Org-wide connector setup in Claude.ai typically flows through to Claude Desktop for users signed into the same Claude organization — but it does not configure Claude Tag in Slack. See Org-wide setup is per surface. Complete the shared steps in MCP Setup first. For org-wide setup, generate an Organization MCP API Token with a label like claude. Set up a custom connector at claude.ai/customize/connectors → Add custom connector:
Add custom connector in Claude.ai
Fill in a label and the GetWhys MCP server URL. Claude.ai’s connector UI doesn’t expose a field for a custom header on this flow, so use the query-string fallback rather than the header method:

Alternative: individual connector (OAuth)

Same steps as above, but paste just https://api.getwhys.io/mcp with no token — you’ll be sent to GetWhys to sign in and authorize with your own account.

Then follow the steps in your browser to log in. Using an Organization MCP API Token:
Without the skill, Claude may not consistently know when to reach for GetWhys during a conversation. The skill gives Claude clear instructions for when to call GetWhys tools, what workflow to follow, and how to apply results — which makes GetWhys meaningfully more reliable in day-to-day use. Install it alongside the MCP connector for every org. The skill is a companion to the MCP server, not a replacement — it won’t do anything without the MCP connected.
  1. Download the skill.
Or pin to a specific version: .../releases/download/vX.Y.Z/validate-gtm-output.zip. You do not need to unzip it — upload the .zip as-is.
  1. One-time org setup (first install only). Log in to claude.ai as an org admin → Organization Settings → Skills → enable both Skills and Code execution & file creation.
The GetWhys skill doesn’t execute code or create files itself — it only guides Claude in calling GetWhys MCP tools. Code execution & file creation is a platform-level prerequisite for Claude’s Skills feature generally, not something this specific skill uses.
  1. Add the skill. Still under Organization Settings → Skills, find Organization skills → + Add → select the validate-gtm-output.zip you downloaded.
Updating later: re-download the latest zip and repeat step 3. If you pinned a specific version, bump the URL and re-upload.

Verify

Ask Claude the verify prompt: “Who am I in GetWhys?”

Next: Claude Tag in Slack

If you also want GetWhys inside Anthropic’s @Claude in Slack, that is a separate setup — see Claude Tag. That is not the GetWhys Slack bot.
