How to connect Claude to Zaaheen

Connect it

Agents › Connect

Zaaheen connects to the Claude app for your computer. It saves a small Claude extension, and Claude asks you to install it. Zaaheen never changes Claude's settings itself.

  1. In Zaaheen, open the Agents tab and choose + Connect an AI app.
  2. Choose Claude Desktop, then Connect it for me.
  3. Claude asks you to install Zaaheen. Click Install, and it's connected.

If Claude doesn't ask

Claude › Settings

Zaaheen saves the extension to your Downloads folder. In Claude, open Settings, then Extensions, then Advanced settings, then Install Extension, and choose "Zaaheen for Claude.mcpb".

Add the setting yourself

Claude › Developer

If Zaaheen says it couldn't find, save or open Claude, add the setting yourself. In Claude, open Settings, then Developer, then Edit Config. Add this to the file it shows you, save it, then quit Claude and open it again:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zaaheen": {
      "command": "C:\\Program Files\\Zaaheen\\zaaheen.exe",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

That is where Zaaheen usually installs. The Agents tab shows the setting for your computer exactly, ready to copy.

Check it worked

Claude › Extensions

In Claude, open Settings, then Extensions. Zaaheen is listed there and switched on.

Make Claude check Zaaheen

Claude › Settings

Claude looks in its own memory first and may stop there. So it checks Zaaheen as well, add this line to your personal preferences in Claude's Settings:

Before answering anything about me, my preferences, my work or my plans, also check my Zaaheen memory, even when your own memory has nothing.
