What does the Projectworks MCP Design Kit do?
Ask Projectworks a question, the way you do now.
There's no prompt to learn. Once it's installed, Claude loads the skill whenever the Projectworks MCP returns data, from a quick lookup to a full forecast.
Work in Claude with the Projectworks look you already know.
Going between Claude and Projectworks feels like one experience, and the Open in Projectworks link on every answer takes you straight to the source.
Get a clear view.
The skill looks at what Projectworks sends back and picks the best way to show it. Your team’s hours become a bar chart against capacity, and a single project becomes a summary card. It only uses numbers from Projectworks, shows where each figure comes from, and suggests two or three follow-up questions you can click.
