7878The [Claude connector directory](https://claude.com/connectors) is the canonical catalog of vetted servers. **Every connector in the directory that is not labeled "Made by Anthropic" is accessible in Claude Desktop on 3P** and can be deployed via `managedMcpServers` or installed by users. Connectors labeled "Made by Anthropic" are hosted on Anthropic infrastructure and are available only in standard Claude Desktop.

81 Some connectors return [MCP Apps](/docs/connectors/building/mcp-apps/getting-started), interactive widgets that Claude Desktop renders in place of a plain-text tool result. Each widget loads in a sandboxed iframe on `*.claudemcpcontent.com`, and setting [`disableNonessentialServices`](/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/configuration#disablenonessentialservices) to `true` blocks that origin, so Claude Desktop shows the connector's text result instead of the widget. The same key also blocks artifact previews, connector favicons, and the connector directory lookup. To keep MCP Apps rendering, leave `disableNonessentialServices` unset or `false`, and allow the widget hosts listed under [Required egress paths](/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/telemetry#required-egress-paths) at your perimeter firewall.

55Because inference runs in your cloud tenant, Claude Desktop on 3P operates inside whatever compliance boundary your provider and region give you. The desktop application itself contacts Anthropic-operated hosts only to download the VM workspace bundle and Claude CLI binary (always required), and for crash reporting, product analytics, non-essential services (connector favicons, artifact previews, and the MCP registry), and auto-updates. Each of the latter four can be disabled independently via managed configuration.

5757With Anthropic-bound telemetry, non-essential services, and updates all disabled, the only remaining Anthropic-operated egress is `downloads.claude.ai` for the VM bundle at session start. Beyond that, the compliance posture of your deployment is determined by your inference provider. See [Telemetry and egress](/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/telemetry) for the full set of network paths and how to lock them down.

35Cosmetic third-party fetches: favicons for connectors shown in the UI, the MCP connector directory lookup, the sandboxed iframe that renders interactive artifact previews, and the sandboxed iframes that render [MCP Apps](/docs/connectors/building/mcp-apps/getting-started), the interactive widgets connectors can display. Disabling these degrades the UI (generic icons, no directory suggestions, static artifact previews, and connector tool results shown as text instead of widgets) but doesn't affect functionality.
