Connect Reepl to AI Tools With MCP
Set up MCP connectors to use Reepl with Claude, Cursor, and other AI tools that support the Model Context Protocol
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI tools interact with Reepl directly. This means you can create posts, manage contacts, and access your Reepl data from within AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible tools. This guide walks you through the setup.
You need a Reepl account with API access and an AI tool that supports MCP (such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, or another MCP client). Check Settings > Apps & API for your credentials.
Understand what MCP enables
MCP gives AI tools the ability to:
- Create and edit draft posts in your Reepl workspace
- Read your content calendar and scheduled posts
- Access your CRM contacts and lists
- Pull analytics data for analysis
- Manage templates and prompts
Instead of switching between Reepl and your AI tool, you can do everything from one interface.
Get your MCP connection details
Navigate to Settings > Apps & API or open the Apps & API page. Under the MCP section, you will find:
- Server URL -- The endpoint your AI tool connects to
- API key -- Your authentication credential
- Available tools -- A list of Reepl capabilities exposed via MCP
Copy these details. You will paste them into your AI tool's configuration.
Configure your AI tool
The setup varies by tool. Here are the most common:
Claude Desktop: Open Claude's settings, navigate to the MCP section, and add a new server. Paste the Reepl server URL and API key.
Cursor: Open Cursor settings, go to the MCP configuration panel, and add the Reepl server with your credentials.
Other MCP clients: Consult the tool's documentation for adding an MCP server. The connection requires the server URL and API key from the previous step.
See the MCP Connectors reference for detailed setup instructions for each supported tool.
Test the connection
After configuring, test that the connection works:
- Ask your AI tool to list your recent Reepl drafts or scheduled posts
- Try creating a draft post through the AI tool
- Verify the draft appears in your Reepl content creator
If the connection fails, double-check your API key and server URL. Ensure your Reepl plan includes API access.
Use MCP in your workflow
With the connection active, you can work with Reepl through natural language in your AI tool:
- "Create a LinkedIn post about remote work productivity tips"
- "Show me my scheduled posts for this week"
- "Add this contact to my Prospects list"
- "What were my top-performing posts last month?"
The AI tool translates your request into Reepl API calls and returns the results.
Manage access and security
Review your MCP connections periodically:
- Rotate your API key if you suspect it has been compromised (regenerate at Settings > Apps & API)
- Remove MCP connections from tools you no longer use
- Check the AI Models settings to ensure the correct AI model is being used for MCP-initiated content generation
MCP bridges Reepl and your AI workflow, eliminating context-switching and letting you manage your LinkedIn presence from wherever you work best.
