What You Can Do

Claude excels at processing very long text. Using Linkly AI’s outline tool, Claude can first view the table of contents of a manuscript or report stored on your computer, then use read to carefully read key chapters — far more efficient than pasting the entire text, and without hitting context limits.
Let Claude use Linkly AI’s search tool to retrieve relevant notes, then use read to read them carefully before generating technical proposals, analysis reports, or meeting minute drafts — content sourced from your actual local materials, grounded and verifiable.
Claude Projects is Claude’s built-in knowledge base that can store a small number of documents. Combined with Linkly AI, you can keep your most frequently used documents in a Project and store less-used documents in a local directory, then access them through Linkly AI during conversations.

Getting Started

Once configured, ask questions directly in a Claude conversation. Claude will automatically call Linkly AI’s tools to search and read your local documents. For example:
  • “Search my documents for content about API design”
  • “Find my project requirements document and summarize the key points”

FAQ

Make sure the desktop tunnel is in a connected state. If the tunnel is disconnected, the remote MCP endpoint will be unavailable.
Try deleting the Connector in Claude settings and adding it again. Make sure your browser is logged in to linkly.ai.
