Claude can work with the AccessOwl API from its general knowledge, but skills make it fast and consistent: a skill teaches Claude exactly how to handle one AccessOwl task, from which endpoints to call to how to present the answer and when to ask for confirmation. AccessOwl provides an official plugin, ClaudeTag for AccessOwl, bundling one skill per task. You install it by adding AccessOwl’s public GitHub repository as a plugin source in Claude’s admin settings. With the plugin installed, everyone in the channel gets the same behavior: read-only questions answered in one message, one confirmation before anything is created, and requests that always follow your approval policies.

The skills

See Manage access with Claude Tag for full conversation examples.

Install the plugin

You need the Claude Tag connection to AccessOwl set up first. Then, as a Claude organization admin:
1

Register the AccessOwl skills repository

In claude.ai admin settings, add the AccessOwl skills repository (link coming soon) as an organization plugin source and leave Sync automatically on. Updates then reach your workspace on their own; new threads pick them up automatically.
2

Attach the plugin

Open the Access bundle that holds your AccessOwl API credential, select + in its Plugins section, and add ClaudeTag for AccessOwl from the marketplace.

Add the recommended instructions

In the custom instructions for your workspace or the access channel, paste:
This keeps Claude on the skills instead of improvising.
The plugin also works in Claude Code: add the same repository as a plugin marketplace and the skills are available in your terminal.
