Where your password goes
To keep you signed in to Sakai, the Sakai-MCP server stores your Student ID and password encrypted, and only uses them to log in to sakai.ug.edu.gh. Details

Downloads just work
Files Claude gives you come with their own download link. You won't see the Sakai login page.

If Claude says it can't connect
Wait a minute and try again: the free server sleeps when nobody uses it. If it asks you to sign in again, click Connect next to Sakai-MCP in claude.ai's connectors.
