics: "How many orders came in this week, grouped by status?" — Claude queries and aggregates your records.
- Build structure: create a form with fields, configure views, set up a public share link — all from a conversation.
- Documents: assemble block-based documents and dashboards from your live data.
- Bulk work: imports, mass updates, and record clean-ups.
- Communications: read and reply in Telegram chats linked to your workspace.
How to connect
You need a BOB Tools account — sign up free at web.bob.tools or install the Android / iOS app.
In Claude (web, desktop, or mobile):
- Open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector (or find BOB Tools in the connectors directory once listed).
- Enter the server URL:
https://api.bob.tools/mcp - Claude redirects you to BOB Tools to sign in and authorize access (OAuth 2.0). No API keys to copy — you approve access with your own account.
- Back in a chat, enable the connector and ask Claude something like "List my BOB companies and files".
The same URL works in any MCP-compatible client that supports remote servers with OAuth — for example Claude Code (claude mcp add --transport http bob-tools https://api.bob.tools/mcp).
Available tools
The connector exposes a compact set of tools, one per area of the product. Claude picks the right tool and action for your request; write and delete operations always go through Claude's confirmation flow.

Data access and privacy
- You authenticate with your own BOB Tools account via OAuth 2.0. Claude sees exactly the companies and files your account can access — nothing more.
- Data is transferred only when Claude calls a tool on your request, over HTTPS.
- We do not use the content passed through the connector to train AI models.
- You can disconnect at any time: remove the connector in Claude's Settings → Connectors, which revokes its access.
- How we collect, store, and protect data is described in our Privacy Policy.
