DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

 ### Connector traffic leaves your network
 
-Connector tools, such as GitHub, Slack, Linear, and the other claude.ai connectors, are called from Anthropic's side rather than from your runner, so when a self-hosted session uses a connector, that traffic routes through `api.anthropic.com`, not from inside your network boundary. To keep a connector out of self-hosted sessions, filter it like any other MCP server with the [`allowedMcpServers` and `deniedMcpServers` policy settings](/docs/en/managed-mcp#policy-based-control-with-allowlists-and-denylists), which apply to server-delivered connectors too. An allowlist you deploy for other servers also blocks delivered connectors. To keep connectors available alongside a URL-based allowlist, add entries that match the Anthropic proxy paths for server-delivered MCP servers:
+Anthropic calls connector tools, such as GitHub, Slack, Linear, and the other claude.ai connectors, from its own infrastructure rather than from your runner, so when Claude uses a connector in a self-hosted session, that traffic goes through `api.anthropic.com` rather than originating inside your network boundary. To keep a connector out of self-hosted sessions, filter it like any other MCP server with the [`allowedMcpServers` and `deniedMcpServers` policy settings](/docs/en/managed-mcp#policy-based-control-with-allowlists-and-denylists). Claude Code applies these settings to the connectors Anthropic delivers as well as to the servers you configure, so if you deploy an allowlist for other servers, Claude Code blocks delivered connectors too. To keep connectors available alongside a URL-based allowlist, add entries that match the Anthropic proxy paths for delivered connectors:
