Integrations

Connect agent clients to your app through one permission layer.

Arc treats Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, Cursor, and custom agents as clients requesting user-approved app actions.

Claude ChatGPT OpenClaw Cursor Custom agents
Clients

Agents are clients. Arc is the control layer.

Do not build one-off permission models for every agent surface. Define your app actions once, then expose them through the adapter that fits each client.

Claude

Controlled app actions.

Let Claude request approved actions without giving it a raw account session.

ChatGPT

Action access with approval.

Serve ChatGPT through supported tool connection paths while Arc enforces the user's grant.

Cursor and custom agents

Developer agent use cases.

Give coding and internal agents a narrow action surface for product or operational workflows.

Adapters

MCP is an adapter detail, not the product.

When a client expects MCP, Arc can use it to expose approved actions. The thing Arc adds is the permission decision before a real app action runs.

Adapter pathUse whenArc responsibility
MCP-style tool connectionThe client expects MCP-compatible tools.Expose only approved actions and enforce action policy.
Direct action APIYou control the agent or internal runtime.Authenticate the agent request and apply allow / ask / block.
Custom connectorYour app needs a specific integration path.Keep the user grant and audit model consistent.
Apps

Arc works best with action-oriented APIs.

If your app already has clear API endpoints, you can wrap the operations users want agents to perform.

Email

Read, draft, send, delete.

Allow reads and drafts, ask before sending, block deletes by default.

Calendar

Read, create, delete.

Let an agent read availability, ask before creating events, block destructive changes.

Commerce

Read orders, request returns.

Let agents help with support and commerce tasks without account-level power.

Connect

Expose your app to agents through permissions users can trust.

Start with the agent client your users are already asking for.
