Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Makeswift

Ask your AI which pages a Makeswift site has, which ones are offline, or to add a new page at /pricing. It can create and update sites, pages and locales, change a page's path or online status, and delete a page if you allow it. Site housekeeping happens in a chat instead of the builder's settings.

Questions

What can the AI do in Makeswift?

The AI can list and read sites, pages and locales. It can create sites, pages and locales, update them, take a page offline or back online, and delete a page.

Does the AI see my Makeswift credentials?

No. Your Makeswift 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 read-only. Deleting a page is permanent and taking a page offline hides it from your live site, and both can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then 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 Makeswift account.

Can the AI edit the content on my pages?

No. The Makeswift tools work with sites, pages and locales: names, pathnames, online status and domains. The content and design of a page are still edited in the Makeswift builder.
