Project Paced for Claude

Last updated: September 14, 2026

Project Paced connects to Claude as a custom connector, so you can build and maintain project timelines in the same conversation where you are already doing the thinking. Claude can draft a timeline from a project brief, report on portfolio capacity, read your weekly PMO status report, and move milestone dates, without you switching applications or copying data between tools.

The connection uses the Model Context Protocol, an open standard for connecting AI assistants to external systems.

What Claude can do once connected

• Generate a full project timeline from a plain description of the work
• List your projects and retrieve any timeline with its milestones
• Report on who is over-allocated across the portfolio, and over which months
• Read the Command Centre project health view, including key person risk and available capacity
• Read the weekly PMO status report, including RAG status, trend and decisions needed
• Update milestone dates and completion status

Read-only tools do not consume an AI timeline generation from your plan allowance.

Connect Claude with OAuth

No API key is required. Claude opens a Project Paced sign-in page and completes the connection for you.

Claude Pro or Max

1. Open Customise, then Connectors
2. Select +, then Add custom connector
3. Enter https://mcp.projectpaced.com/mcp
4. Select Add
5. Choose your instance, Global or EU, then sign in and authorise the connection

Claude Team or Enterprise

1. An owner opens Organisation settings, then Connectors
2. Select Add, then Custom, then Web
3. Enter https://mcp.projectpaced.com/mcp
4. Team members open Customise, then Connectors, and select Connect

Enable Project Paced for a given conversation from Claude's + menu.

Custom connectors are available across Claude web, desktop and Cowork. Claude Free accounts may be limited to a single custom connector.

Connect Claude Code with an API key

Create an API key under Profile, then API Access at app.projectpaced.com, then run:

claude mcp add --transport http projectpaced \
  https://mcp.projectpaced.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer pp_your_key_here"

Store the key in an environment variable where your tooling supports it.

Example requests

• "Draft a timeline for a twelve week CRM migration starting in October"
• "Which people are over-allocated in Q4, and on which projects?"
• "Summarise the Command Centre health for the Atlas rollout"
• "Show me the latest weekly update and tell me what needs a decision"
• "Move the beta launch milestone to 15 July and mark discovery as complete"

Plans and limits

Reading Command Centre dashboards and status reports does not count against timeline generation limits.

Data handling

The connector transmits only the data required for the tool call you ask Claude to run. Organisations with an EU residency requirement can connect to the European instance by selecting EU during sign-in, which routes every request to our EU backend. See EU data residency and our Privacy Policy for details.

Full setup instructions for every supported client are in the MCP server documentation.
