Claude and Tana, both directions
Connect Claude to your Tana workspace over MCP, then ask it to pull up your notes, draft from them, and write changes back as proposals you approve. Connect from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or claude.ai. Tana also hands the current document or chat to Claude Code as a ready-to-run prompt in a project folder you choose.

Frequently asked questions
- Does Tana work with Claude Code?
- Yes, both ways. Claude Code can connect to Tana over MCP to search your workspace, draft from your notes, and write changes back as proposals you approve. And Tana can hand the current document or chat to Claude Code as a self-contained prompt launched in a project folder you choose.
- Does the Tana connection work in Claude Desktop and claude.ai?
- Yes. Tana works in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and claude.ai through the same MCP server. In Desktop and claude.ai you add the Tana plugin from Customize, Plugins; in Claude Code you install the same plugin with two commands in the terminal. The plugin brings the connector plus Tana's skills for meetings. Without plugins, on Claude's Free plan, connect Tana from Customize, Connectors instead.
- Where do Claude's changes show up in Tana?
- Each connection runs as its own chat in your Library, and Claude's writes arrive there as proposals. Nothing changes in your workspace until you accept it, so you can review, edit, or discard each change the same way you review Tana's built-in chat.
