Singlepane for Claude

Official Singlepane plugin marketplace for Claude.

The singlepane plugin

One plugin, three pieces:

• Singlepane MCP connector (https://ai.singlepaneapp.com/mcp) — lets Claude look up your hotels and query Singlepane data directly. On first use you'll be prompted to sign in to Singlepane to authorize the connection.
• Excel modeling skill — teaches Claude to build Excel financial models with the Singlepane Excel add-in's SP.* functions: summary P&Ls and department schedules on canonical USALI layouts, variance reports, portfolio rollups, STR comp-set dashboards, and OTB/pace reports. Requires the Singlepane Excel add-in (and a Singlepane login) for workbooks to populate with data.
• Docs skill (PowerPoint & Word) — teaches Claude to build slide decks and documents whose numbers refresh through the Singlepane Docs add-in: <<Variable>> tags in slides/paragraphs/tables backed by financials, STR, and OTB query variables — monthly performance decks, board and owner reports, lender updates. Requires the Singlepane Docs add-in (and a Singlepane login) for documents to populate with data.

More skills will ship in this same plugin over time — installed users get them automatically on update.

The step-by-step guide with screenshots lives on the website: Installing Singlepane for Claude.

Install for yourself (any plan)

Claude desktop app or claude.ai — Customize → Plugins → Add → Add marketplace → Add from a repository, paste https://github.com/singlepane-hospitality/sp-claude-plugins, Sync, then open the Singlepane plugin and click Install. On a Team or Enterprise plan this works as long as your admin has left the "User-created skills" policy on.

Claude Code (terminal or the desktop app's Code tab):

/plugin marketplace add singlepane-hospitality/sp-claude-plugins
/plugin install singlepane@singlepane

When adding the marketplace, Claude shows a standard notice about third-party sources — that's expected for any non-Anthropic marketplace.

Updates: /plugin update singlepane in Claude Code, or let Claude's periodic marketplace refresh pick it up.

Install for your whole organization (Team / Enterprise admins)

claude.ai no longer accepts a public GitHub repository as an organization marketplace, so org admins deploy the plugin from a zip instead. No GitHub account is needed.

claude.ai, the desktop app and Cowork

1. Download the current plugin zip: singlepane.zip (always the newest build; versioned copies are on the releases page).
2. In claude.ai, go to Organization settings → Plugins & skills, click Add, then Upload a plugin, and pick the zip. (Requires the Owner role.)
3. In the plugin's row menu choose Default access and pick Installed by default (members can turn it off) or Required (they can't). Available to install lists it under Discover for members to opt in.
4. Done. The Singlepane connector is bundled in the plugin and shows on its Connectors tab after upload; members connect it with their own Singlepane login. To manage it centrally, or if members can't see it, it can also be added under Organization settings → Connectors (https://ai.singlepaneapp.com/mcp).

Members get the plugin in chat and Cowork, and in Claude Code sessions signed in with their claude.ai account (synced plugins, Claude Code 2.1.273+).

Updates are manual: uploaded plugins don't auto-update. When Singlepane announces a new version, download the zip again and use Upload new version from the plugin's menu in the Inventory tab.

Claude Code managed settings (developers whose terminal sessions don't sync)

Paste this into Organization settings → Claude Code → Managed settings, or ship it via MDM / managed-settings.json. It registers a hosted catalog whose plugin source is a sha256-pinned zip on this repo's releases, so machines need no git credentials.

{
  "extraKnownMarketplaces": {
    "singlepane": {
      "source": {
        "source": "url",
        "url": "https://github.com/singlepane-hospitality/sp-claude-plugins/releases/download/latest/marketplace.json"
      },
      "autoUpdate": true
    }
  },
  "enabledPlugins": {
    "singlepane@singlepane": true
  }
}

If you use a strictKnownMarketplaces allowlist, add the same url source to it (and { "source": "skills-dir" }, or skills-directory plugins stop loading). With autoUpdate on, new versions install at the start of the next session.

claude.ai and Microsoft 365 add-in users (Claude for Excel / Word / PowerPoint)

Skills enabled in a user's claude.ai account carry into the Claude for Excel, Word and PowerPoint sidebars. The plugin above covers this once it's installed; if you'd rather distribute a single skill on its own, every merge to main also republishes the skills as .skill files:

• singlepane-excel-modeling.skill
• singlepane-docs.skill

Upload them under claude.ai → Settings → Capabilities → Skills (individuals) or Organization settings → Plugins & skills → Add → Upload a skill (admins). A .skill file does not include the Singlepane connector; add that separately if Claude should query Singlepane data directly (inside the Office add-ins the add-ins themselves provide the live data, so the connector is optional there).

Releasing (maintainers)

Every push to main that touches plugins/ runs release.yml, which calls scripts/build-release.sh and publishes:

Asset	Where	Used by
singlepane-<ver>.zip	release v<ver> (immutable)	archive source in the hosted marketplace.json
singlepane.zip	rolling release latest	org admin upload link on the website
marketplace.json	rolling release latest	Claude Code managed settings (url marketplace source)
*.skill	rolling release latest	standalone skill uploads

Bump version in plugins/singlepane/.claude-plugin/plugin.json with every plugin change. Claude Code only offers an update when that string changes, and the workflow refuses to overwrite an existing v<ver> release with different contents. The zip is built deterministically (fixed mtimes, sorted entries), so the same source always yields the same sha256. Run scripts/build-release.sh locally to preview dist/.

The in-repo .claude-plugin/marketplace.json keeps the relative ./plugins/singlepane source for people who add the GitHub repo directly; the hosted copy swaps that for the archive source because a URL-sourced marketplace can't resolve relative paths.
