Enable the connector in a chat
In a new chat, open the tools menu and make sure Terminal49 is enabled. Then ask:
“Using Terminal49, search for container CAIU1234567 and summarize its status.”
Custom connectors are available on Claude Free, Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one custom connector). On Team and Enterprise plans, an organization Owner must add the connector first under Organization Settings → Connectors; each member then connects their own Terminal49 account.
Test your connection
Ask Claude:“List the tools available in the Terminal49 MCP server and what they’re for.”Claude should list tools such as
search_container, track_container, and get_container. See the tools reference for the full list, and Test Numbers for containers you can use during development.
