Basecamp integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex

One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in Basecamp never means pasting credentials into a prompt.

Use Basecamp from Claude Code

Bring Basecamp context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.

Automate Basecamp with Codex

Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.

Connect open agent workflows

Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.
