Claude

ChatGPT is the live host today.

Claude Desktop and Claude Code are a planned MCP host for POINTS. Neither is QA-passed on production, and POINTS does not publish a date.

This page will carry the connection guide once the host passes QA on production. Until then, ChatGPT is the host to use; see the ChatGPT guide.

Host status comes from /docs/catalog.json. For how any MCP host discovers POINTS, see Discovery.
