Plan@Job in Claude and ChatGPT
Tell Claude what happened.
Your desk does the rest.
Connect Plan@Job to Claude or ChatGPT and run your operator desk from a chat: which jobs need you, which subcontractors have not priced, what to follow up next. Your AI staff keep chasing around the clock. Awards, prices and payments still come to you.
What Claude does on your desk
The connection gives Claude the same tools the in-app assistant has, inside your permissions. Four things you will do with it in the first week.
Find and review your jobs
Which jobs need you today, which have prices in, what a quote says line by line. Claude reads the job and its quotes the way you would on the desk.
list_jobs, get_job
Work the subcontracting desk
Put a job on the desk, see who was told, who opened it and who priced it, read a contact's history and save the team brief.
start_subcontracting_mission, get_contact_history, save_subcontracting_brief
Save the follow-up
Decide the next useful action in the conversation and save it as an internal follow-up, then close or move it when it is done.
create_follow_up, update_follow_up
What Claude never does
The line that keeps the whole thing safe to hand to a stranger. Claude runs the desk. Your AI staff run the chasing. You hold the gates that matter.
Send a WhatsApp, an email or an ad
Those are your AI staff and your desk, running on the server on your dial, with quiet hours and a daily cap.
Award work, set a price or move money
Every one of those comes to you as a card, on every setting. Claude can prepare the ground; it cannot commit you.
See anything your account cannot see
The connection runs inside your own permissions, on your own company, and you can switch it off in your settings at any time.
Connect in three steps
1
Press Connect
Connect to Claude opens Plan@Job in Claude's connector directory: press Connect there. Connect to ChatGPT opens the Plan@Job plugin in ChatGPT: press Install there. Nothing to paste in either.
2
Sign in and choose your permissions
You sign in on Plan@Job, not in Claude, and tick the permissions you are handing over. Reading and updating your records are ticked for you; sending messages, spending credits, approvals and money records stay off until you tick them.
3
Ask it something real
Start with your own desk: what is waiting on you this morning, which subcontractor has not priced, what to write to the client. The starter prompts below are a good first minute.
Use it in Claude Code
Copy this and send it to Claude Code. It adds the connection itself; you sign in once.
Set up Plan@Job for me so I can run my contractor desk from here. 1. Add the connection: run `claude mcp add --transport http --scope user jobdesk https://planajob.com/api/mcp`. 2. Tell me to type /mcp, choose jobdesk, then Authenticate, and sign in on Plan@Job in the browser that opens. If jobdesk is not listed yet, tell me to restart Claude Code first. 3. When I say it is connected, use the jobdesk tools to check my account and tell me what is waiting on me today.
Another AI app? Paste the connection
Any client that supports remote MCP with sign-in can use the same connection. Add it as a custom connector with this URL, then sign in on Plan@Job when asked.
https://planajob.com/api/mcpGrok and Gemini
Grok. Connectors, New Connector, Custom, then the URL and sign-in. Business and Enterprise administrators may need to provision it.
Gemini CLI. gemini mcp add --transport http jobdesk https://planajob.com/api/mcp, then /mcp auth jobdesk.
Your first minute
Four prompts written for an operator's desk. Press Try in Claude or Try in ChatGPT, or copy one into your AI, and see your own jobs come back.

Improve my company profile

Move my jobs forward
Look at my Plan@Job jobs and subcontracting desk. Pick the next useful actions and explain what is waiting on me.
Plan a subcontractor follow-up
Review the contact history for my subcontracting job. Help me write a team brief and save an internal follow-up for the next useful action.
Your company. Your permissions.
- Access stays inside your account and your current role. It never gives Claude control of the Plan@Job platform, only of what you could do yourself.
- Setup tools work before your account is opened. Work tools open with the account, the same as the desk.
- Disconnect in Settings, Connect your AI, at any time. Disconnecting stops future access; what you already shared stays subject to your AI provider's own settings.
Questions people ask before they connect
Do I need an operator account?
Yes. The connection is part of an operator account, the contractor business that runs the desk. If you are not an operator yet, the waitlist is the way in, and the connection is waiting for you on the other side.
Do I need a paid Claude or ChatGPT plan?
Connectors are a feature of Claude and of ChatGPT, so your plan there decides whether they are available to you. Plan@Job charges nothing extra for the connection.
Can Claude award work, send a quote or pay someone?
No. Awards, prices, payments and the first message to a new client always come to you as a card, on every setting, whether they were started by Claude, by the in-app assistant or by your AI staff.
Does this replace the AI staff?
No. Your AI staff run on the server every fifteen minutes and do the chasing whether or not you are in a chat. Claude is how you work the desk when you are.
What about ChatGPT?
Same thing, one click. Press Connect to ChatGPT: it opens the Plan@Job plugin in ChatGPT, you press Install and sign in on Plan@Job. The plugin is published by OpenAI, so there is nothing to paste.
Where do I see what it did?
Every action Claude takes through the connection is in your activity trail, with a receipt, next to what your AI staff did. Settings, Connect your AI, shows every connection and lets you revoke one.
Run the desk from a chat. Keep the decisions.
Operators come in through the waitlist. The connection is part of the account you walk into.
