Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Iris Works MCP Server Show my upcoming photography sessions and their workflow to-dos."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Connect Iris Works to ChatGPT, Claude and other AI agents through Cotlet. Work with clients, photography sessions, contracts and invoices in your own signed-in account. Cotlet is independent and not affiliated with Iris Works. If Iris Works offers an official API for your needs, we recommend it.

}This repo is a real MCP server. It speaks MCP over stdio, lists its Iris Works tools without any key, and forwards every tool call to the hosted Cotlet.dev server. The hosted URL above stays the recommended way. Use this when your client only starts local servers.
{"mcpServers": {"iris-works": {"command": "python3", "args": ["/absolute/path/to/iris-works-mcp/iris_works_agent.py", "serve"], "env": {"COTLET_API_KEY": "your-key"}}}}Or with Docker:
docker build -t iris-works-mcp .
docker run -i --rm -e COTLET_API_KEY iris-works-mcpTools: iris_works_guide, iris_works_status, iris_works_open, iris_works_read, iris_works_click, iris_works_type, iris_works_close. Without COTLET_API_KEY a tool call answers: "Set COTLET_API_KEY. Get a key at https://cotlet.dev/app".

Scored across 7 tools
Each tool has a distinct role in a browser-automation workflow: guide, readiness check, open, read, click, type, and close. There is little risk of confusing one tool with another.
All tools use the same iris_works_ prefix and snake_case convention. The suffixes mix action verbs (open, read, click, type, close) with noun-like helpers (guide, status), but the pattern remains highly readable.
Seven tools is well-scoped for a browser-automation server. Each tool supports a necessary step in the session lifecycle, with no obvious filler.
The core loop is covered: check readiness, open a page, inspect it, click, type, and close. Some advanced browser operations such as scrolling, waiting, or navigation to arbitrary URLs may be missing, but basic workflows are supported.
Create contacts, move deals, send proposals and invoices, read your inbox, from Claude or ChatGPT.
Connect ChatGPT and Claude to Fortnox: invoices, customers, reports. Every write needs your OK.
