Custom Connectors

Connect Nimble to Claude Code

Make Claude log activities and move deals in Nimble. From the terminal, inside the sessions where you already work.

How do you connect Nimble to Claude Code?

Claude Code reaches outside tools through MCP servers. To connect Nimble, you add a Nimble MCP server: a small hosted service that exposes Nimble's data and actions over the Model Context Protocol. With a custom connector we build for you, that is one command in the terminal, then an OAuth sign-in with your own Nimble account. No API keys pasted into config files.

claude mcp add --transport http nimble https://your-connector-url/mcp

Then run /mcp inside a Claude Code session to sign in. Add it with --scope project and the connector is checked into the repo for your whole team.

What can Claude Code do in Nimble once connected?

Full read-write Nimble access lets Claude create and update contacts and companies, log notes and activities against the right record, move a deal to its next pipeline stage, and keep tags and custom fields current. The follow-up that used to mean tabbing back into the CRM happens where your relationships already live.

  • Create or update a contact or company record
  • Log a note, call, or meeting as an activity on the right record
  • Update a deal's value, expected close date, or custom fields
  • Move a deal to its next pipeline stage
  • Add or remove tags to segment contacts for outreach
  • Create a follow-up task and assign it to the right owner

One connector, every Claude surface

The connector we build is a remote MCP server, which is the same standard claude.ai and Claude Desktop use. Add it once and the same Nimble access works in Claude Code for you, in claude.ai for the rest of the team, and in Claude Desktop. One build, one set of permissions, one monthly plan covering all of them.

Build it yourself, or have it built?

If you live in the terminal, you can absolutely write your own MCP server against the Nimble API. The protocol is open. What you take on is everything around the happy path: OAuth token refresh, hosting, monitoring, keeping up when Nimble changes its API and when the MCP spec itself moves, and scoping write actions so an agent can never do more than you intended. We build Nimble connectors with separated read and write tools and approval gates on destructive actions, then host and maintain them so they keep working while you work.

Frequently asked questions

Does the same Nimble connector work in claude.ai and Claude Code?
Yes. It is one remote MCP server. Claude Code adds it with a single "claude mcp add" command; claude.ai and Claude Desktop add it as a custom connector in Settings. Each person signs in with their own Nimble account, so access always matches what that person can already see and do.
Do I need to host or maintain anything myself?
No. The connector runs as a hosted service we operate: we handle uptime, token health, API changes on Nimble's side, and MCP spec migrations under the monthly plan. Your side is one command in the terminal and an OAuth sign-in.
Is it safe to give a coding agent write access to Nimble?
Write access is scoped, not blanket. Read tools and write tools are separated, destructive actions like deleting or sending are gated behind your explicit approval, and the connector can never exceed the permissions of the Nimble account it signs in with. Revoking access is one click in Nimble.
