Questions people ask
Does Claude need my API key?
No. Claude connects with sign-in: your email, a 6-digit code, and a consent screen where you choose what Claude may do.
Can I make Claude read-only?
Yes. Pick Allow read-only on the consent screen. Claude can then check addresses and prices but cannot mail anything.
Can the assistant mail a letter without asking me?
No. It must check the address, get a price, show you the recipient, the content and the price, and get your explicit yes before every letter. A read-only connection cannot send at all.
Can I mail a letter outside the US?
Not yet. United States addresses only.
