The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi

Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted Customer.io MCP server that lets an assistant query customers, segments, campaigns and message deliveries, and send transactional email or broadcasts.

What you can do
  • Search and inspect people: search customers by segment or attribute filters, read a person's attributes, segments and received messages
  • Browse workspace structure: list segments, campaigns, exports and reusable collections, and fetch a single campaign
  • Review performance: get delivery and engagement metrics for a campaign over time, and list sent messages filtered by type, campaign or newsletter
  • Send messages: deliver a transactional email from a template, or trigger an API-triggered broadcast to its resolved recipients
  • Manage the service itself: check monthly usage, request a missing feature, upgrade plans or cancel a subscription
When to use it
Useful when you work in Customer.io and want an assistant to answer questions about customers, segments, campaign performance and recent deliveries, or to send a transactional email or trigger a broadcast without leaving the chat.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local install. Connect with the endpoint URL only and sign in through OAuth, pasting your Customer.io API key(s) on the login page, which are validated and stored per user. A free plan allows 50 tool calls per month; paid plans are available.
Before you install
Two tools act on real recipients: sending a transactional email and triggering a broadcast deliver immediately, so confirm before use. Your Customer.io API credentials are entered on the hosted service and stored per user, so trust in that provider matters. Paid plans involve payment through a checkout link, and cancellation gives no refund for the current period. Free tier is capped at 50 calls per month.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Customer.io MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fcustomerio/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

README

Customer.io MCP by usefulapi

Manage your Customer.io people, segments, campaigns, and messaging from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Hosted, no local install — connect with your Customer.io API credentials.

Live endpoint: https://customerio.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/customerio

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://customerio.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http customerio https://customerio.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "customerio": {      "url": "https://customerio.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Customer.io credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/customerio/

On first connect you'll paste your Customer.io API key(s). It's validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you.
