Connect Claude (MCP) and automate with routines

Add ColdPigeon as a Claude connector, then put outreach on auto mode with routines.

What you get

ColdPigeon ships a remote MCP server. Connected to Claude, your Claude can run the entire product — mine leads (with Apollo or any other connector), import them, write a unique email per lead, configure and launch agents, and read your stats — using your existing Claude subscription. No API keys, no extra LLM cost.

Connect on claude.ai (OAuth — easiest)

  1. 1In claude.ai go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. 2Enter your ColdPigeon MCP URL: https://app.coldpigeon.com/api/mcp
  3. 3Sign in to ColdPigeon when prompted and approve access. Done.

Connect Claude Desktop (access token)

  1. 1In ColdPigeon, open Dashboard → Connect to Claude and create an access token (shown once — copy it).
  2. 2Add the config below to Claude Desktop, then restart it.

claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coldpigeon": {
      "url": "https://app.coldpigeon.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer cp_live_..." }
    }
  }
}

First conversation

Ask Claude: “What can you do with ColdPigeon?” — it will list the available tools. A good first run: “Find 25 leads matching my ICP, import them to a list called Trial Batch, write a 2-step sequence for each, and prepare the emails — don't launch yet.”

Auto mode with Claude routines

Routines are scheduled tasks in Claude. Combined with the connector they make outreach hands-free:

  • “Every weekday at 8 AM: find 50 new leads matching my ICP on Apollo, write a personal 3-step sequence for each, and launch my agent.”
  • “Every Monday: review last week's reply rates per agent and draft improved subject lines for my approval.”

Your guardrails always apply: Claude operates within plan caps, per-mailbox limits, warmup schedules, and unsubscribe handling — all enforced server-side.

Managing tokens

Tokens are shown once, stored hashed, and revocable from Dashboard → Connect to Claude. Each shows when it was last used. Revoke immediately if a token leaks; the connector stops working instantly.

Still stuck? Ask an AI that can actually fix it.

Open the Sidekick in your dashboard — it has these guides built in and can inspect and fix your account directly.

Or ask Claude with the MCP connector — same guides, same tools, from any Claude app.
