Connect Claude
Connect your brain, then give Claude one memory to save and recall.
Use an approved Deep Recall account. Start in Claude’s Chat tab for this guide; Claude Code setup is separate. Workspace policies can restrict uploads and connectors.
Install the plugin
Section titled “Install the plugin”Download the Claude plugin. In Claude, open Customize → Plugins → Add → Upload plugin, select the ZIP, and upload it. The memory skill is included.
Connect your brain
Section titled “Connect your brain”Open the Deep Recall plugin → Connectors. Add its connector if needed and choose Connect. Sign in to Deep Recall and review the permissions.
Look for Connected. Installing the plugin alone does not authorize the connection.
Add the connector
Section titled “Add the connector”Open Customize → Connectors → Add → Add custom connector. Name it Deep Recall and use this URL:
https://api.getdeeprecall.com/mcpChoose Continue. Keep Sign in now and Use Claude’s published identity selected when those options appear. Leave request headers empty. Sign in to Deep Recall and review permissions.
Add the memory skill
Section titled “Add the memory skill”Download the memory skill, then use Customize → Skills → Add → Upload skill if available. The skill supplies memory guidance; it does not connect your account.
Let Claude use it naturally
Section titled “Let Claude use it naturally”In Deep Recall’s connection guide, copy the memory instruction. Add it alongside your existing text in Claude’s Settings → Account → Instructions for Claude.
The instruction asks Claude to recall relevant context and save useful user-stated facts, decisions, and temporary plans. Automatic use remains best effort. For an important save or search, ask explicitly.
Try it in a new chat
Section titled “Try it in a new chat”Use Deep Recall to remember that I prefer quiet places for dinner.After processing finishes, find that memory through Deep Recall and show its source.Verify an actual tool call and a retrieved memory. A queued save needs time to process. Try a fresh conversation to check that the answer is coming from saved memory.
If an option is missing
Section titled “If an option is missing”On Team or Enterprise, ask an owner about custom connectors or plugin uploads. In a chat, use + → Connectors to enable Deep Recall if it is unavailable. A skill cannot enable a connector your account does not support.
Provider menus change. See Claude’s connector guidance and plugin guidance, or troubleshoot the connection.
