Give Claude Tag a live Flex preview.
The Flex custom connector lets Claude Tag find registered repositories, create or refresh an exact branch preview, continue editing inside the Flex runtime, and report a stable URL for review.

Connect the credential and the workflow instructions
Claude Tag uses two deliberately separate pieces: the custom connector holds the Flex credential and exposes tools; the Flex plugin teaches Claude the preview workflow. Never put the credential in the plugin archive.
-
1
Create a least-privilege key
In Flex, create an API key named for the Claude Tag access bundle. Grant only
ClaudeTagPreviewsand set an expiry date. -
2
Add the custom connector
Create a remote custom connector named Flex with the endpoint
https://flexenv.com/mcp/previews. -
3
Store the bearer header
Choose no OAuth authentication and add
Authorization: Bearer <Flex API key>as an additional request header in Claude's credential store. -
4
Attach the access bundle
Attach the Flex connector and credential to the intended Claude Tag access bundle or Slack channel.
-
5
Upload the Flex plugin
Obtain the versioned Flex plugin ZIP and checksum. In organization settings, upload it to a manual marketplace and enable it on the same access bundle.
-
6
Verify before mutation
Start a new Claude Tag task. Confirm the connector exposes exactly twelve tools and smoke-test
flex_list_repositories.
What Claude can see
Tenant-scoped sources, never arbitrary clone URLs
The bearer key identifies one Flex tenant. Repository discovery returns only repositories already registered to that tenant, including relevant product memberships and repository notes. Preview tools accept those repository IDs rather than an arbitrary Git URL.
Exact source selection
Claude can select a branch and commit, retain a separate Flex working branch, and refresh the preview without overwriting the source branch.
Stable preview iteration
Follow-up changes continue in the existing preview workspace so reviewers keep one stable URL.
Explicit failures
Missing mappings, ambiguous product repositories, and Flex runtime failures are reported instead of silently skipping preview creation.
Credential rotation
Replace, verify, then revoke.
Create a replacement scoped key, update Claude's stored connector credential, confirm flex_list_repositories succeeds, and only then revoke the old key.
