Question 1

Do I need to paste an API key into Claude?

Accepted Answer

No. VoiceBrief for Claude uses OAuth through VoiceBrief and Clerk. You sign in to VoiceBrief and approve read-only access instead of pasting an API token or password into Claude.

Question 2

What can Claude read after I connect VoiceBrief?

Accepted Answer

VoiceBrief currently exposes 24 read-only tools: 15 connected-account data capabilities, six product-guidance tools, one capability contract, and two compatibility aliases. Claude can inspect owned documents, account usage details, study dashboards, due reviews, professor and podcast transcripts, quizzes, slides, listening state, bookmarks, folders, processing status, and current product guidance.

Question 3

Can Claude upload files, change billing, or delete anything in VoiceBrief?

Accepted Answer

No. The current VoiceBrief Claude connector is read-only. Uploads, imports, generation mutations, billing changes, token management, deletes, folder moves, share creation, and progress writes are excluded.

Question 4

How do I disconnect VoiceBrief from Claude?

Accepted Answer

Disconnect the custom connector in Claude under Customize and Connectors. VoiceBrief validates OAuth on every MCP request, so disconnected access stops on the next call.
