Questions

What can the AI do in Frill?

It can search, list and read ideas, comments, votes, followers, statuses, topics, announcements and announcement categories. It can create and update ideas, followers and announcements, post comments, add votes and delete an idea.

Does the AI see my Frill credentials?

No. Your Frill API key is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with lookups only. Deleting an idea removes its votes and comments permanently, and publishing an announcement shows it to your users, so those actions can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT, open Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced, turn on Developer mode and add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

PipMCP has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Frill account.

Who is the author when the AI posts?

Frill ties ideas, comments and votes to a follower. The AI uses the follower you name, and can find one by email, so a comment or vote shows up under that person in Frill.
