Keep Basecamp projects moving with Superconductor agents
Connect Basecamp to Superconductor and your agents can now catch up on a project, pick up the to-dos assigned to you, and post updates to the team as they go. Superconductor runs that work in a shared session, so your team can see what the agent read in Basecamp and what it posted.
Superconductor lets you and your team chat with coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Pi, and more in shared, secure cloud sessions.
With our Basecamp integration, you can
- Get a summary of what changed on a project and what still needs you
- Turn notes or a plan into to-dos with owners and due dates
- Post a progress update on a project's message board when the work is done
Try asking
- Read the "Q3 newsletter" message in our Marketing project in Basecamp, write the draft it asks for, and post it as a comment on the thread.
- Go through my Basecamp notifications and tell me which ones need a reply from me, with a draft reply for each.
- List the overdue to-dos across all my Basecamp projects, grouped by project. Don't change anything.

Questions
- Can Claude Code use the Basecamp MCP server?
- Yes. Once you connect Basecamp in Superconductor, every coding agent you run there, including Claude Code, can use Basecamp's hosted MCP server at
mcp.basecamp.com. There's nothing to install locally. - How do I connect Basecamp?
- Click Connect on the Basecamp card in Workspace Settings → Connectors and sign in with Basecamp. Choose Read only on Basecamp's approval screen if agents should only read.
- Can agents delete things in Basecamp?
- With Read and write access they can move items to the Basecamp trash, where you can restore them, and some deletes are permanent. What they post shows up under the signed-in person's name.
