Confirmed means the vendor documents it (linked). It doesn't mean IonBin has tested it. AI-platform and human steps need no source.

Human approval

You approve calendar changes before Reclaim writes them.

Watch out for

Keep the human approval step: You approve calendar changes before Reclaim writes them.

Starter prompt

Goal: Make your task list fit your calendar, every week. Tools involved: ClickUp, Claude, Reclaim. Your part: provides this week’s tasks and estimates; proposes focus blocks by priority and deadline; schedules the approved blocks; changes are staged in preview mode until you apply them. Work step by step, show me each draft or proposed change, and wait for my approval before anything is sent, published, signed, filed or changed in a live system.

What we checked

  • Reclaim MCP is at https://mcp.reclaim.ai. Reclaim has dedicated setup guides for Claude and ChatGPT, and any MCP client can connect to the server URL. Connected tools can read your schedule, find availability, summarize your week and take scheduling actions.
  • Preview Mode. Reclaim stages scheduling changes from AI tools in Preview Mode, where you review them in Reclaim before they’re applied. We didn’t find a per-client setting to change this.
  • Version. Reclaim’s MCP article covers Reclaim 2.0. Accounts created after May 2026 are already on it; older accounts can upgrade from a banner in the app.
  • ClickUp MCP provides the week’s tasks with assignees, priorities and due dates.

Set it up

  1. Connect ClickUp and Reclaim to Claude.
  2. Ask Claude to list this week’s tasks with estimates and deadlines, then propose focus blocks by priority.
  3. Approve the plan in chat, then let Claude send it to Reclaim.
  4. Review the staged changes in Reclaim’s Preview Mode and apply them.
