3. Run claude mcp list. It should say Connected.

Test it: Ask: show my 3 newest leads in Close.

What it can do: Read leads, contacts, deals and calls. You pick the level when you sign in: read only, safe writes, or full writes.

What it can't do: Read only can't make or change anything. Safe writes can't edit old fields or delete.

Using a key instead? Close shows how to send it as a header from an env var. Read only is mcp.read.
