ManyChat MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to ManyChat and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 34 ManyChat actions (14 reads, 16 writes and 4 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the ManyChat credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces ManyChat's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect ManyChat in three steps.

  1. 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.

  2. 02

    Connect ManyChat.

    Bearer token. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

Top actions

The ManyChat API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 3 of ManyChat's 3 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the ManyChat actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

  1. Readread

    List the page's tags in ManyChat and tell me what stands out.

  2. Writewrite

    Create a tag in ManyChat. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.

    callsmanychat.tags.create

Governance for ManyChat

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

4 ManyChat actions are destructive. These are all of them:

  • Delete a tag by idmanychat.tags.delete
  • Delete a tag by namemanychat.tags.delete_by_name
  • Remove a tag from a subscriber by tag idmanychat.subscriber_tags.remove
  • Remove a tag from a subscriber by tag namemanychat.subscriber_tags.remove_by_name

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

domanychat.tags.deleteconfirm_policy: human

Delete a tag by id?

Cost

What ManyChat costs on actionlake.

Every ManyChat action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call ManyChat refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. 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.

Questions

The ManyChat MCP server, answered.

Is there a ManyChat MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 34 ManyChat actions across subscribers, bot fields, subscriber tags and tags, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by ManyChat.

What do I need to connect ManyChat?

ManyChat API key. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "manychat" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in ManyChat?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 4 ManyChat actions are destructive, including delete a tag by id, delete a tag by name and remove a tag from a subscriber by tag id. 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 ManyChat API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the ManyChat service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (13 ManyChat actions can be), which never reaches ManyChat.

What does a ManyChat action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (34 ManyChat actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls ManyChat 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 ManyChat API does it cover?

The ManyChat Page API (OpenAPI 3.0.0) at api.manychat.com. It is built from ManyChat's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 34 actions in 12 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my ManyChat 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 ManyChat 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.
