Practical guide

Connect Claude
to Arkon Vault

Add the Vault MCP URL as a custom connector, copy the private setup into Claude, and run preflight — same private project memory as your other AIs.

01Stop rebuilt briefsWhen work moves between Claude and ChatGPT, avoid starting over.
02One private placeVision, decisions, and next step for every authorized AI.
03No pasted token in chatPut the private setup in Claude’s custom connector, not in the conversation.

Why connect

Keep vision and next step in one place.

When work moves between Claude and ChatGPT (or Codex), the cost is usually a rebuilt brief. Arkon Vault keeps vision, decisions, and the next step in one private place every authorized AI can read and update.

  1. 01

    Copy the private setup

    In Vault, copy the Claude custom-connector setup for https://vault.arkoncybersecurity.com/mcp.

  2. 02

    Add the custom connector

    In Claude, add a custom connector with that MCP URL and the copied setup.

  3. 03

    Keep the credential out of chat

    Never paste a Vault token into the conversation.

  4. 04

    Ask for preflight

    Ask Claude to run preflight on your active project before substantial edits.

Continuity loop

Preflight → work → handoff → continue.

The second AI should see the authoritative project and next step without a pasted re-brief.

PreflightFind the authoritative project and single next action.
WorkAttach decisions and progress to the project.
HandoffSave result, blocker, next action, done criteria — then claim in a second AI.

Privacy

Deliberate tool input only.

Boundary

Tool input, not silent capture

Deliberate tool input only. Optional Arkon Sync (Windows) is separate and does not upload complete raw transcripts.

First Five

Pressure-test one handoff

Pressure-test one real cross-AI handoff with content-free feedback at /first-five.

Keep going

Open Vault. First Five. Or start Solo.

Prefer Solo? Solo is $12/month at current catalog prices — connect two AIs and run the same continuity loop without waiting on the program.
