Step-by-Step Guide • 3-Minute Setup

Connect Claude to Your Skool Community

Schedule posts, check your content calendar, and manage your Skool community — all by chatting with Claude. Add StickyHive as a custom connector in Claude, paste one URL, and you're done.

What You Need

  • A Skool community (any plan — free or paid)
  • Google Chrome (for the StickyHive extension that connects to Skool)
  • A Claude account (Free, Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise)
  • 3 minutes of setup time
1

Install StickyHive & Connect Your Skool

Connect your community with our Chrome extension. During installation, you'll create your StickyHive account and connect your Skool community — all in one flow.

Once done, StickyHive can see your spaces (posting categories) and schedule posts on your behalf. The 14-day free trial includes full MCP access — we'll remind you before your trial ends.

How it works: The extension uses your existing Skool session (the same one you're already logged into). It doesn't require your Skool password and can't do anything you couldn't do yourself.

Add StickyHive as a Custom Connector in Claude

Claude calls remote MCP servers custom connectors, and you can add one in a few clicks, no config files needed:

  1. Open Claude and go to Customize → Connectors
  2. Click "+ Add" then "Add custom connector"
  3. Name it StickyHive and paste the MCP server URL:
MCP Server URL
https://stickyhive.ai/mcp/
  1. Click "Add". Claude redirects you to StickyHive to sign in and authorize access
  2. Approve the connection — done!

Claude will show "stickyhive" in your Connectors list. The connection uses OAuth 2.0 — secure, industry-standard, and no API keys to manage.

Works everywhere: This connector works on claude.ai, Claude Desktop, and Claude mobile apps. Your connection syncs across all Claude clients.

On a Team or Enterprise plan? An owner adds the connector once under Organization settings → Connectors (Add → Custom → Web), then each member connects from Customize → Connectors. Free Claude plans can add one custom connector.

Start Managing Your Skool with Claude

Open a new Claude conversation and try these commands:

Try These First

Test connection: "List my Skool spaces"
Check your calendar: "What posts do I have scheduled this week?"
Schedule a post: "Create a post titled 'Monday Motivation' with the content 'What's one thing you're grateful for today? Drop it below.' Schedule it for Monday at 9am in my Community space."
Find gaps: "Find available time slots in my content calendar for next week"
Batch schedule: "Take my 3 most recent drafts and schedule them Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday at 10am"

Permissions and Tools

When you add the connector, Claude sends you to StickyHive to sign in and approve access. The approval screen lists what Claude will be able to do. Claude then acts as you: it can only reach what your StickyHive account can, in the Skool communities and social accounts you've connected.

Read mcp:read

View your communities and spaces, synced posts and comments, scheduled posts and drafts, workflows and their run history, DM sequences and enrollments, courses, lead pages and their submissions, the community health audit, and your connected social accounts. These tools are marked read-only.

Write mcp:write

Create, change and delete: schedule and publish posts to your Skool community, edit courses, lead pages and your about page, and build and run workflows and DM sequences, which can send direct messages to your members. Claude asks for Read and Write together when you connect.

Publish to social mcp:publish

Off unless you tick the box on the approval screen. It lets Claude schedule, publish, unschedule and retry posts on your Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok and LinkedIn accounts. Without it, Claude can only prepare social drafts for you to review. Publishing to Skool is part of Write, not this permission.

Safeguards: Tools that delete data, publish, or message members are marked destructive, so Claude asks you before running them. Team members limited to selected communities can't use the connector. Claude's access token lasts 24 hours and renews automatically; if the connector goes unused for 30 days, or 90 days after you approved it, you sign in again.

Disconnecting: Remove StickyHive under Customize → Connectors in Claude. Changing your StickyHive password, or being removed from the StickyHive workspace, also ends every connection. StickyHive works through the Skool session you connected with the Chrome extension; Claude never sees your Skool login.

Using Cursor, Windsurf, or Other MCP Clients?

For tools that don't have a built-in connector UI, add StickyHive to your MCP config file:

  1. Go to your StickyHive dashboard → Settings → Developer
  2. Click "Create API Key" and copy it (starts with hm_live_)
  3. Add to your tool's MCP config:
Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stickyhive": {
      "url": "https://stickyhive.ai/mcp/",
      "transport": "sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer hm_live_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Common Questions

Is there a Claude connector for Skool?

Skool doesn't publish its own Claude connector, but you can add StickyHive as a custom connector and Claude gets access to your Skool community. In Claude go to Customize → Connectors, click + Add, choose Add custom connector, and paste https://stickyhive.ai/mcp/. Then sign in to StickyHive to approve access. It works on claude.ai, Claude Desktop and the Claude mobile apps.

How do I add a custom connector in Claude?

On Free, Pro or Max, go to Customize → Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector. Enter a name and the remote MCP server URL, review the sign-in settings, and click Add. On Team or Enterprise, an owner first adds it under Organization settings → Connectors (Add → Custom → Web), then each member connects from Customize → Connectors. Free Claude plans are limited to one custom connector.

Can Claude post to Skool?

Yes, with StickyHive's MCP server connected. Claude can create posts, schedule them, add polls, pin posts, and manage your entire content calendar — all through natural conversation.

Is it free?

StickyHive has a 14-day free trial with full MCP access. We'll remind you before your trial ends. After the trial, plans start at $29/month and include MCP on all tiers. On Claude's side, custom connectors work on every plan, including Free (Free plans are limited to one custom connector).

Does this work with Cursor too?

Yes. Cursor, Windsurf, Cline and other MCP clients use the same server URL plus an API key from StickyHive's Settings → Developer page (see the config above). In Claude you don't need a key: add it as a custom connector and sign in.

What if I don't use Claude at all?

You can still use StickyHive's web dashboard and AI content calendar to generate and schedule content — MCP just adds the option to manage everything through AI conversation.

Is my Skool account safe?

Yes. Claude connects through OAuth: you sign in to StickyHive and approve access, and you can disconnect anytime from Claude's Connectors list. StickyHive works through your existing Skool session and never stores your Skool password.
