Pipedream MCP lets you connect ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or any other chatbot to all the tools you already use. Explore the available apps and tools at [mcp.pipedream.com](https://mcp.pipedream.com).
If you're a developer looking to use Pipedream MCP to make tool calls on behalf of your users in an app you're building, check out the [developer docs](/connect/mcp/developers).

Connect any MCP-compatible client
* When prompted, sign in or sign up for a free account
* Select the apps you want to enable for Pipedream MCP
* Authorize access for the MCP client
Pipedream MCP accounts are currently separate from your [pipedream.com](https://pipedream.com) account.
Once connected, ask the chatbot or agent to do whatever you want with the apps you enabled. For example:
* "Help me draft a product update based on my team's recently completed Linear tickets" ([Linear](https://mcp.pipedream.com/app/linear))
* “Help me prep for external meetings tomorrow by telling me about who I'm meeting with" ([Google Calendar](https://mcp.pipedream.com/app/google_calendar))
* “Explore my PostgreSQL database and tell me about the most recent 10 customers” ([PostgreSQL](https://mcp.pipedream.com/app/postgres))
* “Get yesterday's revenue from Stripe and send me a Slack message with the summary” ([Stripe](https://mcp.pipedream.com/app/stripe), [Slack](https://mcp.pipedream.com/app/slack))
## MCP Clients
Pipedream MCP works out of the box for any chat app or AI agent that supports MCP.
**MCP tool name character limits**: The [official MCP specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/draft/server/tools#tool-names) recommends a 128-character limit for tool names, but each client can define its own limit.
Tool names include the MCP server name you choose when adding it - for example, naming the server *"My Pipedream Automation MCP Server"* adds 34 characters to every tool name, while naming it *"PD"* only adds 2. If you encounter tool name length issues, try using a shorter server name.
