# Connect

Connect Claude to any app. Stop generating text about what you could do - actually do it.

## When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need Claude to:

- **Send that email** instead of drafting it
- **Create that issue** instead of describing it
- **Post that message** instead of suggesting it
- **Update that database** instead of explaining how

## What Changes

| Without Connect | With Connect |
|-----------------|--------------|
| "Here's a draft email..." | Sends the email |
| "You should create an issue..." | Creates the issue |
| "Post this to Slack..." | Posts it |
| "Add this to Notion..." | Adds it |
