What the MCP connector is for
What MCP is, what Adapt Leads' connector lets an assistant do, and what you need before you connect one.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets an AI assistant use real tools instead of guessing. Adapt Leads' connector gives your assistant tools to search the UK book, read a record, work with your lists and campaigns, and prepare changes for you to approve.
Why you would use it
- You work in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor and want your prospecting there, in the same conversation as the rest of your work.
- You want a script or agent to read your lists or reports on a schedule.
- You want an assistant to prepare work, such as a list or a campaign draft, that you then approve in the app.
The address
The connector lives at https://mcp.adaptleads.co.uk and speaks MCP over streamable HTTP. It is stateless: each call stands alone.
What an assistant can do
| Job | Needs | Example tool |
|---|---|---|
| Search the book and read one record | A default key or sign-in | search_leads, lead_detail |
| Read your plan, allowance and lists | A default key or sign-in | my_account, my_lists |
| Read campaigns, LinkedIn status, CRM, reports | The matching read permission | campaigns_list, crm_pipeline |
| Create a list, save a search, draft a campaign | The matching write permission | lists_create, campaigns_create |
| Prepare a send, a reveal, an export or a start | A write permission, then your approval in the app | reveal_lead, start_campaign |
There are 92 tools in the code today, in groups described in The connector's tool groups and the real count. Every tool, with its permission and inputs, is in MCP connector tools.
What it costs
The connector has no separate charge. Search and viewing use no export allowance, and fair-use ceilings apply. A reveal costs a credit and an export uses the allowance, but only after you approve it in the app. See Rate limits, credits and allowances.
Before you connect
- Decide how: Claude and ChatGPT sign in with your Adapt Leads account (Connect Claude to Adapt Leads, Connect ChatGPT to Adapt Leads). Other clients use a key (Connect Cursor and other clients with a key).
- Know the limits: What the connector will not do.
- Know who sees what: Connector security.
Access to the app may be limited
Sign-in can be limited to an approved list of addresses. If the connector answers 403, see Errors and what they mean.
