About Freshchat MCP Server
Connect your Freshchat account to any AI agent to automate your customer messaging and conversation management through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Freshchat is a modern messaging software built for sales and support teams to engage with customers across web, mobile, and social channels. This MCP server enables you to track active chats, send real-time messages, and retrieve detailed user profiles directly through natural conversation.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Freshchat tools. Connect 12 tools through the Vinkius and assign role-based access — a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
Key Features
- Conversation Oversight — List all active chats, fetch detailed conversation metadata, and monitor chat statuses (open, resolved) instantly.
- Real-time Messaging — Post new messages to existing conversations to keep your support workflows moving fast.
- User & Customer Data — Access detailed profile information for chat participants and search for users by email address.
- Support Team Insights — List all support agents and team members to maintain full context of who is online and available.
