Patreon API and MCP server: Let your AI agent run your Patreon page.

Yes, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents can work in your Patreon account. Patreon has an API but no MCP server. Cotlet.dev connects your creator account so an AI agent can manage posts, members and tiers through your own session.

What you can ask

Turn notes into tier-locked drafts

Schedule posts without clashes

Message every paid member of a tier

Draft replies to unanswered Chats

Export members with new and canceled memberships

Connect in 2 minutes

Get your API key at https://cotlet.dev/app and export it as COTLET_API_KEY.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http cotlet https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 --header "Authorization: Bearer $COTLET_API_KEY"

ChatGPT

Settings → Apps → add connector URL https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1, then sign in with Cotlet.dev. No API key needed.

Cursor

Copy .cursor/mcp.json from this repo into your project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cotlet": {
      "url": "https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${COTLET_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run it locally (stdio)

This repo is a real MCP server. It speaks MCP over stdio, lists its Patreon tools without any key, and forwards every tool call to the hosted Cotlet.dev server. The hosted URL above stays the recommended way. Use this when your client only starts local servers.

{"mcpServers":{"patreon":{"command":"uvx","args":["patreon-mcp"],"env":{"COTLET_API_KEY":"your-key"}}}}

Or with Docker:

docker build -t patreon-mcp .
docker run -i --rm -e COTLET_API_KEY patreon-mcp

Tools: patreon_guide, patreon_status, patreon_open, patreon_read, patreon_click, patreon_type, patreon_close. Without COTLET_API_KEY a tool call answers: "Set COTLET_API_KEY. Get a key at https://cotlet.dev/app".

Command line

Python 3.10+, nothing else to install. From PyPI:

pip install patreon-mcp        # or run it once: uvx patreon-mcp connect
patreon-mcp connect

Or straight from this repo:

export COTLET_API_KEY="your-key"
python3 patreon_agent.py connect   # ready config for Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT
python3 patreon_agent.py status    # is Patreon ready in your Cotlet.dev account
python3 patreon_agent.py guide     # Patreon screens and sign-in link
python3 patreon_agent.py read      # open Patreon, read the page, close the browser
python3 patreon_agent.py tools     # list Cotlet.dev tools
python3 patreon_agent.py serve     # start the stdio MCP server (same as no argument)

Questions from Patreon users

Can I use the Patreon API without an AI agent?

Yes. Call Cotlet's REST API from a script or an HTTP step with your Cotlet key. MCP is the alternative for AI agents; you do not need to connect an agent to use REST.

How do I get access?

Create a free account at https://cotlet.dev, open Patreon under Integrations in the console and log in to your creator account in its Cloud Browser. The trial starts when you sign up, no card asked.

How do I connect Patreon to ChatGPT or Claude?

Sign up at cotlet.dev, log in to Patreon once in its Cloud Browser and add Cotlet to ChatGPT or Claude, following the steps in your console. No API key is needed.

What can ChatGPT do in Patreon?

With Cotlet, ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents can schedule Patreon posts, message new patrons and mass message patrons in a tier. You ask in plain words, and anything that reaches other people waits for your OK first.

Can it message members who pay nothing?

No. Patreon allows direct messages only to current or former paid members. For free members, publish a public post with create_post and publish_post.
