Follow Up Boss connector for Claude

A tiny self-hosted MCP server that connects one Follow Up Boss account to Claude. You deploy your own copy, it holds your own API key, and Claude talks to it over a private link. No middleman, no per-task fees, full CRM access.

Non-technical setup guide: GUIDE.md (about 20 minutes, no coding)

Deploy your own

After deploying, your connector URL is:

https://YOUR-APP.vercel.app/c/YOUR-MCP-SECRET/mcp

Add that as a custom connector in Claude (Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector).

How it works

• Next.js App Router + mcp-handler, stateless Streamable HTTP (no Redis)

• The URL path carries a long random secret; the API route checks it (constant-time) before anything runs, and wrong or missing secrets get a bare 404

• 25 curated tools cover the everyday CRM surface (people, leads via /events so action plans fire, notes, tasks, calls, texts, appointments, deals, pipelines, stages, users, action plans, custom fields, timeline)

• One fub_api raw tool covers the entire rest of the Follow Up Boss REST API

• DELETE calls are blocked unless you set FUB_ALLOW_DELETE=1

• New leads are created through POST /v1/events, the supported intake path, so Follow Up Boss deduplicates and fires lead flows exactly as if the lead came from a website

Environment variables

Local development

npm install
cp .env.example .env.local   # fill in FUB_API_KEY and MCP_SECRET
npm run dev
# connector at http://localhost:3000/c/YOUR-MCP-SECRET/mcp

Security model

The secret link is the whole gate, so treat the full URL like a password. It is checked in constant time, invalid attempts get an anonymous 404, the internal /api path cannot be reached without the secret, and the MCP layer never sees the secret (the URL is normalized before it is handed off). Rotate by changing MCP_SECRET and redeploying; revoke everything by deleting the API key in Follow Up Boss.
