Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Topicary

Ask your AI to find a topic in your Topicary docs, draft a new one, or update the status of topics that are ready. It can read and edit topics, reusable components and maps, and look up your publication targets. Routine documentation work gets done from the chat instead of clicking through each topic.

Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.

Try asking

  • “Which topics are still in draft?”

    The AI lists topics filtered by status and shows their titles and types.

  • “Create a task topic called 'Reset your password'.”

    It creates the topic with that title and type, plus content and metadata if you give it some.

  • “Mark the 'Install the agent' topic as ready for review.”

    It finds the topic and updates only its status. Everything else stays as it was.

What your AI can do

Topics

List topics by type or status, read content and metadata, create new topics and update only the fields you change.

Components and maps

Read, create and update reusable components and the maps that organise topics into a document.

Publication targets

List and read the targets your content is published to.

  • “Show me the content of the legal disclaimer component.”

    It finds the reusable component and reads its title and content.

  • “Make a new map for the Admin Guide.”

    It creates a map with that title and an optional description, ready to organise topics.

  • “Where do we publish our content?”

    It lists your publication targets and can read the details of each one.

Questions

What can the AI do in Topicary?

It can list and read topics, reusable components, maps and publication targets. It can create topics, components and maps, and update their titles, content, status, type and metadata. It can also delete a topic if you switch that tool on.

Does the AI see my Topicary credentials?

No. Your Topicary 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 topic is permanent and cannot be undone, so it can require your approval before it runs. 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 Topicary account. Topicary's REST API needs the Enterprise capability tier, which you request under Settings > Billing in Topicary.

Who can create a Topicary API key?

You must be an Admin on the project. The key is created under Settings > API Keys, starts with tk_ and is shown only once, so copy it before you close the dialog.
