Chatwoot MCP server for AI agents.
actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Chatwoot and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 155 Chatwoot actions (67 reads, 67 writes and 21 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Chatwoot credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Chatwoot's limits and records every call.
100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up
Connect Chatwoot in three steps.
- 01
Add actionlake to Claude.
Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

The Chatwoot API, shaped for agents.

Questions
The Chatwoot MCP server, answered.
Is there a Chatwoot MCP server for Claude?
Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 155 Chatwoot actions across conversations, contacts, inboxes and reports, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Chatwoot.
What do I need to connect Chatwoot?
Chatwoot access token: a user's token from Profile Settings > Access Token for the Application API, or a Platform…. Plus your account id and your host. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "chatwoot" } lists exactly what to paste.
Can an AI agent delete or change things in Chatwoot?
Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 21 Chatwoot actions are destructive, including remove an Agent from Account, delete a team and delete Contact. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.
Will an AI agent use up my Chatwoot API limit?
actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Chatwoot service file: 3,000 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (64 Chatwoot actions can be), which never reaches Chatwoot.
What does a Chatwoot action cost?
One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (155 Chatwoot actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Chatwoot refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.
Which Chatwoot API does it cover?
The Chatwoot API (OpenAPI 3.1, swagger/swagger.json on the develop branch) at app.chatwoot.com by default, or the base URL set when you connect. It is built from Chatwoot's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 155 actions in 39 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).
Can I combine Chatwoot with my other systems?
Yes. ask joins Chatwoot to NetSuite or HubSpot CRM on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Chatwoot maps crm.contact, which 192 other connectors also map.
Does actionlake keep my Chatwoot data, and where?
actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Chatwoot credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.
Which AI clients can use it?
Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
