Kit (ConvertKit) + Claude
Drive Kit (formerly ConvertKit) — creator-focused email marketing — from any AI agent: subscribers, tags, forms, sequences, broadcasts, custom fields. 14 tools, v4 API with API-key Bearer auth.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
CONVERTKIT_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
convertkit.com under v4).
Setup:
- Sign in to https://app.kit.com → Advanced Settings → API → Show v4 API key.
- Copy the v4 API key. Set
CONVERTKIT_API_KEY. - (Optional, only for older v3 endpoints not used here): the v3 API uses an
api_secret— not needed for this connector.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${CONVERTKIT_API_KEY}. The adapter handles this via BEARER_TOKEN.
Subscriber model: every email is a 'subscriber'. State machine: active, inactive (manually paused), bounced, complained, cancelled. New subscribers default to active. Adding to a sequence does NOT create an active subscriber automatically — they must be active first.
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Claude
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Recommended path — works on claude.ai web without editing any config file.
- In Claude, open Customize → Connectors.
- Click +, then Add custom connector.
- Enter a name, e.g.
Kit (ConvertKit), and the remote MCP server URLhttps://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID, then click Add. - Click Connect and sign in to AnythingMCP (OAuth) to allow access.
