I'm confused about how the Claude integration works? Do you work in Claude? Or do you somehow use Claude within Articulate? If you just work in Claude, how does it know you are working on something that will be used in Articulate? 

I use Claude for all sorts of things, so I'm assuming integrating it with Articulate still allows me to use Claude for non-training items?

    Hey MattNagy​,

    Great questions.

    You'll still work entirely in Claude. Nothing changes about where you chat or how you access it. "Articulate MCP" is simply a Connector you can turn on inside a Claude conversation that lets that specific chat reach into your Articulate 360 account.

    When it's enabled, just describe your course topic, audience, and goals in Claude, and AI generates a draft outline (or Frontline kit). The output shows up in your Articulate 360 training library, ready for you to build on. Check out this video to see that process in action!

    To your follow-up questions:

    How does Claude know something's "For Articulate"?

    It doesn't guess or monitor in the background. Nothing gets created in your Articulate account unless you explicitly:

    1. Turn the Connector on for that chat (plus icon > Connectors > toggle Articulate MCP on).
    2. Describe the training you want (topic, audience, goals).
    3. Click Allow when Claude asks permission to run the task.

     

    There's always a deliberate opt-in and a permission prompt before anything touches your Articulate account.

    Can I still use Claude for everything else?

    Yes. The Connector is opt-in per conversation, not an account-wide mode. If you don't toggle it on in a given chat, Claude works exactly as it always has. With zero connection to Articulate.

    Even when it's enabled, it's scoped narrowly. It can only generate draft outlines/kits or list your existing training. It's not a backdoor into your full Articulate account. It can't publish, share, or pull analytics on your behalf. Those actions still only occur directly in Rise or Frontline.

    Let me know if you have any more questions.
