For your own bookings — sign in when prompted

Searching and browsing professionals works immediately with no account. To let Claude view or create bookings on your behalf, just ask it to “sign in to SHIFT”. Claude gives you a short code and a link — approve it in your browser once, and it’s connected to your account for the rest of the conversation. No API key, no config to paste.
