Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Woodpecker MCP to Claude Desktop
Create your Vinkius account to connect Woodpecker to Claude Desktop and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Check campaign status.
Need to see what's going on with a sequence? The `list_campaigns` tool pulls all your active campaigns. You don't have to click around in the Woodpecker platform just for a list. The `get_campaign_stats` function gives you the numbers—open rates, bounces, whatever. It feeds that data straight into Claude Desktop so your agent can write reports based on real metrics.
Manage prospect lists.
The `list_prospects` tool lets your AI client pull the current list of leads. You get immediate context about who you're emailing without opening a web tab. Want to add someone new? Use `add_prospect` to feed Woodpecker directly from Claude Desktop. It’s like having an extra data entry form built into the chat input.
Control campaign flow.
Sometimes you gotta pause things—maybe a segment is performing poorly, or you're waiting on legal sign-off. The `pause_campaign` tool lets your agent hit that button. You can also use `resume_campaign` once the green light is given. These actions keep your entire cold email sequence managed right within Claude Desktop.
