MCP is the standard way for AI assistants to use outside tools. Cofferdock's MCP server lets an assistant like Claude make an image, a PDF or a QR code in the middle of a conversation and hand you the file.
Where it comes from
People are starting to get things done by talking to AI assistants. If Cofferdock's tools live inside the chat, anyone can use them without opening n8n or writing code.

Born inside Cofferdock
An MCP server at api.cofferdock.com/mcp with the 25 tools of the moment, built automatically from the same description of the API that feeds its documentation. Plus a setup page for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, n8n and ChatGPT.

Made for people, not just developers
Every one of the 106 options explained to the assistant, every tool marked as safe (none of them deletes anything), and every file returned as a link, because Claude on the web doesn't show images that come from tools.

Sign in with Cofferdock
No key to copy: you add the connector, sign in and allow it. The assistant gets a key that expires within the hour and renews itself, and you can cut it off from your dashboard at any moment. Tested with Claude on the web the same day.

In the directories
Listed in the official MCP Registry, which other directories copy from, and in Smithery.

From 25 to 43 tools
When Cofferdock grew to 43 tools, the MCP got all of them at once, because both come from the same description of the API.
