claude.ai
claude.ai supports custom Remote MCP connectors on Pro, Team, and Enterprise plans. The free plan does not expose connectors. Once added, the connector is available in every chat under your account.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- A claude.ai account on Pro, Team, or Enterprise.
- A Consilio account that can sign in at
auth.ai.consilio.com. - A modern browser (the OAuth flow uses a popup window).
Add the connector
Section titled “Add the connector”- Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
- Paste the Aurora MCP endpoint:
https://mcp.ai.consilio.com
- Name it Consilio (or whatever’s memorable for you).
- Click Add.
claude.ai fetches https://mcp.ai.consilio.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource,
discovers Consilio Identity as the authorisation server, and immediately initiates
the OAuth handshake. You don’t paste a client ID, secret, or scope list —
the protocol handles all of it.
Authorise
Section titled “Authorise”Claude will open a browser tab for auth.ai.consilio.com. Sign in as
yourself. SSO and MFA work as they do on the Consilio portal.
You’ll then see a consent screen describing the requested scopes (read-only access to your matters, workspaces, documents, and tickets). Approve it; the tab closes itself and claude.ai lights up the new connector.
Verify
Section titled “Verify”Back in claude.ai, start a new chat and try:
Show me my active matters for Coho Capital.
You should see your assistant invoke the searchMatters tool and return
your matters. Every answer is scoped to what you can already see in the
Consilio portal — nothing more, nothing less.
If you don’t see the Consilio chip in the chat composer, click the Connectors icon in the composer and toggle Consilio on for this chat.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting””Connector failed to authenticate”
Section titled “”Connector failed to authenticate””The OAuth tab closed before the handshake finished, or your browser
blocked the popup. Re-authorise from
Settings → Connectors → Consilio → Reconnect, allowing popups for
claude.ai and auth.ai.consilio.com.
”No matters returned”
Section titled “”No matters returned””You have no matters matching the query. Verify portal access at
portal.consilio.com first; Aurora MCP only ever returns matters you can
already see there.
Connector appears but tool calls error with 401
Section titled “Connector appears but tool calls error with 401”Token expired or audience binding rejected the request. Click Reconnect on the connector card to refresh.
Connector toggle is greyed out
Section titled “Connector toggle is greyed out”Custom connectors are off at the workspace level (Enterprise only). Ask your workspace admin to enable Custom Connectors in workspace settings.
Tool call returns “ElicitationUnsupportedError”
Section titled “Tool call returns “ElicitationUnsupportedError””Aurora MCP needs to ask you a clarifying question (e.g. “which matter?”) but claude.ai didn’t surface the elicitation prompt. Re-ask with a narrower query — include the matter alpha-code or full client name.
